FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- Manassas, Virginia -- June 6,
2007 -- Doane Pet Care is announcing today a voluntary
recall on a specific single lot of 55 pound bonus bags
of Ol' Roy Complete Nutrition dry dog food. This
product was produced at one facility in Manassas, VA
and was distributed exclusively by some Wal-Mart
Stores. Please note that no other Ol' Roy products are
affected, and that this recall is not related to the
Menu Foods recall (and other recent recalls) of pet
food due to tainted Chinese vegetable proteins.
This product has the potential to be contaminated with
Salmonella. People handling this pet food can become
exposed to Salmonella, especially if they have not
thoroughly washed their hands after having contact
with this pet food or any surfaces exposed to this
product. Consumers who have the dry dog food bearing
the code "04 0735 1" with a "Best By Apr 13 08" should
not feed it to their pets.
This voluntary recall has been issued because FDA
detected Salmonella in the product. Doane Pet Care has
not confirmed the presence of Salmonella, despite
extensive independent testing of duplicate samples.
Nonetheless, the company is issuing this voluntary
recall out of an abundance of caution. The company
regrets any inconvenience to pet owners. No illnesses
have been reported to date in connection with this
product, or any product produced at this facility.
