    I've checked the lists but just in case I missed something...has anyone heard anything about ProPlan? I feed Nebo Natural Balance and Keva Royal Canin and they rarely get wet food, but about a week ago I bought some ProPlan canned dog food. Keva's trainer said it was good to give northern breeds fish so I bought the salmon kind (for sensitive stomach I think?) to mix in with their food. It made Nebo really quite sick, he had diarrhea in our front room. He's pretty sensitive about food so I figured it was just the food not agreeing with him, but I thought I'd check just in case.

    I see that Nutro is on the list, does anyone know if this includes the "desserts?" I buy those fairly often, I have a few at my house, but I don't know if I dare give them to the dogs or not.

    From the Purina Pro Plan web site:

    Purina to voluntarily withdraw Mighty Dog® 5.3 ounce pouch products in response to Menu Foods recall

    No other Purina products affected

    St. Louis, Missouri, March 16, 2007
    Nestlé Purina PetCare Company today announced that as a precautionary measure, it is voluntarily withdrawing its 5.3 ounce Mighty Dog® brand pouch products that were produced by Menu Foods, Inc. from December 3, 2006 through March 14, 2007. This withdrawal is in response to the recall initiated earlier today by Menu Foods, a contract manufacturer that does limited business with Purina as well as with other pet food manufacturers. Only Mighty Dog 5.3 ounce pouch products are being withdrawn by Nestlé Purina, including those pouches contained in multi-packs. Importantly, no Mighty Dog canned products, or any other Purina products are affected by Menu’s recall.

    Consumers who have the indicated Mighty Dog 5.3 ounce pouch products should discontinue feeding them to their dogs and can receive the full replacement value of the withdrawn products by calling 1-800-551-7392.
    The Mighty Dog pouch products and pouches in multi-pack cartons have code dates of 6337 through 7073, followed by the plant code 1798. This information should be checked on the bottom or back panel of the individual pouches. Specifically, if the code following the “Use By” date begins with four numbers from 6337 to 7073 followed by the plant code 1798, then the pouch is included in this voluntary withdrawal.

    Purina regrets any inconvenience and apologizes for any concern caused by this product withdrawal. The Company will continue to take any and all actions necessary to ensure the quality and safety of our products.

    A big thank you

    Phred, a big thank you to you for all of the information. This whole situation is frightening enough without adding rumors of other products that may be safe.

    Thanks for the FACTS!!

    I was surprised to see none of these brands had been removed from
    shelfs at a nearby Kroger store.(I really dislike the current manager there)
    They had printed out a list of recalled items & just taped it on the shelfs.

    I never buy much there but staples anyway. (milk, bread, etc)
