If you regularly order your dog’s daily supplies from sites like Chewy or Amazon<\/a>, you might want to double-check your latest delivery. <\/p>\n

Vet Plus, Inc. <\/a>has officially issued a recall <\/a>for two popular dog supplements sold under the “Fi” brand due to a potential Salmonella contamination. <\/p>\n

Recalled Supplements<\/p>\n

The recall specifically affects the following:<\/p>\n

\"WIBX<\/p>\n

180-gram containers of the Fi Calming supplement,\u00a0Lot 26118.<\/p>\n

180-gram containers\u00a0of the Fi 8-in-1 Formula,\u00a0Lot 26159.<\/p>\n

The issue stems from a contaminated ingredient provided by an outside supplier, and production is completely on hold while investigators figure out exactly what went wrong.<\/p>\n

The Risks<\/p>\n

We usually think of pet food recalls as just an issue for our four-legged friends, but Salmonella <\/a>is tricky because it can easily transfer to humans.<\/p>\n

If your dog gets sick, you might notice them acting unusually lethargic, running a fever, throwing up, or dealing with diarrhea.<\/p>\n

However, even if your dog seems perfectly fine, you can still get sick <\/a>yourself just by handling the supplement or cleaning up the yard.<\/p>\n

For humans, an infection means a rough couple of days with stomach cramps, fever, and nausea, so thorough hand-washing is absolutely crucial right now.<\/p>\n

What to Do\u00a0<\/p>\n

So, what’s the next step if you find one of these lot numbers sitting in your cupboard?<\/p>\n

Don’t bother trying to box it back up to ship it to Amazon or Chewy.<\/p>\n

The FDA <\/a>is advising everyone to seal the container up tightly and toss it straight into the garbage so no other animals can get into it. <\/p>\n

If your dog has already been snacking on either of these formulas and seems a little under the weather, don’t wait to give your vet a call right away to get them checked out.<\/p>\n
