Diamond Pet Foods is recalling its Diamond Naturals Lamb Meal & Rice dry dog food because the product may be contaminated with salmonella.
A news release from the company Friday says no illnesses have been reported and no other Diamond products are affected.
People who handle the pet food could become infected with salmonella. Healthy people infected with salmonella should monitor themselves for the following symptoms: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramping and fever.
Pets with salmonella may have decreased appetite fever and abdominal pain.
The product was distributed to customers in 12 states: Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Virginia. It is possible those customers may have distributed it to other states.

Take the receipt to the place of purchase. They should help you resolve the issue.

I have the receipt for the dog food, however we use a food bin to put the food in. I bought the food at TSC. What are my steps to return if I don’t have the bag? My dog has been throwing up lately. I feed it to two dogs but only one has been throwing up.
