Fromm Family Foods has recalled 5,825 cases of two canned dog food varieties after identifying a possible metal-fragment contamination issue during production. The company says no injuries have been reported so far, but is urging owners to check their pantries for the affected lot codes before feeding the product to their dogs.

What's affected

  • Fromm Turkey Pate, 12.2 oz cans, UPC 072705118700 (3,852 cases)
  • Fromm Diner Classics Milo's Meatloaf Pate, 12.5 oz cans, UPC 072705132324 (1,973 cases)

  • Distributed in the United States and Canada through neighborhood pet stores and online retailers

Why it was recalled

Fromm says it identified a possible metal-fragment contamination risk tied to a production-line error. In its recall notice, the company stated it had identified the error, but has not publicly detailed what caused the issue on the line. No injuries in dogs or humans handling the product have been reported as of the announcement.

What pet owners should do

  • Check any Fromm Turkey Pate or Milo's Meatloaf Pate cans against the lot codes above before serving
  • Stop feeding any matching cans immediately and dispose of them or return them to the retailer
  • Watch for signs of mouth injury, choking, or gastrointestinal distress in pets that may have eaten the product
  • Contact Fromm at 1-800-325-6331 (weekdays 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m. CT) or info@frommfamily.com with questions

Bottom line

No injuries have been confirmed yet, but the recall affects nearly 5,800 cases across two products, so check your lot codes before your next feeding.
