Breaking news recall alert – stella & chewy’s recalls products due to listeria
Menu
Stella & Chewy’s is voluntarily recalling four of its products sold in the U.S. and Canada due to concerns of a possible presence of Listeria monocytogenes. The recall affects a total of 990 cases (964 cases in the U.S. and 26 cases in Canada).
The recall was prompted by a positive test confirming Listeria monocytogenes in Stella’s Super Beef Dinner Morsels for Dogs (8.5 oz. frozen bags, lot #165-15, “Use by 6-25-2016”) during routine surveillance testing by the Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development.

Listeria Risks
Listeria is not only dangerous to dogs, it can also be deadly to small children, the elderly and those with auto immune disorders. Pregnant when are twenty times more susceptible to the disease and can cause miscarriages and stillbirths. For them, the only symptom may be a fever.
