Canned dog food commonly distributed in veterinary clinics and other retail outlets across the United States was recalled because it may contain too much vitamin D, which can lead to serious health issues in dogs, including kidney dysfunction, when found in very high levels.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said Hill’s Pet Nutrition was recalling multiple lots of both its Prescription Diet and Science Diet dog foods.
Prescription Diet dog foods are made specifically for dogs with weight, mobility, kidney, digestive, urinary and skin issues. The FDA said no dry foods, cat foods or treats were affected.
The recall list includes lots of its c/d, i/d, z/d, w/d and g/d prescription formulas.
