Pet Food Recall Affects Consumers in Md., Va., and 10 Other States

WASHINGTON - The latest pet food recall is affecting consumers in 12 states, including Maryland and Virginia.

Diamond Pet Foods is voluntarily recalling a third type of dog food, its Diamond Puppy Formula, because of salmonella concerns.

The company had already announced that it was recalling batches of its Chicken Soup for the Pet Lover's Soul Adult Light Formula and Diamond Naturals Lamb Meal & Rice products.

While pets that have eaten the recalled food should be taken in for a check-up, Daniel Shillito, Staff Veterinarian at the Washington Animal Rescue League in Washington, D.C., says although the chances are slim, other pets and even humans could become infected.
