Bravo! Raw Food Diet Recall
Bravo! is recalling three of its raw diet foods for dogs and cats because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella.
Products affected:
* 5 lb. Bravo! Chicken Balance frozen raw diet chubs (tubes) with "best used by" dates of 3_6_15 and 3_12_15 imprinted on the side of the plastic casing. Only 26 cases with the 3_6_15 date were distributed nationally and 36 cases with 3_12_15 date were distributed nationally.
* 2 lb. Bravo! Chicken Blend frozen raw diet chubs (tubes) with the "best used by" date of 3_21_15 imprinted on the side of the plastic casing. Only 67 cases with 3_21_15 date were distributed nationally.
* 5 lb. Bravo! Beef Blend Burgers bags with the "best used by" dates of 3_21_15 and 3_22_15 imprinted on the back panel of the plastic bag. Only 47 cases with the 3_21_15 date were distributed nationally and 55 cases with the 3_22_15 date were distributed nationally.
According to the company:
"This recall is being issued out of an abundance of caution, as while these products tested for pathogens by an independent third party prior to distribution, they were run on the same day or an adjacent day to a product that tested positive for pathogens."
This recall is an extension of the recall of 2 lb. Bravo! Chicken Blend frozen raw diet tubes (chubs) packaged on June 14, 2012. In that recall the Minnesota Department of Agriculture found Salmonella bacteria in routine sample tests.
Bravo! is allowing concerned pet owners to return unopened frozen tubes of food and patties to the store where purchased for a full refund. Pet owners should dispose of unopened product in a safe manner (example, a securely covered trash receptacle). Consumers who believe they have opened these products at home should just dispose of the product in a safe manner and contact the retailer where they purchased their product for a full refund.

My Suggestion -
If you suspect that your pet has become sick due a pet food product:
1) See your veterinarian first
2) Contact the FDA to report the adverse event. http://www.fda.gov/petfoodcomplaints
3) Contact your State Department of Agriculture
4) Contact the Pet Food Manufacturer
5) Save the pet food and packaging as the FDA and State Department of Agriculture investigators may ask for it. Make sure you wash your hands well if you are touching the food. Make sure your pets cannot get to it.
Many adverse pet food events go unreported, causing contaminated foods to stay on store shelves longer than they should.
