Consumers Supply Distributing, LLC of Sioux City, Iowa, announced the recall on December 24, 2025, after a routine FDA sampling program detected the potential presence of Salmonella in finished dog biscuit products.

Which Dog Biscuits Are Recalled?

The recalled products are packaged in 4-pound bags and can be identified by the following details:

Both products were sold through retail stores in Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Texas, Montana and Nebraska.

Why the Recall Matters

Salmonella bacteria can cause illness in pets, including lethargy, diarrhea, vomiting, fever, and abdominal pain, and pets infected with Salmonella can also spread the bacteria to humans. People handling the recalled products are advised to wash their hands thoroughly after contact and monitor for symptoms such as nausea, abdominal cramps, diarrhea or fever.

So far, no illnesses have been reported in connection with the recalled dog biscuits.
