Fromm Family Foods of Mequon, Wisconsin, has announced the voluntary recall of the following canned dog foods because they may contain elevated levels of vitamin D:
Fromm Gold Chicken Pate Dog Food

The affected products were shipped to distributors between December 2015 and February 2016.
What triggered the recall?
In house analysis by Fromm revealed that the affected canned dog foods exceed the recommended levels of vitamin D.
The manufacturer maintains that the voluntary recall is " being implemented in an abundance of caution as symptoms should only be noted in situations where dogs have eaten the affected products as their only meal for an extended period of time and leading to depression of appetite."
To date there have been no reports of any health problems, but Fromm is recommending the affected products not be fed.
the FDA has been notified and we welcome you sharing this information.
What do you do if you have these products?
Return them to the authorized retailer for a full refund.
