Mislabeled dog food lawsuit

I’ve come back to share this very important bit of information. While scrolling on Facebook, I saw an advertisement for a Class Action lawsuit concerning mislabeled dog food. I am a big dog food nerd, I love staying up to date on food happenings, so I clicked it assuming it was about the huge Hill’s recall.

It wasn’t.

It’s about the very foods that I’ve been feeding my highly allergenic dog for months. The one brand and flavor I fed her when I discovered her allergies, Canine Caviar Open Meadow (a limited ingredient lamb formula), was top of the list with findings of a lot of poultry, beef, pork, and fish. Elektra cannot have fish, or beef, or poultry. There was also found to be wheat despite being grain free.

Canine Caviar is only one of the many brands that have a lawsuit pending against them with this new suit. Other brands and formulas include:

• Blue Buffalo Basics Limited Ingredient Grain-Free Formula Lamb & Potato Recipe Large Breed Adult Dry Dog Food

• Canine Caviar Open Meadow Holistic Entrée for All Life Stages Limited Ingredient Diet

• FirstMate Australian Lamb Meal Formula Grain-Free Limited Ingredient Diet

• Iams Proactive Health Sensitive Skin and Stomach Grain-Free Recipe with Chicken and Peas

•Instinct by Nature’s Variety Limited Ingredient Diet Grain-Free Recipe with Real Lamb

• Merrick Grain-Free Real Lamb + Sweet Potato Recipe

• Nature’s Recipe Grain Free Salmon, Sweet Potato and Pumpkin Recipe

• Taste of the Wild High Prairie Grain-Free Dry Dog Food

• Zignature Lamb Limited Ingredient Grain-Free Formula

• Zignature Pork Limited Ingredient Grain-Free Formula

As well as others! If you feed a limited ingredient diet, I urge you to check out this lawsuit to ensure your dog is being fed what you think you’re feeding. If you have proof of feeding a brand and flavor on the list and live in the USA, maybe look into signing up for the lawsuit. I have since I want justice for making Elektra suffer on that brand. She was so immensely itchy and her feet turned near black from licking her feet all the time.

Finally, even if you don’t feed any of these brands, please boost!!! I know a lot of us feed high quality foods on here because we want the best for our dogs, and raising awareness of this situation is bound to help someone.
