Voluntary recall of chicken treats by Milo's Kitchen

On the heels of Nestle Purina's voluntary jerky treat recall, Milo's Kitchen (R) announced it's own voluntary recall of its Chicken Jerky and Chicken Grillers dog treats. Like the Waggin' Treats and Canyon Creek Ranch treats, Milo's Kitchen Chicken Jerky and Chicken Grillers, the products that were made in China tested positive for trace amounts of an antibiotic not approved for use in the United States. No other of the Milo's Kitchen products are affected by the recall.

Milo's Kitchen general manager of Pet Products, Rob Leibowitz assured the pet consumers that "Pet safety and consumer confidence in our products are our top priorities. While there is no known health risk, the presence of even trace amounts of these antibiotics does not meet our high quality standards."

Consumers who discard the treats will receive a full refund. Please contact Milo's Kitchen at 1 (877) 228-6493 or contact them through their website at http://www.delmontefoods.com/contactus/Contact.aspx.

Chicken jerky treats made in China have long been a source of controversy and complaint, with several pets on record as having become ill as a result of eating them. Please exercise caution with any pet food or treat product manufactured in China.
