CINCINNATI (WKRC) – The Food and Drug Administration issued a recall for dog food sold nationwide because it may contain “sharp metal and plastic foreign material.”
According to a recall from the FDA, Pedigree-brand canned “High Protein Chopped Chicken & Duck Flavor 13.2oz for dogs” was recalled after the manufacturer discovered the products may contain “sharp metal and plastic foreign material” in the cans.
