In the wake of the outbreak among nearly 39,000 dogs and cats having been infected by melamine contamination in pet foods, causing permanent illness and death to pets around the country, now there is another need for concern to pet owners. Salmonella contamination has been found in pet chews made by American Bullie (A.B.).

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is warning all consumers to safely discard of any A.B. Bull Pizzle Puppy Chews and Dog Chews. These products may potentially be contaminated with Salmonella.

Salmonella poisoning can not only cause serious infections in the pets, but potentially can crossover to humans, particularly those with lowered immune systems.

The recalled products include all sizes of the A.B. Small Chews, Puppy Chews and Dog Chews, which are manufactured and distributed by T.W. Enterprises in Ferndale, WA.

Updates will be provided by the FDA as appropriate.
