Editor’s Note
Important: Warning! Detailed information regarding this recall is scant.
Keep in mind…
Even though the defective treats were sold only in Canada, they remained on the market for over 2 months.
Which means that by now, some of the product may have found its way into both Canadian and American homes… and may also be intended as gifts.
What to Do?
In its announcement, Costco advised consumers to “stop feeding the treats to your pet immediately as Irish Dog Foods reviews the quality concerns”.
Customers are invited to “return the Calendar to a Costco warehouse for a full refund on your next visit”.
For more information, please contact Irish Dog Foods at [email protected] or by telephone at 888-671-8851 (Monday to Friday 8am to 5pm).
The official announcement concludes, “We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and ask you to please pass this information along to anyone to whom the product may have been given.”
