Pet Food Recall of 4MAY12

One of our distributors has notified us of several brands of pet food that were voluntarily recalled on May 4th for possible salmonella contamination. Green Acres does not sell any of these particular foods, but just in case some of you feed them, we thought it was important to pass this information along. This information is preliminary. If you feed any of these foods we would suggest you check the store where you purchased the food or check the manufacturer's website for more information.
