According to the folks over at Pet Connection Nutro is recalling its Nutro Ultra Puppy 4.5 lb bags and Nutro Natural Choice Chicken, Rice and Oatmeal Puppy Small Bites in 5lb bags.
Apparently Pet Connection bloggers found out about the recall from a Nutro employee twitter feed
“Hi! I’m with Nutro. Re: plastic-During a maint. shutdown, a bump cap inadvertently made its way into our mfg. process equipment….”
Seriously? Twitter to announce a food recall ? I guess it is a quick way to get the word out….I checked the Nutro official website today and I can’t find any information about it. You would think that if your employees are Twittering about it, your webmaster would now and get it on your official site ?
weird…….

Maddening! The constant recalls are why I switched to a holistic pet food made by a private vet in her private manufacturing facility and have it shipped to my door. A friend that works in rescue turned me on to it at http://www.HumaneSocietyPetFood.com
It’s worth checking out so you don’t have to worry. Has never been recalled.
