A pet health company based in Orange City, Iowa is pulling several animal milk replacer products from shelves after discovering the amounts of Vitamin D in the products were not within safe ranges.
Revival Animal Health, LLC announced a voluntary recall of its Breeder’s Edge® Foster Care® Canine and Shelter’s Choice® Canine Milk Replacer products. The company has also expanded an existing recall to now include its Breeder’s Edge® Foster Care® GM products, which are goat milk-based formulas.
The problem stems from variable Vitamin D levels found in the products — some tested too low, while others contained elevated amounts of the vitamin. Both scenarios can pose health risks to young or vulnerable animals that rely on these milk replacers for nutrition.
Pet owners and animal rescue organizations that use these products are encouraged to check their supplies and stop using any affected items. Anyone who has purchased these products should contact Revival Animal Health for guidance on next steps.
