Betty C. Oklahoma City, OK

Answer

Hi – thanks for your email. Interesting question. I had to do some digging to find this answer. According to the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), “all of the recalled products added together represent approximately 1% of commercially available pet foods. There are still many safe pet foods available.”
