Salmonella found in pet food: human infections possible

Pet owners may want to see if their pet food brand is affected by a recent recall of products due to salmonella contamination. In some states and in Canada, human cases of salmonellosis, traced to these foods, have been recently documented. If you suspect illness due to using any of the listed foods, please contact the Maine CDC or the Department of Agriculture.
