3,900 Pounds of Dog Food Recalled Over Salmonella in North Carolina: Online Purchases Also Under Alert

• Dog food recalled over Salmonella
• Three dogs reportedly became sick
• Online purchases are also affected

A dog food recall over Salmonella has raised concerns among pet owners after testing detected contamination in an Oma’s Pride product distributed in the United States.

The company recalled 639 six-pound bags of Woof Complete Canine Chicken Recipe, equivalent to 3,900 pounds (approximately 1,739 kilograms) of frozen raw dog food.

Oma’s Pride reported that three dogs became sick, while no illnesses in people associated with the affected product have been reported so far.

Although North Carolina is not among the 11 states where the food was distributed to stores and wholesalers, customers in the state may have received it through online orders.

Dog Food Recall Over Salmonella: These Are the Key Details

• Key details: The recall does not affect all Oma’s Pride foods. It specifically applies to six-pound bags of Woof Complete Canine Chicken Recipe from a particular lot.

Pet owners should look for SKU F-WOOFC-6, lot number BB012729, and UPC 8 7938400145 9 on the packaging to determine whether they have the affected product.

They should also check two dates: the affected food was manufactured on January 27, 2026, and has an expiration date of January 27, 2029.

• Why it matters: Salmonella does not pose a risk only to dogs that eat contaminated food. People can also be exposed by handling the product or touching surfaces that have come into contact with it.

How to Identify Dog Food Recalled Over Salmonella

• The key figure: The recall covers 3,834 pounds of frozen raw food, and the company reported illnesses in three dogs but no human cases so far.

Other Oma’s Pride products, sizes and lots are not included in this recall, making it essential to compare all the information on the packaging before throwing away other products from the brand.

• The process: Consumers can check recalls of veterinary products and animal foods published by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and search by brand.

The review should include the product name, package size, UPC, lot number and expiration date because a recall may be limited to a specific production batch.

Bought Dog Food Online? Check Your Orders

Online shoppers should review their order history and emails sent by retailers, especially if they no longer have the original food packaging.

If the packaging has been discarded and the lot cannot be verified, the recommendation is to contact the manufacturer before continuing to feed the product to a pet.

• What you can do: Anyone who has the recalled product should stop using it immediately and dispose of it safely to prevent dogs, children or other animals from accessing it.

Owners should also wash and disinfect feeding bowls, containers, utensils and surfaces that may have come into contact with the potentially contaminated food.

Symptoms to Watch for

Signs associated with Salmonella infection in dogs include lethargy, vomiting, fever, loss of appetite, abdominal pain, diarrhea or bloody diarrhea.

An infected dog may also show no symptoms while still potentially spreading the bacteria to other animals or people, making careful hygiene particularly important after handling affected food, according to Fox Business and WRAL.

If a dog consumed the recalled product and develops symptoms, owners should consult a veterinarian to determine the appropriate next steps.
