Unfortunately, given the changing nature of the recall, we cannot at this time provide a guaranteed "safe list" of products but do recommend that you check FDA's website regularly for updates of foods that are not safe to use. You may also visit Pet Food List.com for a list of foods NOT on any recall list. So far, NO PRODUCTS REGULARLY SOLD BY OUR FACILITY HAVE BEEN AFFECTED BY ANY RECALLS. Homemade diets should be done only under the advise of a veterinarian; for more information, you may visit balanceit.com, or petdiets.com.
