Breadfarm, Inc. Recalls Sirius Dog Treats Purchased Between January 2007 and October of 2008 Because of Possible Health Risk

March 04, 2009

Breadfarm, Inc. of Bow, WA is recalling Sirius Dog Treats, along with certain products for human consumption that were purchased between January 2007 and October of 2008 because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella. Sirius Dog Treats (sealed in 7 oz cellophane packages) were manufactured using peanuts recalled by Peanut Corporation of American because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella.

Sirius Dog Treats were sold in Washington State at the Bellingham, Mount Vernon, and Everett Farmer's Markets and at the Breadfarm retail location in Bow, Washington. The product was sold under the Breadfarm label with no additional labeling or code information on the package.

Breadfarm products produced after October 2008 are made using non-recalled peanuts from a different source and are not affected by this recall. According to BreadFarm, Inc., no known illnesses have been reported to date in connection with this product.

Consumers who purchased Sirius Dog Treats between January 2007 and October of 2008 are urged to return them to Breadfarm for a full refund. Consumers with questions may contact the company at 1-866-372-7323, between 8am and 5pm, Monday through Friday, Pacific Time. Breadfarm products produced after October 2008 were made using non-recalled peanuts from a different source.
