and other resources given mention only a few specific things:
BEGIN QUOTES
Eight in One Inc. announced Monday that it is pulling all
packages of Dingo Chick'N Jerky, Dingo Kitty Chicken Jerky
and Dingo Ferret Chicken Jerky. The treats were sold in
Canada and the U.S. This recall is not linked to a recall
involving contaminated wheat gluten in cat and dog food.
...
The company has received one report of a dog becoming
infected by salmonella. Consumers should stop feeding the
treats to their pets and contact Eight in One Inc. for a
refund at 1-888-232-9889.
END QUOTES
These are important for a different reason:
