Full Version: Royal Canin Recall
Thank you again Tom! As I had said before, the variety we feed isn't on the list, thankfully, but boy did the price jump!! We are now paying (gulp) $42 for a large size bag. Good thing hubby doesn't see the receipt for it!! I'd rather they do the voluntary recall just to be safe.
EDIT: After posting this reply last night, I found out that our variety is in fact now on the list. My crew has been eating this since Christmas. I am really concerned now. You can't feed them anything that you can buy at the grocery store since all of that is on the list. 
I'm not going to cook for them, since I even hate cooking for me! What now?? I'm going to try to talk to the vet on Monday and see what she says, but I can't even buy them anything different until Friday and DH even has a recalled bag of food with him. I counted up all the empty bags and came up with a total of 8 bags counting the empty bag from Christmas that we no longer have!!! 8 bags and 6 of them were/are the big bags!!! That's a lot of "bad" food that they have eaten. They aren't acting any different, but I don't want them acting fine, then in the morning finding them gone. 
I don't know what to do.

I get nervous when the dogs skip a meal.
It's so confusing!! You think you are feeding something good and the next day it shows up on the recall list!!
