Pet Food Recall Hotline: 657-5463

The massive pet food recall has expanded to include dog biscuits from another manufacturer. This comes as the pet food company that started the whole recall widens its list of foods not to feed your animals.

Menu Foods is now including twenty more varieties of pet food and pushed its recall date back to products from November 8, 2006.

Sunshine Mills is also pulling twenty types of its large dog biscuits off the shelves. You can find those biscuits under the Sunshine Mills name brand. But at Wal*Mart, they're known as the Ol'Roy brand.

Sunshine Mills says some of the imported Chinese wheat gluten, possibly contaminated with the chemical Melamine, was used to make those biscuits.

Some members of Congress are now calling for a federal oversight hearing. They want the FDA to be held responsible for not keeping a closer eye on the pet food industry. In a letter to the FDA two members of Congress claim the agency never actually inspected the plant identified as the source of the contamination.

They say the FDA's response to the recall was,  "tragically slow." "This was a break down and a failure," said Senator Dick Durbin from Illinois. "It has brought a lot of pain, a lot of heartache to pet owners across America. We can do a better job in Washington."

The FDA says the brands involved in these recalls represent only one percent of all the pet food on the market.
