BREAKING NEWS: Dry Dog Food (Nutra Nuggets) Not On Recall List Test Positive For Melamine

A central California vet is reporting that tests on a bag of Nutra Nuggets-brand dog food purchased from Costco tested positive for melamine. Nutra Nuggets is not on any current recall list. We are working on getting more specifics from the vet.

Nutra Nuggets is a brand of Premium Edge Pet Foods and is made by Diamond Pet Foods. A month ago, Diamond claimed that they did not use rice protein concentrate in their own foods. Dozens of brands have been recalled due to cross-contamination of pet food ingredients.

Veterinarian Dr. Matt Humason says �We began asking questions�we found the dogs all ate the same food from the same store at the same time� so we sent a sample to get it tested and it came back positive with melamine.�

All four dogs ate Nutra Nuggets brand food.

A sample was sent to a lab at UC Davis and [the pet owner�s] fears were confirmed. �All I�m trying to get people to do is notify the people and let them know we may have problem. Unfortunately I feel Costco has been very hesitant to do that.�

They�re working with the distributor to track down the specific batch number. A Costco representative tells KSEE 24 news once it�s been tracked, they will immediately yank the product in question.
