We have this afternoon been informed of a product recall impacting Wilsons Cold Pressed Dog Food.
They have been informed by one of their suppliers about a potential salmonella risk in one of their cold pressed ingredients.
The potential risk is within the dried ginger found within the premix, which accounts for only circa 0.0025% – 0.005% of the finished products.
While Wilsons have tested 14 batches which have come back as clear for salmonella, and further test samples have been sent, they are legally required to recall the products impacted (listed below). you can find the full notification on the Food Standards Agency website HERE.

What is Salmonella?
Salmonella is a bacterium that can cause illness in humans and animals. The products could therefore carry a potential risk, because of the presence of salmonella, either through direct handling of the product, or indirectly, for example from pet feeding bowls, utensils or contact with the faeces of animals.
Wilsons Cold Pressed Dog Food Product Recall – Millie’s Response

As a local Scottish producer, we are absolutely gutted for the Wilsons team who do so much for the dog community in very challenging climate and I’ve always been so impressed by their high standards of quality and safety measures.
While I know this may be concerning – this is another example of where their high standards and approach to quality have not waivered.
