FDA PRESS RELEASE
— January 30, 2015 — Loveland, CO — Grill-Phoria LLC of Loveland, Colorado is
recalling approximately 200, 3.5 oz bags of Big Bark All Natural Beef Jerky
Treats for Dogs because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella.
These bags were distributed and manufactured between September 20, 2014, through

Salmonella can
affect animals eating the products and there is a risk to humans from handling
contaminated pet products, especially if they have not thoroughly washed their
hands after having contact with the products or any surfaces exposed to these
products. Most people recover from salmonellosis in four to seven days without
treatment, but some groups are at higher risk of developing more severe symptoms.
These high-risk groups are children under 5 years of age, the elderly,
pregnant women, and people with weakened immune systems.
Healthy people infected with Salmonella
should monitor themselves for some or all of the following symptoms: nausea,
vomiting, diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramping and fever. Rarely,
Salmonella can result in more serious ailments, including arterial
infections, endocarditis, arthritis, muscle pain, eye irritation, and urinary
tract symptoms. Consumers exhibiting these signs after having contact with this
product should contact their healthcare providers.
