KONG® silent recall of dog treat has consumers questioning the brand's integrity
The Dog Food Advisor (DFA) has announced a recall of KONG® Aussie Sticks for dogs due to possible contamination with mould. Although the DFA reported the recall on Sept. 25 no release by the manufacturer of the product has been made available to the public.
The manufacturer of the chew treat JAKKS Pacific- based in Walnut, California- has yet to issue a release informing customers of specific details about where the product was sold such as store locations or online distribution. The recall of the KONG® Aussie Sticks appears to be a "silent recall."

FEMA advises public to prepare pets for natural disaster
American families may be prepared for a natural disaster but are their
pets ready? September is National Preparedness Month sponsored by the United
States Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and
the organization is urging the public to prepare in advance for all types of
natural disasters.
“You should do the basics to prepare for hurricanes or any other type of
disaster – be informed, make a plan, build a kit and get involved,” FEMA Region
6 Administrator Tony Robinson said in a September 8 press release. “We
encourage you to take things one step further and make sure you are financially
ready too.”
