Northwest Naturals Raw Dog Food Topper Recall Alert!

What You Need to Know About the HPAI virus

If your pet has been infected with the HPAI virus, they can show a range of clinical signs including loss of appetite, severe depression, fever, difficulty breathing, neurological disease, respiratory difficulties, jaundice, and death. These signs are expected to develop within a few days of exposure to the virus. As with many viral infections, some cats may only show mild signs. It’s important to note that dogs have died from avian influenza.

Important Message for People Who Handled These Foods

While it’s unlikely that people would catch avian influenza through contact with an infected wild or domestic pet, it is possible, especially if there is prolonged and unprotected exposure to an infected animal. Precautions should be taken when handling a sick animal, whether it is a beloved pet or a wild animal.

Dog Foods Recalled

The affected food is packaged in 2-pound plastic bags with “Best if used by” dates of 05/21/26 B10 and 06/23/2026 B1. The product was sold through distributors in AZ, CA, CO, FL, GA, IL, MD, MI, MN, PA, RI and WA in the United States, and British Columbia in Canada.
