Dog and cat food recall: Viva Turkey for Dogs Ground, Viva Turkey for Dogs Chunked, Viva Turkey for Cats, Viva Pure Turkey and Viva Beef & Turkey for Puppies
A nationwide recall has been issued by online pet food subscription site Viva Raw for several of its products over the risk of bacteria contamination.
The presence of listeria was identified after the FDA conducted sample testing on the product Viva Turkey for Dogs. Samples from Lot 21244 were found positive for the bacteria. The company said that all products produced from the same lot "were slated for destruction" but that some items were "inadvertently released from the warehouse" to customers.

The online subscription company Viva Raw has recalled several products over the possibility of listeria contamination.

DOG FOOD RECALL REPORTED YESTERDAY:

"Pedigree dog food sold at Walmart . . . is voluntarily recalling 315 bags of its Adult Complete Nutrition Grilled Steak & Vegetable Flavor Dry Dog Food over potential 'loose metal pieces' in the kibble. The affected bags have a 'best by' date of March 4, 2025, and a lot code of 410B2TXT02. Both can be found on the bottom seal of the bag."

It is only for THAT specific date and serial number, but check your bag today if you have any at home just to be sure.

We have had some incidents recently that I feel I need to address. My staff is valuable to this clinic, and is very important to the care of your furbabies.

First, THANKS to all our wonderful Bowie Pet Clinic clients!!! This post is not to you.

Now, to the less than 1% that are causing all the problems:

AS A CLINIC WE CAN NOT AND WILL NOT DO ILLEGAL THINGS:
*We will not spay/neuter your neighbor's dog/cat without their written and signed consent.
*We will not euthanize any animal without the owner's written and signed consent.
*We will not use someone else's credit card to pay your bill without the owner's written and signed consent.

Yelling, threatening, and/or cussing/cursing me or my staff will not change any of the above at all. My staff has permission to hang up the phone, ask the offender to leave --- or, worst case scenario, to call the police.

Just FYI ---

The block of Smythe street between the light and the railroad tracks is blocked off at the light for repair of the fire hydrants. You will need to go around the block to get to parking in front of the clinic. Not sure how long it will take, but it is that way right now. Sorry for any inconvenience!!!

Just found out today is World Veterinary Day!!!

"World Veterinary Day is marked on the last Saturday of April, which is April 27 this year. It is a day to celebrate the noble profession of veterinarians. The day provides recognition for those who have dedicated their lives to helping animals, and it honors the profession’s role in the health and well-being of animals, people, and communities around the globe. Veterinarians are some of the most caring and selfless people in the world. They have the difficult task of taking care of and helping animals recover from injury and illness."

UPDATE: They are home from the hospital but continuing with outpatient care. Thank You Lord for your blessings of protection and healing!!!

There has been a serious car accident in our clinic family. Please join me in prayer for Ms. Rachel's family members who were involved.

We will be short-staffed while Ms. Rachel is with her family through this incident. We will do our best to meet needs, and ask for your understanding with some necessary rescheduling.

THANK YOU so much to everyone for your care and understanding!!!

Is your cat acting strange? The time to prevent those unwanted litters is now.

01/31/2024

Very short handed but still plugging along --- gotta be here for the furbabies when they need us.

01/30/2024

We have had two staff members who worked last Friday test positive for covid today --- plus one still recovering at home from surgery last week. We will be short handed at the clinic until it is safe for them to return. We are carefully monitoring temperatures and thoroughly cleaning just in case starting first thing tomorrow morning. We sincerely ask for your prayers for healing and a quick recovery to those dealing with this virus. We will keep everyone posted as changes occur. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Thank you so much to the wonderful family who sent us flowers today --- they are beautiful and smell so nice!!! And thank you ever so much that you recognized our important staff in your card. I don't know what I would do without my team!!! Thank you, thank you once again!!!

01/21/2024

Every day I come to work hoping to help the furbabies get well. Bottom line, I am like a pet mechanic --- I can do the surgery and give the medicine, but the healing is in the Hands of One far, far greater than me. Still, it doesn't keep me from trying day after day, after day, after day . . .

Life isn't fair. Four month old female puppy looking for a new home without other pets ONLY. She is NOT good with small dogs, and that's what got her in "jail" now. All the paperwork is signed for her to go over the rainbow bridge IF she can not find a home by 29 Dec, but owners have allowed us to try to find her a home until then. Nice friendly puppy to people, but has and will attack small dogs. Please spread the word. Thanks!!!

Just FYI:
IF you live on 1125 headed away from Bowie and just past the lake. On my way to church in Crafton on Sunday, I passed a beautiful brown dog with a fancy harness decorated with bright red => happily munching away on a road kill deer on the right hand side of the road. If your dog isn't sick yet, another few days and that deer will get pretty ripe. Just letting everyone know with the hope of preventing a problem. Merry Christmas!!!

There are many good shelters and groups that help care for local animals in need, and who don't waste your donations on TV ads and big paychecks. Please think of these first when the tearful ads come on TV.

Please look at the side labels for ingredients before ever giving your furbaby ANYTHING made for humans. There are things safe for us that are poisonous to our family creatures:
