Would a dog food company know if a particular line of their food was made/packaged in an area that processed, or was in contact with, peanuts?
As some here know, after extensive testing and one specialist after another for Sam's severe life threatening allergies, he's been put on a specific type of a certain brand of food that he's doing well on.
But someone mentioned the other day that, like a human company that has warnings like "this product was manufactored in a plant that handles peanuts", dog foods can and may be too. And this is very scary. Because Sam is deathly allergic to peanuts and can and will die in under a minute if any peanut product is consumed.
The company is closed till Monday, so I can't ask until then. But I know diff. companies use different manufactors, ect. for their foods, so I really don't know if I'll receive a concrete answer. Now I'm concerned that I may be forced to take him off the one food that he's been able to thrive on, after months of trials and specialists and food testing.
Does anyone here think the company may know (the company is Natural Balance)? I'm wondering if their treats are manufactored in the same place as the food (cause it's the treats that would contain peanuts, like peanut butter flavored treats).
