"Even prior to this extremely disturbing incident at Menu Foods, our dry dog and cat foods were not produced using wheat gluten," said Dave Kravis President and CEO of Nutro Products. "We know that there is confusion among consumers about what foods are safe to feed their pets right now. We can categorically say that Nutro's dry pet foods do not contain the ingredient wheat gluten, they are unaffected by the Menu Foods recall, and it is absolutely safe to continue feeding these products to your pets."
According to Kim Noetzel, vice president of marketing and community relations for the Arizona Humane Society: "We are reassuring pet owners that based on the information we have, dry food products, including those from Nutro, are safe to continue feeding. We are in contact with Nutro and have complete confidence in their products and in the information and resources they have been providing us. We will absolutely continue working with them throughout this situation."
Nutro's products are 100% guaranteed and all returned product will be refunded.
