Has Smallbatch pet food ever been recalled?Updated 2 months ago

Yes — Smallbatch issued two voluntary recalls in 2016 and 2017, affecting one lot of Duck Sliders for dogs and two lots of a 2lb Chicken Base Blend. Both recalls were initiated as a precautionary measure: the affected batches tested negative through our own facilities and third-party lab testing, but showed a potential positive result through FDA sampling. No illnesses in pets or people were reported in connection with either recall and products were voluntarily recalled out of an abundance of caution.

Our test-and-hold protocol, pathogen testing on every batch, and rigorous supplier standards exist precisely to catch and address concerns before products reach your pet's bowl. You can find more about our food safety practices in the Food Safety & Processing section of this FAQ.
