PRODUCT ALERT !!! Pet Food Recalls by Diamond Pet Foods

As of May 5, 2012, Diamond Pet Foods has expanded their voluntary recall to include nine brands of dry pet food formulas due to potential Salmonella contamination.  According to the Centers for Disease Control, multiple brands of dry pet food produced by Diamond Pet Foods at a single manufacturing facility in South Carolina have been linked to some of the human Salmonella infections.  In April, 2012, Diamond initiated recalls of three of their dry dog food products including -  Naturals Lamb Meal & Rice, Diamond Chicken Soup for the Pet Lover's Soul Adult Light, and Diamond Puppy Formula.  Although none of the additional products have tested positive for Salmonella, the company is pulling them from store shelves as a precaution.

More information on these recalls, including the products subject to recall, can be found on the FDA website.  Consumers may also contact Diamond Pet Foods with any questions at (800) 442-0402 or visit www.diamondpetrecall.com.

Saying Goodbye

Chamblee_on_phoneChamblee, a much loved friend and team member, says goodbye...

When I came to The Village Vets almost four years ago, I had no idea the impact this "front desk" job would have on my life. I had just moved back to Atlanta, and I didn't want to go back to my job of 13 years in a large law firm. I wanted to do something that I was passionate about. I was passionate about animals, so I thought a job in a veterinary hospital would be a good fit for me. Boy was it! I knew The Village Vets, prior to joining its team, through the dog rescue work I had been doing for several years. It was because I knew The Village Vets to be very "rescue friendly" that I chose it as a place to settle down. Even so, I couldn't have imagined how much I would come to love the job, the people and, of course, all the thousands of dogs and cats I'd meet. My team members are like family. Many clients have become my close, personal friends. Each and every animal I love as if it were my own.
