At least 28 dogs have died and another eight have become sick after eating dog food that contained high levels of a toxin called aflatoxin, the Food and Drug Administration said, as some pet foods were recalled Wednesday.
The FDA is investigating these reports, and alerting pet owners and veterinarians that certain Sportmix brand pet foods may contain potentially fatal levels of aflatoxin.
Aflatoxin is produced by the mold Aspergillus flavus, the FDA says. This mold can grow on corn and other grains used in pet foods. At high levels, it can be deadly for pets.
