I admit to going and grabbing the tablets I just gave an impressionable adolescent toy dog who has never experienced our "war zone" effect so close to the town fireworks. We're okay, I think. Here I was trying to prevent a noise phobia, and I could have sickened her! Products recalled include Excel, Drs. Foster and Smith, even EAR Powder and Brewers Yeast! Even Gas Relief and Nature's Miracle Messy Pet Cleanup, ironically.

Thanks I didnt know. I have a few and have pulled them from the shelves. I will contact distributer tomorrow.

Which is why I buy human vitamins/supplements at Costco!

Umm, hmm, point well taken. Problem is, they are sometimes contaminated; they get recalled, too! I do use mostly human grade supplements, such as Flex A Min for an old Lab, but with a toy or a puppy, sometimes one just needs a tiny dose of something chewable.
