Recall History
The following list (if present) shows all dog food recalls related to SPORTMiX Dog Food Review since 2011. If no recalls are listed, no recall events have been reported.
This specifically highlights the contamination issue in two pet food formulas: Sportmix Premium High Energy and Sportmix Premium Energy Plus. These formulas were named in the class-action lawsuit as being among the products that were found to contain elevated levels of aflatoxin. The lawsuit claims that these particular pet food formulas posed a risk to the health of pets due to the presence of this harmful substance, which prompted concerns among pet owners and resulted in recalls of these products. The manufacturers are facing allegations of negligence and deceptive marketing practices for selling these potentially unsafe pet food formulas.
SPORTMiX has been recalled 3 times in the years 2020, and 2021.
