I just learned about the Nature’s Variety Dog Food Recall. Once again, it’s voluntary (thumbs up). I think the Diamond Pet Foods recalls has put us on edge and it’s wonderful seeing pet food companies being more proactive. The below is directly from their site…
Nature’s Variety has issued a nationwide voluntary recall on Prairie Beef Meal & Barley Medley Kibble for Dogs
Nature’s Variety has initiated a voluntary recall of its Prairie Beef Meal & Barley Medley Kibble for Dogs due to an off-odor smell that may develop over time. This product is not contaminated in any way, but some products are not remaining fresh for the shelf life of the product.

Dog Food Advisor
I checked Dog Food Advisor and found that Nature’s Variety Prairie is listed as above average and has a four star rating. This doesn’t appear to be a company that has a history of unsafe products and pet food recalls. ”Nature’s Variety Prairie is a grain-based dry dog food using a moderate amount of species-specific meat meals as its main sources of animal protein… thus earning the brand four stars. Highly recommended.” ~ Dog Food Advisor.
