Years pet food recall: information for pet owners

Updated information for pet owners

We have been following the Years' voluntary recall after reports of sudden bilateral dry eye in dogs.

We know this has been an incredibly worrying and difficult time for affected owners, and our thoughts remain with them and their dogs.

Years has now completed its investigation, including extensive testing of its food, ingredients and manufacturing processes. The investigation found no evidence linking Years' food, ingredients or manufacturing processes to the reported cases.

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has confirmed to UK Pet Food that no evidence of a food safety risk has been identified and that it has no further action planned at this stage.

The British Association of Veterinary Ophthalmologists (BrAVO) is continuing its independent investigation into the apparent increase in cases of sudden bilateral dry eye in dogs, regardless of diet.

For the latest information relating to Years and its investigation, please visit Years' website. If you have concerns about your dog's health, please contact your vet.

UK Pet Food will continue to monitor developments and update our information if there is any significant new evidence.
