   Thanks for the information. This is why I always cook everything well. I would rather overcook than undercook any day!

   OH no. We have been supplementing our dog’s kibble with raw grinds made by a local onlinepany sold frozen. We did get the turkey variety and he got diarrhea for a week a month ago so we stopped, suspecting the turkey. He is now back to his usual self, luckily. We will contact the shop we purchased from.

  If feeding raw meat to dogs for the first time, their bowel movements will change until their bodies adjust to it.

  He had been eating different grinds for months before that — beef, duck, chicken, etc. so he had adjusted. We just decided it wasn’t worth the risk. Thanks for the info, though!

  Salmonella rarely bothers *healthy* dogs. It passes right through them. It makes people really sick, so be zealous about sanitation if you feed raw to your pooch (spray diluted bleach on the prep surface, soak utensils/dog bowls in bleach solution, wash and sanitize hands….) Note: if your dog is immuno-onlinepromised in any way, I would only consider “HPP” processed raw — there are a few onlinepanies that offer it.

   I don’t understand why they cannot tell us the specific source. They know how many people got sick from it in each state and they know it’s from raw turkey. Yet they can’t say a brand or distributor that it’s linked to 🤔

  I was wondering the same thing Christina ugh. I wish they could pinpoint which brands it has affected. I guess I will buy ground chicken until this issue is cleared but. There is also a recall on Duncan Hines cake mixes to.

  I think the problem is live turkeys across the country have also tested positive so this is likely not a distributor problem.

    Ugh I just bought our turkey yesterday. I hope butterball is not one of the affected ones. I know they are not saying the brands but does anyone know if they will disclose that anytime soon? Before thanksgiving!!! I mean if they don’t there will be more people and God forbid deaths. I always over cook my turkey just in case.

  Cooking is important, but also keep in mind that anything the raw turkey touches could beonlinee contaminated.

  I know!😬 I always have a bottle of Clorox clean up under the kitchen sink and spray all over the sink and counter. It smells bleachie but then I know it’s clean. We use paper towels to dry our hands and we wash everything. We do the same thing after we cut the turkey. My best friend thinks I over doing but I rather over do it than to risk having sick people in my house, specially during thanksgiving

  That is exactly how you SHOULD be! I remember YEARS ago, when there were many ecoli outbreaks (including jack n the box), and oprah had a show on it, she had a guest who was a butcher, and he said ANY raw meat can make you very sick-practice safe meat handling and cook your meat fully. I will still be using my ground turkey-i cook everything to well done and honestly wash every surface that raw meat could have possibly touched. It is better than being sick.
