(Atlanta, GA) The United States Food and Drug Association has put restrictions on newly introduced pet food. Aside from other pet products, such as dog beds or dog leashes, the U.S. pet food recall count has increased since 2008, causing a necessary need for this regulation.

The FDA Pet Food site"ensures that the ingredients used in pet food are safe and have an appropriate function in the pet food."

Since April 2009, four major pet food companies have had recalled pet food products. Perhaps the reason why the pet food industry has disregarded pet health consumption can be attributed to the increase in pet supply sales, as the pet food companies focus solely on making money rather than keeping pets healthy. Since 2007, pet sales have continued to rise, even during the recession. American Pet Product Association's 2008 research shows pet supply distribution has reached a $4.2 billion total.

"This increase in sales should not be a reason why our pet's health and consumption is being overlooked," said Victoria, PR Director of Pet-Super-Store, an online pet supply company.

The FDA will continue to survey all future pet food products. To read the FDA Pet Food Regulations, please click here.
