Two Dog Supplements Recalled for Salmonella: How to Check Your Cabinet

Check your cabinet this weekend. On September 8, 2026, the FDA published a notice that Fi, a New York company, is voluntarily recalling two lots of dog supplements because they may be contaminated with salmonella. The products were sold directly to customers and through Amazon and Chewy, which means they are sitting in kitchens and mudrooms right now, not on store shelves where a recall sign would catch your eye. No illnesses have been reported so far, according to the FDA notice and press coverage.

Here is exactly what to look for and what to do.

What Was Recalled

The recall covers two specific Fi products. Only the listed lot numbers are affected.

• Fi Calming Supplement for Dogs, 180 gram container, Lot 26118, UPC 8 50064 80011 1
• Fi 8-in-1 Formula Supplement for Dogs, 180 gram container, Lot 26159, UPC 8 50055 11168 4

The potential contamination comes from an ingredient supplied to Fi's manufacturer, according to the company announcement posted by the FDA. The manufacturer has suspended production while it investigates. Fi is notifying affected customers directly.

Match the lot number printed on your container. The product name alone is not enough, because only these two lots are covered.

How to Check Your Container in Two Minutes

Grab any Fi supplements you have at home and work through this quick checklist.

1. Confirm the product name. Only the Calming supplement and the 8-in-1 Formula are involved.
2. Find the lot number. It is usually stamped on the bottom of the jar or on a sticker near the expiration date.
3. Compare it to the two lots above: 26118 and 26159.
4. If you cannot read the lot number, check your email for the order confirmation or search your Fi account history. Fi says it is notifying affected customers, so a direct message from the company is a second way to confirm.

Do this even if the container is already empty. The routine matters more than the single jar, because salmonella can linger on scoops, countertops, and the dog bowl the supplement was mixed into.

What to Do If Yours Matches

Stop using the product immediately. Then follow the FDA's recommended steps.

• Keep the container sealed tightly and throw it away in the trash. Do not pour it out, compost it, or donate it.
• Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water after handling it.
• Clean and sanitize the scoop, the dog bowl, and any surfaces the supplement touched.
• Call your vet if your dog ate the product, even if your dog seems fine. Infected but healthy looking dogs can still carry salmonella and pass it to other animals or people.

If you have questions about the recall, Fi can be reached at 1-888-434-3647 between 10 a.m. and 8 p.m. Eastern time, or by email at support@tryfi.com.

Symptoms of Salmonella in Dogs

The FDA lists these signs in pets: lethargy, diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, fever, and vomiting. Some pets show only decreased appetite, fever, and abdominal pain. If your dog consumed a recalled product and shows any of these signs, contact your veterinarian and mention the recall by name. It helps your vet connect the dots faster.

This is also a good moment to remember that fall stomach trouble is not always a recall. If your dog is gassy in September with no recalled products in the house, the causes are usually more mundane, and the fix list for fall tummy gurgles covers the common ones.

The Risk Is Not Just to Your Dog

Salmonella from a contaminated product can affect people too, usually through handling the product, touching contaminated surfaces, or contact with waste from a dog that ate the product. The risk is higher if you have not washed your hands after contact.

In people, symptoms can include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramping, and fever. If you develop these after handling a recalled supplement, contact your healthcare provider and mention the product. Older adults, infants, and anyone with a weakened immune system should be especially careful, since salmonella can cause more severe illness in those groups.

One More Recall Worth a Glance

In late August, Northwest Naturals of Portland, Oregon issued a voluntary recall for select lots of frozen raw pet food after FDA testing found salmonella and listeria in some samples. The affected lots: 2 pound bags of Frozen Chicken Recipe for cats (Lot B-5, UPC 087316384956, best by 01/26/2028) and 6 pound bags of Frozen Raw Diet for Dogs Chicken Recipe (Lot B-19, UPC 087316380392, best by 01/25/2028). If raw food is in your freezer, check those lots too.

How to Catch the Next Recall Faster

Products sold online are the hardest recalls to catch, because there is no store shelf to clear and no sign in an aisle. A few habits make the next one easier to spot.

• Photograph the lot number on every new supplement or food container when you open it. The photo lives on your phone and beats digging through recycling.
• Save order confirmation emails from pet brands in a folder. They link you to the exact product and lot when a notice goes out.
• When you hear about a recall on social media, confirm it on the FDA recall page or the AVMA alerts page. Social posts can get the details wrong. The official notice has the lot numbers.
• Fold a two minute cabinet check into your regular routines, like the 10 minute yard sweep or the September dog reset: small checks now prevent bigger problems later.

Recalls are unsettling, but this one is straightforward. Two lots, two numbers, a two minute check. Do it today and you can stop thinking about it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my dog's Fi supplement affected if the lot number is different?

No. The recall covers only lot 26118 of the Fi Calming Supplement for Dogs and lot 26159 of the Fi 8-in-1 Formula Supplement for Dogs. If your container has a different lot number, it is not part of this recall.

My dog ate the recalled supplement but seems fine. What should I do?

Stop feeding the product and call your vet. The FDA notes that infected but otherwise healthy pets can carry salmonella and infect other animals or people, so your vet may want to monitor your dog or test a stool sample.

Can salmonella from a dog supplement make people sick?

Yes. People can be exposed by handling the contaminated product, touching surfaces it contacted, or coming into contact with waste from a dog that ate the product. Wash your hands after handling it and contact your healthcare provider if you develop symptoms like nausea, diarrhea, or fever.

How do I report my sick dog to the FDA?

Adverse events can be reported to the FDA's Center for Veterinary Medicine by completing form FDA 1932a at fda.gov/reportanimalae. Mention the product name and lot number.
