Years, a dog food subscription service, has recalled all its fresh meals after reports of pets developing an eye condition that could lead to blindness if left untreated. The company cited a possible link to buckwheat, an ingredient added to its meals several months ago. Owners were instructed to stop feeding the meals immediately and not to feed them to other animals or attempt to donate or sell them.
Roughly 192 customers reported potential eye issues out of 40,000 customers. The Royal Kennel Club described symptoms which include eye inflammation, redness, sensitivity to light, and discharge. Some owners reported their pets not responding to treatment, with a few losing their sight. The Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons' expert initially suggested the link to Years' foods was unlikely, but the company decided to investigate further, leading to the recall.
