On April 30, 2012, Diamond Pet Foods has announced it is now expanding its voluntary dog food recall to include Diamond Puppy Formula dry dog food.

The company is taking this precautionary measure because sampling has revealed Salmonella in the product.

According to the official press report, no dog illnesses have been reported.
