Canadian Reporting Instructions

 

Canadians who wish to report that their pet has been made ill by the contaminated pet food can leave a message at my regular office number:

(416) 665-5044

or at my CFIA e-mail address at

bakerh@inspection.gc.ca

If possible I would like to know

- the owner's name

- the owner's telephone number

- the owner's location (City and Province)

- the species and gender of the pet

- whether the pet has died or is surviving

- the name of the veterinary clinic involved

- the type of food implicated

- where the pet food was purchased

- previous medical history

So far CFIA will be unable to do anything immediate for them, but the collection of information MAY be the first step to a constructive response.

Thanks,

Hugh
