What Happened with the Royal Canin Recall?

Royal Canin is a pet food brand that was originally founded by Jean Cathary, a French veterinarian. The company established itself as the number one pet food supplier in Europe and, over the years, expanded into the global market. Sales penetrated the US market upon acquisition of the company by Mars Incorporated.

Under Mars Inc's management, Royal Canin had two separate incidents of contamination that triggered a recall. The first was in February 2006 where thousands of canned pet food were recalled due to excessive levels of Vitamin D3. Reports of several dogs and cats being ill as a result of Vitamin D poisoning were made. The recall process was swift and easy because the specific brand was exclusively sold at vet clinics.

The second recall incident happened in April and May 2007. Thousands of Royal Canin dry dog foods were recalled due to potential melamine contamination. At the time of recall, the products were sold across the US, Canada, and South Africa.

Who is Eligible for a Royal Canin Recall?

Any pet owner who purchased any of the recalled Royal Canin pet foods is eligible for a refund. Whether you purchased your Royal Canin pet food from a vet clinic or a retail store, all you have to do is provide the following:

Purchase receipt
Your name

How do I Make a Claim for the Royal Canin Recall?

Customers affected by the Royal Canin recall can make their claim in one of three ways:

1. Send the Product Back to the Store

Mars Inc compensated retailers for all recalled products. If you're still in possession of a recalled Royal Canin can, you can send it back to the store where you bought it and claim a refund. Submit a receipt proving your purchase and you may just get a refund.

2. Call the Company

Call Mars Inc customer services on 844-256-6277. Once you get hold of one of the representatives, explain your recall issue to them and they'll put you through to the relevant department. You may be asked to provide evidence, after which your request will be processed. If successful, you'll receive a refund.

3. Claim Your Recall Online

You can claim your Royal Canin recall online in one of two ways:

Sending an email
Filling an online recall request form

Send an email to MFS@realtime-solutions.com or order.usa@royalcanin.com with your name, contact information and upload a receipt or any other proof of purchase. Once your case is reviewed, a representative will get back to you on whether or not you can get a refund.

Alternatively, go to the Mars Inc or Royal Canin website and fill in a recall request form. Fill in your order information and the serial number of your product and your contact information. A representative will get back to you regarding your case.

Do I Immediately get a Recall if I Report my Product?

If you have a defective product that has no open recall and would like to get a refund, the first step is to report the product. You can do this by contacting the FDA or Consumer Protection agencies and providing substantial evidence supporting your claim.

Evidence can include:

Videos showing the product's defectiveness
Photos
Doctor's notes in cases of contamination

While it's important to report defective products, it doesn't always guarantee a refund. An investigation will be carried out into your issue and, if successful, you may get a refund or other form of compensation. With DoNotPay you can increase your chances of getting a refund. We help you compile compelling evidence and get your case heard by the right people.
