A lab report provided by a reader indicates that a sample of Country Value
Puppy formula exported from the US contained melamine. The report obtained
and translated by Itchmo states that the sample was tested by a South Korean
university's veterinary research center. This report has not been verified
in the US. Country Value is also sold in the US, but has not been recalled.



This is also the first report of a lab - besides Expertox in Texas -
reporting on possible contamination of unrecalled pet food.



Jim Fallon, a spokesman for Diamond Pet Foods, said that the food with the
best by date of March 2008 was made in September 2006 at their South
Carolina plant.



The lab reported finding melamine concentrations of 346.21 parts per
million, a number that is higher than the amounts typically found through
cross contamination according to the manufacturer Diamond Pet Food. Fallon
also said that they have received no calls regarding Country Value through
their recall hotlines. Diamond is working on pulling the retained samples
and will test them for melamine and says they will pursue this "aggressively
and cautiously."
