Is there a Royal Canin recall right now?
No. The latest Royal Canin recall on record was on May 11, 2007, for trace amounts of a melamine derivative from imported rice protein concentrate. We found no newer one when we checked the FDA's recall list on October 18, 2026.

The safety record
FDA recall records for Royal Canin
From the FDA's own Recalls, Market Withdrawals & Safety Alerts list (Animal & Veterinary), last checked October 18, 2026, plus older recalls we added by hand from FDA notices — the same source as our full recall feed, filtered to Royal Canin. A recall on this list is a documented fact, not automatically a reason to avoid the brand today — read the reason and date for context.
Eight Sensible Choice dry dog foods and seven Kasco dry dog and cat foods (Royal Canin USA brands)
Trace amounts of a melamine derivative from imported rice protein concentrate
Royal Canin Veterinary Diet dry foods (Canine Early Cardiac EC 22, Canine Skin Support SS21, Feline Hypoallergenic HP23) and Royal Canin Sensible Choice dry dog foods made with rice protein concentrate; other Royal Canin diets not affected
Melamine derivative found in imported rice protein concentrate (2007 melamine event); no confirmed illnesses in pets
The FDA's online recall list is complete for recent years but leaves out many notices from before about 2023. We add older FDA recall notices by hand when we find them, so a brand with no listing here may still have an older recall.
