My dog is a Black Lab that is 12 years old and has become very ill. She stopped eating 3 days ago I thought maybe my husband had been feeding her as well. Untill yesterday and she started to vommit (twice). Today she is going at both ends but still drinks water. I also think she may have the chills (I layed a blanket on her and now she can barely hold her head up). I would take her to the vet but one in my area does not open untill Monday and I am so sad for her. Anyone have any ideas (not crule ones)?

Try and find an emergency vet in your area. Purina beneful is not on the recall list and the other one you mentioned I could not find it but there are other canned foods that are on the recall list that are similar to the Masters choice cuts and gravy and they were on the list. Check the canned Masters choice cuts & gravy to see if it wheat gluten in it and If it does report it to Pet connection.com and they will have you fill out a form on the internet and ten they will report it to someone else. Good Luck I hope your dog will be ok. I will Pray for you and your dog.

Does the canned food contain wheat gluten?
More foods are being recalled by the day and I expect to see more in the next week, so even if the food is not on the recall list, if it contains wheat gluten, it could contain the tainted stuff from China.
And I agree with everyone else, get your dog to the emergency vet ASAP.

I don't think Purina dry food has been recalled. All recalled food IS NOT on the menufoods list, folks. Here's one I've found that has several links to VARIOUS dog food mfgs. and is updated daily, I believe.

I agree the absolute only thing to do is contact an emergency vet. Once your dog gets better, I would seriously consider switching your dog off of Beneful, it is an awful dog food...

Purina has not had any recalls so far but anytime there is Vomiting and the runs take to a vet ASAP.

Please call your vet now!! Most have a 24 hour emergency service and on -call vets. It's a little more expensive than during regular business hours, but if you wait until Monday it may be tooo late. Your dog is elderly, ill, and dehydrating ( fever and both ends) Plus, since she is still drinking, her electrolytes are probably out of wack.
The cruelest idea is to sit and wait until Monday.

Dry food has been recalled, science diet is one I can remember off hand. Type your pet foods name in online and keep an eye on the news reports.

I don't think so. here is the link for you to look for yourself:

I would drive 50 miles if I had to find a vet that was open if I were you. Sounds like your dog needs medical attention.
Here's the latest and greatest list from the FDA
