NBC News – NEW YORK — Pet food maker Stella & Chewy's is recalling some of its products because a routine test found Listeria in a sample of its chicken freeze-dried dinner patties for dogs.

Listeria can cause serious illness and even death in children, the frail and the elderly. Healthy people may suffer flu-like symptoms, such as high fever, headache, nausea and diarrhea.

The Milwaukee-based company said there have been no reported pet or human illnesses.

A complete list of recalled products can be found on the pet food company'swebsite.

Consumers can look at the lot numbers and UPC codes on their pet food to determine if it's part of the recall. If they do have pet food that is part of the recall, they can return it to the place of purchase for a full refund, or they should dispose of it.
