I thought I would look around and see if other dog companies have had recalls too.... sure enough. I found recalls for Merricks, Royal Canin, Petcurean Go Natural, Fit and Active, Canine Cuisine, American Faire, and Ol'Roy. Some deaths were reported in these too, but none had such widespread tragic results as the Diamond aflotoxin. But it just might be a company that has gone through that difficult time might be even safer than one that had not. It has been over a year now -- plenty of time for them to prove safe.
Here is the site with all the Diamond recall info from last year:
