The short answer

As of August 2026, there are no recalls on record for Brutus Broth (sold as Brutus Bone Broth) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. If you arrived here after seeing a recall mentioned on social media, note that a trending post is not the same as an FDA recall. The record that matters is the FDA's listing and the manufacturer's own notices, and both currently show no recall for this product.

Where the rumor comes from

Short videos with titles like "[brand] recall" circulate constantly, often with no source, no lot number, and no FDA notice behind them. They drive a wave of worried searches. The fix is the same every time: check the FDA record and the exact product you own, not the headline.

Brutus Broth's recall history at a glance

Brutus Broth is a bone broth dog food topper that, by the company's account, was founded around 2017 by two sisters and is made in the United States in a facility that also produces bone broth for people. Its products are sold as toppers and gravies to pour over regular food. Across that history, the FDA's recall listings show no entries for the brand.

As always, a clean record to date is not a promise about the future, and it is not a verdict on the food itself. It means no production run has been pulled from shelves so far. Any brand can issue a recall if a batch turns up a contamination, nutrient, or labeling issue.

Why a brand-name search can mislead you

A pet food recall almost never applies to an entire brand. It applies to a specific product, a specific lot number, and often a specific date range of manufacture. So searching the brand name can mislead in both directions: an old, resolved recall can resurface and worry you, or a very recent, narrow recall might not be reflected on a brand's homepage yet. We walk through this in how to actually check if your pet food is recalled.

What to check on the package

Find the product name, the lot or batch number, and the "best by" or manufacture date, usually printed near the seam or the bottom. A real recall notice always names these specifics, not just the brand.
