Could this be from the recalled dog food?

My two puppies have been very sick for the last few weeks (vomiting and bloody loose stools, but parvo and parasite negative) and I am wondering if it is from the food. They get 1/4 of a can of Nutro Natural Choice chicken, rice, and oatmeal puppy food every day. I checked the labels and it is the kind that they recalled. They have gotten better in the last week, but I am wondering if it is because the vet put them on Hills prescription i/d. Now, one of them has been drinking a lot of water and peeing a lot, but it looks really clear. Is that a sign of kidney problems? And could it be related to the food?
Also, if it is how do I go about contacting the company to ask them questions? I have tried contacting the menu foods, but all I have gotten is a busy signal.
Could this be from the recalled dog food?Best thing you can do is keep the cans or pouches of food that you currently have to act as proof that your animals were exposed to the recalled items.
If you've already spoken to your vet, you've done the best thing possible. At this point in time, since MenuFoods does not know exactly what is wrong with the food or what is causing the problems, there's nothing they can really do at that end regarding treatment. Your vet will know the best way to respond to and treat the symptoms that your dogs are currently presenting.
Keep all of your vet bills and receipts for when you DO get ahold of MenuFoods. There is a very good chance that you will be compensated for the costs.
