DETROIT (WWJ) - A big recall has been issued for pig ear dog chews sold in Michigan and seventeen other states.

About 2,705 boxes of the treats were sold by distributors and retailers in Michigan, as well as Connecticut, Iowa, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maine,  Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, North Carolina, North Dakota, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Washington and Wisconsin.
