Solid Gold had a recent recall on their dogs treats recently, too.  Same thing, mold related.

Due to some instances of mold growth in a single batch of Tiny Tots, we have decided to voluntarily withdraw the entire production run from the market. We would like to assure our customers that there have been no reported serious health effects on dogs that have consumed Tiny Tots
from this batch.

If you have a bag of Tiny Tots with a Best Before date of April 2009, please return it to your retail store for a full refund. No other batches of Tiny Tots or any of our other jerky treats are affected.

So we have 2 recalls with 2 different products and both problems are mold. I'm not liking the sounds of this.
