Our read The ingredients

Chicken and grains with a real fish oil dose

Signature feature

Omega 3 fatty acids

Stable and sustainable source for healthy skin and coat

Annamaet says

What it is Menhaden fish meal and menhaden oil, 6th and 7th on the list, backed up by flax seed meal and a marine algae oil that sits below the salt.

Our grade

  1. Marketing
  2. Modest
  3. Meaningful

Menhaden oil sits well above the salt, and the bag guarantees EPA and DHA, the omega-3s that actually calm skin inflammation. Flax alone couldn't do that, since dogs convert very little of it.

Meaningful A real difference for the dog eating it.

Menhaden meal and oil follow right behind the chicken fat and grains. The algae oil sits below the salt, a DHA top-up rather than the main source.

  • 7 Menhaden Oil

Our read The label

A dense, fish-oiled food for busy dogs

The number

880mg

EPA plus DHA, at least, per day for a 45 lb dog eating about 2.1 cups. That's a working dose for skin.
  1. How was it proven?

    Formulated

    Built on paper to AAFCO levels for all life stages, including large-breed growth. No feeding trial, but puppies and adults can both eat it.

  2. Is a cup a normal cup?

    No, it's dense

    At 512 kcal, a cup runs about 30% above the average dry food we list. Use a real measuring cup, or a quiet dog gains weight.

Feed it to
Active adults, sporting and working dogs, and growing large-breed puppies that do well on chicken and grains.
Skip it for
Low-key dogs prone to weight gain, dogs with a history of pancreatitis, and dogs allergic to chicken or fish.

    One honest caveat. These figures are what a label will tell us: protein, starch, the top of the ingredient list, flagged additives and the brand’s recall record. They cannot tell you whether your dog will do well on this food. Allergies, gut sensitivity, age and health conditions all matter more than any of it, and none of them are printed on a bag. If your dog is thriving on a food whose figures read lower than this one, that is not a mistake, and we would not switch on our say-so.
