Lamb and rice on the bag, plenty more inside
Signature feature
Sensitive Formula
Ingredients that are gentle on the stomach with omega fatty acids to nourish skin & coat
What it is No single add-in. It's the lamb and rice base, plus omega-3 from flaxseed, 13th on the list, and fish oil, 15th, just past the salt.
Our grade
- Marketing
- Modest
- Meaningful
Omega-3 is guaranteed at 0.4%, a fair dose for skin and coat. But wheat, soy, corn and fish meal ride along with the lamb, so this is no limited-ingredient diet.
Modest Real, but smaller than the pack makes it sound.
Fish meal sits second, with wheat, soy and corn protein inside the top 9. A dog allergic to any of them will react here.
- 2 fish meal
- 4 wheat
- 6 soybean meal
- 9 corn protein concentrate
- 14 Salt
