Our grade
- Marketing
- Modest
- Meaningful
Liver is a dense natural source of vitamin A, copper and B vitamins, and ground bone brings calcium with phosphorus. Sitting fourth to sixth, the organs make up a real share of each bite.
Meaningful A real difference for the dog eating it.
Sweet potatoes, carrots, apples and cranberries trail six animal ingredients. The plant share is small, which fits the high protein and fat.
- 7 Sweet Potatoes
- 8 Carrots
