Ingredient Wiki

FIRST 5 OF 39 COMPONENTS

Our read The ingredients

A grain-based chicken kibble with a modest probiotic

Signature feature

Probiotic support

Digestive health formula. Probiotics to support digestive wellness

Purina says

What it is Dried Bacillus coagulans fermentation product, the last of 39 ingredients. It's a spore-forming bacterium added to the kibble, with a guaranteed live count on the bag.

Our grade

  1. Marketing
  2. Modest
  3. Meaningful

Spores survive extrusion heat and months on the shelf, which most probiotics don't, and Purina guarantees the count. It's a steady nudge for a normal gut, not a fix for a sick one.

Modest Real, but smaller than the pack makes it sound.

Rice, corn, corn protein meal and wheat fill spots two to five. Chicken leads, but grain carries the bulk of each cup.

  • 2 rice
  • 3 whole grain corn
  • 4 corn protein meal
  • 5 whole grain wheat

Our read The label

An average adult kibble, proven by feeding trial

The number

376m cfu

Million CFU of Bacillus coagulans a day for a 45 lb dog on 2.8 cups. The bag guarantees it as a minimum.
  1. How was it proven?

    Feeding trial

    Purina ran an AAFCO feeding trial on this recipe for adult maintenance, a step past paper formulation. Puppies need a different food.

  2. Is it a high-protein food?

    No

    Chicken leads, yet corn protein meal and soybean meal help lift the protein, which lands just under the average dry food we list.

Feed it to
Healthy adults that do well on chicken, corn and wheat, and owners who want a feeding-trial food with a mild probiotic.
Skip it for
Puppies, dogs allergic to chicken, beef, corn, wheat or soy, and dogs with chronic digestive disease needing a vet diet.

    Other kibble recipes with the closest protein, fat and starch as fed, the way the bag prints them. Prescription diets are left out.

    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.
