Solid Gold Bone Broth Stew with Chicken & Hearty Vegetables Dog Food Topper

A topper in 10.9 oz cartons, made to add to a bowl rather than to feed on its own. With the water taken out it is 67% protein and 3% fat, and each carton carries 200 kcal.

  • Topper, not a complete meal
  • Stew
  • 10.9 oz carton
  • 88% water
Protein is 66.7% once the water is taken out, above the topper median of 42%. The label prints 8.0% because that figure includes the water. One carton carries 200 kcal and about 9.6 oz of water.

Exactly as the carton prints it, heaviest first

Ingredients are listed heaviest first, and a dog food needs very little salt, so the tail of the list is present in very small amounts.

NUTRITION WITH THE WATER TAKEN OUT

Wet food is mostly water, so the label’s percentages look small next to kibble. Taking the water out is the only fair way to compare it with other foods.

NUTRIENT ON THE LABEL WATER OUT TOPPER MEDIAN
PROTEIN 8.0% 66.7% 42.1%
FAT 0.3% 2.5% 18.8%
FIBER 3.0% 25.0% -
CARBS (EST.) - 0.0% -

Carbohydrate is not on any label: it is what is left after protein, fat, fiber, water and an assumed 2% ash.

RECALL HISTORY // SOLID GOLD

1 FDA Recall On Record

MAY 8, 2012
SALMONELLA

Dog Food Matched by brand. The notice lists the exact products and lots.

None in the last three years. Older events stay on the record. See the recall log

OTHER BRANDS // CLOSEST ON THE LABEL

Similar recipes from other brands

Other topper recipes with the closest protein, fat and moisture as fed, the way the label prints them. Prescription diets are left out.

One honest caveat. These figures are what a label will tell us: protein, calories, 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 carton. 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.
