Holistic Turkey Recipe in Broth Adult Canned Dog Food, 13.2-oz, case of 6

Wet and fresh foods contain more water than kibble (typically 65-78%). On a dry-matter basis, this food's protein content is roughly 47%, comparable to premium kibble (typically 30-45% DMB protein).

1. 1

   turkey

   Real meat. Lean protein, good amino acid profile, often well-tolerated by dogs sensitive to chicken.

   protein animal
2. 2

   turkey broth

   Real broth from named meat. Adds flavor and moisture, signals a recipe that leans on real meat.

3. 3

   chicken broth

   Real broth, adds flavor and moisture. Negligible nutrition on its own but tells you the recipe leans on real meat.

4. 4

   chicken liver

   Organ meat. Dense in protein, iron, vitamin A, and the B vitamins. Among the most nutrient-rich ingredients a dog can eat.

5. 5

   salmon

   Real fish meat. Natural source of omega-3s, which kibble usually has to add back from oil.

   protein animal
6. 6

   oats

   Whole grain. Steady energy, soluble fiber, and well-tolerated by most dogs.

   grain
7. 7

   pumpkin

   Soluble fiber that supports stool quality. Mild and well-tolerated.

   vegetable
8. 8

   carrots

   Real vegetable. Fiber, beta-carotene, and a small amount of antioxidant value.

   vegetable
9. 9

   peas

   Cheap protein bulk. Fine in small amounts, but when peas stack with lentils and chickpeas in the top ingredients, it's the pattern the FDA flagged in its heart-disease investigation. See why →

   legume
10. 10

    celery

    Real vegetable. Mostly water and a little fiber. Decorative more than nutritional in the amounts used.

    vegetable
11. 11

    sweet potato

    Complex carb with fiber and beta-carotene. Gentle on the stomach.

    vegetable
12. 12

    mustard greens
13. 13

    guar gum

    Thickener common in wet food. Emerging research on emulsifiers and the gut microbiome, but no smoking gun in dogs yet.

    fiber
14. 14

    salt

    Sodium chloride. Required at small doses for normal physiology. Not a quality concern in standard amounts.

    mineral
15. 15

    potassium chloride

    Required mineral. Sometimes used as a salt substitute. Standard inclusion in complete diets.

    mineral
16. 16

    xanthan gum

    Thickener common in wet food and gravies. Same emulsifier-microbiome conversation as guar gum, not a clear flag.

    fiber
17. 17

    natural flavor

    Legal term for animal-derived flavoring, usually hydrolyzed liver or broth. Adds taste, says nothing about quality.

    other
18. 18

    zinc amino acid chelate

    Zinc bound to amino acids for better absorption. Same idea as zinc proteinate, the premium form of the mineral.

19. 19

    iron amino acid chelate

    Iron bound to amino acids for better absorption. Premium form versus inorganic iron sulfate.

20. 20

    copper amino acid chelate

    Copper bound to amino acids for better absorption. Premium form versus copper sulfate.

21. 21

    manganese amino acid chelate

    Manganese bound to amino acids for better absorption. The chelated form most premium brands use.

22. 22

    sodium selenite Flagged

    Inorganic selenium. Effective at AAFCO levels, no documented safety concern in dogs despite what some pet food blogs claim. Selenium yeast is a marginal upgrade, not a necessity. See why →

    mineral
23. 23

    cobalt amino acid chelate

    Cobalt bound to amino acids for better absorption. Trace mineral needed for B12 synthesis.

24. 24

    potassium iodide

    Source of iodine, an essential trace mineral for thyroid function. Required for AAFCO-complete formulas.

    mineral
25. 25

    tricalcium phosphate

    Calcium and phosphorus source. Same role as dicalcium phosphate, slightly different ratio.
