Good Neutral Watch Flagged
  1. 1
    lamb

    Real meat. Often used for dogs with chicken or beef sensitivities. Slightly higher fat content than chicken.

  2. 2
    lamb liver

    Organ meat. Same nutrient-density story as chicken or beef liver, dense in B vitamins, iron, vitamin A.

  3. 3
    carrots

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

  4. 4
    squash

    Real vegetable. Fiber, vitamin A, gentle on the stomach. Similar nutrition role to sweet potato.

  5. 5
    kale

    Leafy green with antioxidants and fiber. Small dose in kibble, but it's not just for marketing.

  6. 6
    apples

    Real fruit, some fiber and antioxidants. The amount in kibble is too small to matter much.

  7. 7
    parsley

    Real herb. Trace amount of vitamins K and C. The dose in kibble is small, mostly there for label appeal.

  8. 8
    pumpkin seeds
  9. 9
    sunflower seeds
  10. 10
    broccoli

    Real vegetable. Adds fiber and some antioxidants. Fine in the small amounts used in kibble.

  11. 11
    blueberries

    Antioxidants, real. But the amount in any kibble is too small to do much. Mostly marketing.

  12. 12
    cranberries

    Often added with a urinary-tract-support marketing angle. Real cranberry compounds help in concentrate form, but kibble doses are small.

  13. 13
    apple cider vinegar
  14. 14
    cod liver oil
  15. 15
    montmorillonite clay

    Natural clay used as a binder and anti-caking agent. Functional, not nutritional.

  16. 16
    sunflower oil

    Common plant oil. Useful in moderation for omega-6, though too much skews the omega ratio against the dog's favor.

  17. 17
    dried yeast

    Natural source of B vitamins and trace minerals. Adds a savory flavor that dogs respond well to.

  18. 18
    fish oil

    Concentrated omega-3s. The reason 'EPA' and 'DHA' get to show up on the bag.

  19. 19
    coconut oil

    Saturated fat with medium-chain triglycerides. Mostly marketing in the doses kibble uses, but harmless.

  20. 20
    ground alfalfa
  21. 21
    dried organic kelp
  22. 22
    liquid lactobacillus acidophilus fermentation product
  23. 23
    liquid lactobacillus casei fermentation product
  24. 24
    liquid lactobacillus reuteri fermentation product
  25. 25
    liquid bifidobacterium animalis fermentation product
