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 spleen
  3. 3
    lamb heart
  4. 4
    flaxseed

    Plant source of omega-3. Helpful for skin and coat, though dogs absorb omega-3 from fish more efficiently.

  5. 5
    yams
  6. 6
    spinach

    Leafy green. Some iron, vitamin K, and fiber. The dose in kibble is small but it's real food.

  7. 7
    ground krill
  8. 8
    cranberries

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

  9. 9
    pumpkin seeds
  10. 10
    coconut oil

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

  11. 11
    cod liver oil
  12. 12
    ground eggshell
  13. 13
    potassium salt
  14. 14
    sea salt

    Same as salt. Required at small doses for normal physiology.

  15. 15
    dried yeast

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

  16. 16
    dried kelp

    Natural source of iodine and trace minerals. A common premium-brand inclusion.

  17. 17
    mixed tocopherols

    Natural vitamin E used to keep fats from going rancid. The good kind of preservative.

  18. 18
    mint
  19. 19
    guava

9 of 19 ingredients have a curated note. Coverage grows over time.
