Ingredients

Read why each ingredient is good or bad for dogs.

62 total
Good Neutral Watch Flagged
  1. 1
    beef

    Real meat. Dense in protein and iron. Some dogs are sensitive to it, but for most it's an excellent base.

  2. 2
    lamb meal

    Lamb cooked down to a dry concentrate. Per pound, more protein than fresh lamb.

  3. 3
    oatmeal

    Gentle on the stomach. Slow-release carbs and soluble fiber that supports stool quality.

  4. 4
    barley

    Whole grain with a low glycemic profile and some soluble fiber. Easy on blood sugar.

  5. 5
    beef liver

    Organ meat. Among the most nutrient-dense ingredients available, rich in B vitamins, iron, and vitamin A.

  6. 6
    lamb

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

  7. 7
    tomato pomace

    The fiber-rich byproduct of tomato processing. Sometimes flagged unfairly. It's a real fiber source, not a filler shortcut.

  8. 8
    flaxseed

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

  9. 9
    sunflower oil

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

  10. 10
    whitefish meal

    Whitefish cooked into a dry concentrate. Strong protein source, common in premium formulas.

  11. 11
    beef fat

    Real animal fat, a clean energy source. Stable on the shelf without synthetic preservatives.

  12. 12
    quinoa

    Pseudo-grain with a complete amino acid profile. Rare in dog food because it's expensive.

  13. 13
    natural vegetable flavor
  14. 14
    beef kidney

    Organ meat. Dense in B vitamins, iron, and trace minerals. Among the most nutritious ingredients on any label.

  15. 15
    beef tripe

    Stomach lining. Strong-smelling but nutrient-dense, with natural digestive enzymes.

  16. 16
    blueberries

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

  17. 17
    broccoli

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

  18. 18
    beets

    Whole beets, not to be confused with beet pulp. Real vegetable, fiber and antioxidants.

  19. 19
    carrots

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

  20. 20
    spinach

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

  21. 21
    squash

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

  22. 22
    cranberries

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

  23. 23
    chia seed

    Plant source of omega-3 and fiber. Like flaxseed, useful in trace amounts.

  24. 24
    pumpkin seeds
  25. 25
    salmon oil

    Pure omega-3s. The thing skin-and-coat formulas are usually built around.
