Ingredients

Tap any colored marker to learn why it's good or bad for dogs.

55 total
  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
    pork

    Real meat. Dense protein and fat, though less common in dog food than chicken or beef.

  3. 3
    pork meal
  4. 4
    barley

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

  5. 5
    oatmeal

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

  6. 6
    ground flaxseed

    Cracked flaxseed for better digestibility. Same plant omega-3s as whole flaxseed, just easier for the dog to extract.

  7. 7
    natural pork flavor
  8. 8
    beef liver

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

  9. 9
    pork fat
  10. 10
    lamb

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

  11. 11
    bison

    Real meat, leaner than beef. Used as a novel protein, mostly in premium formulas.

  12. 12
    venison

    Real meat, lean and gamey. Used as a novel protein for dogs with sensitivities.

  13. 13
    goat
  14. 14
    beef kidney
  15. 15
    beef tripe
  16. 16
    tomato pomace

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

  17. 17
    pumpkin

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

  18. 18
    broccoli

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

  19. 19
    beets
  20. 20
    carrots

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

  21. 21
    squash
  22. 22
    spinach

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

  23. 23
    blueberries

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

  24. 24
    ground pumpkin seeds
  25. 25
    chia seed

Showing first 25 of 55. Position 1-5 has the largest weight in the recipe.
