Good Neutral Watch Flagged
  1. 1
    chicken broth

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

  2. 2
    chicken

    Real meat. Primary protein source, with the amino acid profile dogs actually evolved to eat.

  3. 3
    red rice
  4. 4
    pumpkin

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

  5. 5
    flaxseed

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

  6. 6
    purple sweet potato
  7. 7
    kale

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

  8. 8
    carrot

    Real vegetable. Fiber, beta-carotene, antioxidants. Same as carrots, sometimes singular on labels.

  9. 9
    green peas

    Same as peas. Useful in small amounts. The concern is when pulses dominate the top of the ingredient list. See why →

  10. 10
    chia seed

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

  11. 11
    coconut oil

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

  12. 12
    calcium lactate

    Calcium source from lactic acid fermentation. Functional, well-tolerated.

  13. 13
    ginger

    Real spice. Some anti-nausea evidence in humans, but the dose in kibble is small. Mostly for flavor.

  14. 14
    turmeric

    Spice with anti-inflammatory compounds. Real research in humans, but the dose in kibble is small. Mostly there for label appeal.

  15. 15
    tricalcium phosphate

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

  16. 16
    inulin

    Prebiotic fiber that feeds beneficial gut bacteria. Same compound found in chicory root.

  17. 17
    l-ascorbic acid phosphate
  18. 18
    potassium chloride

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

  19. 19
    green-lipped mussel
  20. 20
    zinc amino acid complex

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

  21. 21
    choline chloride

    Essential nutrient for liver and brain function. Standard inclusion in complete dog foods.

  22. 22
    fish oil

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

  23. 23
    magnesium sulfate

    Source of magnesium, a required mineral. Standard inclusion in complete diets.

  24. 24
    vitamin e supplement

    Required nutrient and a natural antioxidant. Often pulls double duty as a preservative.

  25. 25
    iron amino acid complex

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