Ingredient Transparency
The first five ingredients - Lamb Meal, Burbank Potato, Norkotah Potato, Chicken Fat, and Tomato Pomace - establish the nutritional foundation of this formula. Australian lamb meal is the single animal protein source, derived from grass-fed, free-range animals raised without added hormones or antibiotics. Two potato varieties serve as the primary carbohydrate sources, replacing grains and peas entirely. Chicken fat is included for palatability and coat health, and is processed free of protein to minimize allergen risk. Blueberries, cranberries, and raspberries are included for their natural antioxidant properties. Yeast extract provides natural prebiotics. No artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives are used in this formulation.
Nutritional Positioning
This formula is complete and balanced, meeting the nutritional levels established by AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for adult maintenance. The concentrated lamb meal protein supports muscle maintenance and overall vitality. Potato-based carbohydrates provide sustained energy without grain or legume allergens. Taurine is included to support heart and eye health. This is not a therapeutic or prescription diet - consult your veterinarian for dogs with diagnosed medical conditions.
Texture, Palatability, and Feeding Experience
This is a standard dry kibble format. The kibble size is appropriate for adult dogs of all breeds. Lamb meal and chicken fat contribute to a palatable formula that encourages consistent consumption. Dogs transitioning from other dry foods typically adapt well when introduced gradually over 7-10 days.
Feeding Guidance and Portion Use
Feed as a complete daily meal. Adjust portions based on your dog's weight, age, and activity level. The 1lb size is ideal for sampling or for small dogs. Always provide fresh, clean water alongside meals. Refer to the feeding guide on the packaging for starting portion recommendations.
Safety, Storage, and Handling
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Seal the bag tightly after each use to maintain freshness. Keep out of reach of children. Always provide fresh water. Consult your veterinarian before making significant dietary changes.
