Ingredient Transparency
Duck meal leads the ingredient panel as the sole primary protein source - concentrated, highly digestible, and naturally rich in iron, selenium, and B vitamins. Chickpeas, lentils, and field peas provide grain-free carbohydrate sources with natural fiber. Canola oil and fish oil (preserved with mixed tocopherols) deliver essential fatty acids, with flaxseed meal contributing additional omega-3s. Suncured alfalfa meal, dried kelp, carrots, and spinach provide natural vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Four probiotic strains are included for digestive health. All ingredients are non-GMO. The slow-cook, low-temperature processing method gently prepares ingredients to retain maximum nutritional value.
Nutritional Positioning
Duck meal provides concentrated protein and essential amino acids to support lean muscle development in puppies and maintenance in adults and seniors. Its high digestibility makes it gentle on sensitive digestive systems. Duck is naturally rich in iron, selenium, and B vitamins, supporting energy metabolism, immune function, and overall vitality. The legume-based carbohydrate sources provide sustained energy with natural fiber for digestive health. Fish oil and flaxseed contribute omega-3 fatty acids including EPA and DHA for skin, coat, and cognitive health. Four probiotic strains support beneficial gut bacteria and nutrient absorption. The formula is fortified with essential vitamins and minerals including vitamin E, B-complex vitamins, zinc, copper, manganese, and selenium. This product is formulated to meet the nutritional levels established by AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for all life stages, including growth and reproduction.
Texture, Palatability, and Feeding Experience
The kibble is prepared using a slow-cook, low-temperature process that gently processes ingredients to retain nutritional value and enhance palatability. Duck meal is naturally palatable and well-accepted by most dogs, including those transitioning from other proteins or those with selective appetites. The 23lb bag provides excellent value for larger dogs or multi-dog households feeding the same formula across different life stages.
Feeding Guidance and Portion Use
Feed based on your dog's weight, age, and activity level. General adult daily guidelines: 5-15 lbs (1/2 to 1 cup), 15-30 lbs (1 to 1.75 cups), 30-50 lbs (1.75 to 2.5 cups), 50-70 lbs (2.5 to 3.25 cups), 70-90 lbs (3.25 to 4 cups), 90+ lbs (4+ cups). For puppies, adjust portions based on expected adult weight and growth stage - consult your veterinarian for puppy-specific guidance. Pregnant and nursing dogs may require increased portions. Divide daily portions into two meals for adults; puppies may require 3-4 meals daily. Transition gradually over 7-10 days. Always provide fresh, clean water.
Safety, Storage, and Handling
Store in a cool, dry place. Seal the bag tightly after each use to maintain freshness. Always provide fresh, clean water alongside meals.
