Ingredient Transparency
The first five ingredients are Lamb Meal, Lentils, Chickpeas, Field Peas, and Canola Oil. Lamb meal provides a concentrated protein source with a higher protein density than fresh lamb. Lentils, chickpeas, and field peas serve as wholesome, grain-free carbohydrate sources. Canola oil, flaxseed meal, and menhaden fish oil contribute beneficial fatty acids for skin and coat health. Kelp, spinach, and carrots provide additional micronutrient support. No artificial additives, no chicken or chicken fat, and no GMO ingredients are used in this formula.
Nutritional Positioning
The guaranteed analysis shows crude protein at 24% minimum, crude fat at 12% minimum, crude fiber at 4% maximum, and moisture at 10.5% maximum. This formula is complete and balanced, meeting nutritional standards established for canine nutrition across all life stages. The protein-to-fat ratio is calibrated to support the higher metabolic rate typical of small breed dogs without excess caloric density.
Texture, Palatability, and Feeding Experience
This is a dry kibble formulated in a smaller size specifically for small breed mouths, making it easier to chew and reducing the risk of gulping. The slow-cook processing method enhances palatability while preserving ingredient integrity. Most small breed dogs transition well to this formula, particularly those coming from chicken-based diets or those with ingredient sensitivities. Palatability may vary by individual dog preference.
Feeding Guidance and Portion Use
This is a complete and balanced diet intended as a primary daily meal. Adult dogs may be fed once or twice daily. Puppies 5 months or younger should receive the recommended daily amount divided into three meals; from 6 to 12 months, divide into two meals; from 13 to 18 months, feed once daily. Feed pregnant dogs 50% more during the last 3 weeks of pregnancy. Lactating dogs require twice the adult amount, fed 3 to 4 times daily. Adjust portions based on your dog's age, activity level, and body condition to maintain a healthy weight.
Safety, Storage, and Handling
Store in a cool, dry place. Reseal the bag tightly after each use to maintain freshness. Always provide fresh, clean water alongside meals. When transitioning from another food, gradually mix increasing amounts of this formula with your dog's current food over 7 to 10 days to support digestive adjustment.
