Quick Product Snapshot

Why Pet Owners Choose This Food

• Single-source protein from deboned lamb reduces exposure to multiple protein sources - a key consideration for dogs with known or suspected food sensitivities
• Minimal ingredient list limits the number of potential dietary triggers compared to standard wet food recipes
• Grain-free and potato-free formula addresses two of the most common dietary exclusions for sensitive dogs
• Taurine included to support heart health alongside complete and balanced nutrition
• High moisture content at 78% supports daily hydration and urinary tract health
• Versatile feeding format - works as a complete daily meal or as a topper over a compatible limited ingredient dry food
• Made in the USA with no artificial preservatives, colors, or flavors

Ingredient Transparency

The recipe leads with deboned lamb, followed by water sufficient for processing, lamb liver, and natural flavor. The intentionally short ingredient list is the defining characteristic of this recipe - every ingredient is present for a specific nutritional or functional purpose. Lamb liver contributes organ-based nutrition and palatability. No corn, wheat, soy, potatoes, or artificial preservatives, colors, or flavors are included. The formula is crafted in the USA.

Nutritional Positioning

This wet dog food delivers 7.0% crude protein (min.) and 9.0% crude fat (min.), supported by 78.0% moisture content. The higher fat level relative to the protein level reflects the lamb-forward, minimal ingredient formulation. Taurine is included to support cardiovascular health. This recipe meets the nutritional levels established by AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for adult dog maintenance and is positioned as a complete and balanced daily meal - not a supplement or elimination diet. Consult your veterinarian if your dog has a diagnosed food allergy or requires a strict elimination protocol.

Texture, Palatability, and Feeding Experience

The Limited Ingredient Diet Real Lamb format is a smooth, protein-forward wet food with a high moisture content. The minimal ingredient list means the lamb flavor is the dominant taste and aroma profile, which can appeal to dogs that are selective about complex multi-ingredient recipes. The high fat content from lamb contributes to palatability and satiety. Serving at room temperature improves palatability compared to refrigerated portions.

Feeding Guidance and Portion Use

Can be served as a complete meal or as a premium topper over dry kibble. Typical daily feeding guidelines by body weight: 10-20 lbs - 3/4 to 1-1/4 cans; 20-40 lbs - 1-1/4 to 2 cans; 40-60 lbs - 2 to 2-3/4 cans; 60-80 lbs - 2-3/4 to 3-1/4 cans; 80-100 lbs - 3-1/4 to 4 cans; over 100 lbs - add 1/4 can for each additional 10 lbs. If feeding alongside dry food, reduce wet amount by 6 oz. for every 1/2 cup of dry food. When transitioning from another food, introduce gradually over 7 days. Always provide fresh water alongside meals.

Safety, Storage, and Handling

Store unopened cans in a cool, dry place. After opening, cover and refrigerate unused portions and use within 3 days. Serve at room temperature for best palatability. Always provide fresh water. Keep out of reach of children. If your dog has a diagnosed food allergy or is undergoing a veterinary elimination diet protocol, consult your veterinarian before use.
