Nutritional Positioning
Guaranteed analysis per serving: Crude Protein (min.) 8.5%, Crude Fat (min.) 3.5%, Crude Fiber (max.) 1.5%, Moisture (max.) 82%. The high moisture content (82%) actively supports daily hydration while delivering concentrated nutrition in a soft, palatable texture. This recipe meets the nutritional levels established by AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for all life stages, including growth of large size dogs (70 lbs. or more as an adult).
Texture, Palatability, and Feeding Experience
This is a minced wet food with a soft, moist texture well-suited for small mouths and aging or sensitive teeth. Duck as a novel protein tends to be highly palatable for dogs that have developed sensitivities to more common proteins like chicken or beef. The single-serve 3.5 oz cup format makes portioning straightforward and keeps each meal fresh without refrigerating a partially used can.
Feeding Guidance and Portion Use
Serve at room temperature for best palatability. Adjust daily portions based on your dog's age, activity level, and metabolism. Transition gradually over 7-10 days by mixing increasing amounts with your dog's current food to avoid digestive upset. Refrigerate unused portions and use within 3 days of opening.
Safety, Storage, and Handling
Always provide fresh, clean water alongside each meal. Store unopened cups in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Refrigerate after opening and use within 3 days. No artificial preservatives - handle accordingly.
