Ingredient concerns

• Pea Protein (medium concern): Plant-based protein concentrates like pea protein can artificially inflate the total protein percentage on guaranteed analysis without providing the same amino acid profile as animal proteins. Associated with the FDA investigation into grain-free diets and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) in dogs, though a causal link has not been definitively established.

Guaranteed analysis (dry-matter basis)

On a dry-matter basis (water removed for a fair wet-vs-dry comparison): protein 17.1%, fat 7.1%, fiber 2.9%, ash 7.5%, carbohydrate 65.4%. By calories: 17.1% from protein, 17.3% from fat, 65.6% from carbohydrate.

Dry food, with grains.
