Ingredient concerns

• Animal Digest (high concern): Animal digest does not specify the source species, making it impossible to trace or verify quality. It is essentially a palatability enhancer made from chemically or enzymatically broken-down animal tissues of unspecified origin. Pets with food allergies cannot safely consume products with generic animal digest since the protein source is unknown.
• Yellow 5 (high concern): Like Red 40, Yellow 5 provides no nutritional value and is added only for appearance. It has been associated with hypersensitivity reactions and behavioral effects in children in multiple studies. Banned or restricted in several countries. The EU requires warning labels on products containing tartrazine. No legitimate reason for its inclusion in pet food.

Guaranteed analysis (dry-matter basis)

On a dry-matter basis (water removed for a fair wet-vs-dry comparison): protein 14.6%, fat 1.2%, fiber 9.8%, ash 8.5%, carbohydrate 65.9%. By calories: 17.5% from protein, 3.5% from fat, 79% from carbohydrate.

Dry food, grain-free, for the all life stage.
