    dehydrated chicken

    Real meat. Primary protein source, with the amino acid profile dogs actually evolved to eat.

    dehydrated pork

    Real meat. Dense protein and fat, though less common in dog food than chicken or beef.

  7. 7
    dried whole eggs

    Real vegetable. Fiber, beta-carotene, antioxidants. Same as carrots, sometimes singular on labels.

  17. 17

    suncured alfalfa meal

    Sun-dried alfalfa, preserving more of the natural vitamins than heat-dried versions.

  19. 19
    inulin
