Adult Sensitive Stomach & Sensitive Skin Turkey & Vegetables Stew Wet Dog Food, 2.8-oz pouch, case of 24

Wet and fresh foods contain more water than kibble (typically 65-78%). On a dry-matter basis, this food's protein content is roughly 18%, comparable to premium kibble (typically 30-45% DMB protein).

1. 1

   chicken broth

   Real broth, adds flavor and moisture. Negligible nutrition on its own but tells you the recipe leans on real meat.

2. 2

   turkey

   Real meat. Lean protein, good amino acid profile, often well-tolerated by dogs sensitive to chicken.

   protein animal
3. 3

   carrots

   Real vegetable. Fiber, beta-carotene, and a small amount of antioxidant value.

   vegetable
4. 4

   pork liver

   Organ meat. Dense in B vitamins, iron, and vitamin A. Among the most nutritious ingredients on any label.

   protein animal
5. 5

   rice

   Generic rice. Could be white or brown, the label doesn't say. Brown rice would be specified if it were.

   grain
6. 6

   chicken

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

7. 7

   rice starch
8. 8

   spinach

   Leafy green. Some iron, vitamin K, and fiber. The dose in kibble is small but it's real food.

   vegetable
9. 9

   green peas

   Same as peas. Useful in small amounts. The concern is when pulses dominate the top of the ingredient list. See why →

   legume
10. 10

    hydrolyzed chicken flavor

    Hydrolyzed chicken used as a palatability enhancer. Real ingredient, tiny inclusion, no quality signal either way.

11. 11

    flaxseed

    Plant source of omega-3. Helpful for skin and coat, though dogs absorb omega-3 from fish more efficiently.

    fat
12. 12

    soybean oil

    Plant oil. High in omega-6, which is required but commonly oversupplied. Fine in moderation.

13. 13

    potassium alginate
14. 14

    powdered cellulose

    Plant fiber, often from wood pulp. Cheap bulk filler. Not harmful, but a tell that the recipe is reaching for inexpensive bulk.

    fiber
15. 15

    calcium chloride
16. 16

    guar gum

    Thickener common in wet food. Emerging research on emulsifiers and the gut microbiome, but no smoking gun in dogs yet.

    fiber
17. 17

    dicalcium phosphate

    Calcium and phosphorus combined. Required source of both minerals, especially in formulas without much bone content.

    mineral
18. 18

    calcium lactate

    Calcium source from lactic acid fermentation. Functional, well-tolerated.

19. 19

    calcium gluconate
20. 20

    l-lysine

    Essential amino acid. Plant-protein-heavy formulas sometimes add it to round out the amino acid profile.

    supplement
21. 21

    monosodium phosphate

    Mineral source and preservative. Standard inclusion at small doses.

22. 22

    sodium tripolyphosphate

    Preservative and texture agent in wet food. Functional at small doses, not a major concern, but some brands avoid it.

    mineral
23. 23

    choline chloride

    Essential nutrient for liver and brain function. Standard inclusion in complete dog foods.

    supplement
24. 24

    magnesium oxide

    Inorganic magnesium. Functional at AAFCO doses, less efficiently absorbed than chelated forms.

    mineral
25. 25

    taurine

    Amino acid critical for heart health. Especially important in grain-free or pulse-heavy formulas where natural taurine precursors run thin.
