Good Neutral Watch Flagged
  1. 1
    pork

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

  2. 2
    quinoa

    Pseudo-grain with a complete amino acid profile. Rare in dog food because it's expensive.

  3. 3
    kale

    Leafy green with antioxidants and fiber. Small dose in kibble, but it's not just for marketing.

  4. 4
    carrots

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

  5. 5
    apples rice starch
  6. 6
    sunflower oil

    Common plant oil. Useful in moderation for omega-6, though too much skews the omega ratio against the dog's favor.

  7. 7
    coconut oil

    Saturated fat with medium-chain triglycerides. Mostly marketing in the doses kibble uses, but harmless.

  8. 8
    eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid
  9. 9
    calcium carbonate

    Source of calcium. Functional. Required in complete dog foods, especially those without bone-in meat meals.

  10. 10
    type ii collagen
  11. 11
    salt

    Sodium chloride. Required at small doses for normal physiology. Not a quality concern in standard amounts.

    choline chloride

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

    zinc oxide

    Inorganic zinc. Cheapest mineral form on the market. Functional but less bioavailable than chelated alternatives.

    vitamin e supplement

    Required nutrient and a natural antioxidant. Often pulls double duty as a preservative.

  15. 15
    copper amino acid chelate

    Copper bound to amino acids for better absorption. Premium form versus copper sulfate.

    ferrous fumarate
  17. 17
    d-calcium panthothenate
  18. 18
    vitamin b12 supplement

    cholecalciferol
  20. 20
    riboflavin supplement

    B vitamin (B2). Required in complete dog foods. The standardized form ensures consistent dosing.
