Good Neutral Watch Flagged
  1. 1
    chicken & turkey: chicken
  2. 2
    turkey

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

  3. 3
    chicken hearts
  4. 4
    flaxseed

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

  5. 5
    sweet potato

    Complex carb with fiber and beta-carotene. Gentle on the stomach.

  6. 6
    chicken liver

    Organ meat. Dense in protein, iron, vitamin A, and the B vitamins. Among the most nutrient-rich ingredients a dog can eat.

  7. 7
    carrots

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

  8. 8
    ground krill
  9. 9
    ground pumpkin seeds
  10. 10
    blueberries

    Antioxidants, real. But the amount in any kibble is too small to do much. Mostly marketing.

  11. 11
    spinach

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

  12. 12
    cinnamon
  13. 13
    sea salt

    Same as salt. Required at small doses for normal physiology.

  14. 14
    dried kelp

    Natural source of iodine and trace minerals. A common premium-brand inclusion.

  15. 15
    dried yeast

    Natural source of B vitamins and trace minerals. Adds a savory flavor that dogs respond well to.

  16. 16
    mixed tocopherols . beef & salmon: beef
  17. 17
    salmon

    Real fish meat. Natural source of omega-3s, which kibble usually has to add back from oil.

  18. 18
    beef liver

    Organ meat. Among the most nutrient-dense ingredients available, rich in B vitamins, iron, and vitamin A.

  19. 19
    flaxseed

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

  20. 20
    beef heart
  21. 21
    carrots

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

  22. 22
    cranberries

    Often added with a urinary-tract-support marketing angle. Real cranberry compounds help in concentrate form, but kibble doses are small.

  23. 23
    ground krill
  24. 24
    green peas

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

  25. 25
    ground pumpkin seeds

Showing first 25 of 99. Position 1-5 has the largest weight in the recipe.

16 of 25 ingredients have a curated note. Coverage grows over time.
