About Mutton
Mutton is the meat of mature sheep used in pet foods as a high-quality animal protein source providing essential amino acids, fats and minerals that support maintenance, muscle health and palatability for dogs and cats. It can serve as an alternative protein in limited-ingredient formulas but is often higher in fat and connective tissue than younger lamb, so owners should monitor calories and fat (important for pets prone to pancreatitis), consider potential red‑meat allergies, and ensure the diet is properly processed and balanced to meet species-specific nutrient needs.
