Carnivore Grain-Free Lamb + Wild Boar Dry Dog Food
Verified Jun 6, 2026
A high-protein, grain-free dry food featuring deboned lamb, lamb meal, salmon, herring meal, and wild boar as key animal protein sources. Lentils, peas, and chickpeas supply carbohydrates and additional protein, while added omega oils and probiotics support skin, coat, and digestive health. It is formulated for dogs of all ages except growing large-breed puppies and is geared toward active, high-energy dogs who do well on a richer diet.
This is a protein-dense, grain-free kibble with multiple high-quality, named animal proteins at the top of the ingredient list, making it a solid option for active dogs who tolerate legumes well. The added omega-3 and omega-6 fats, along with probiotics, are nice touches for skin, coat, and gut support. It is not appropriate for large-breed puppies, and because legumes are prominent, it’s best chosen with some caution in breeds where diet-associated heart disease has been a concern.

What "not formulated for" means
Life stages this food isn't certified complete and balanced for, based on its AAFCO statement.KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Multiple named animal proteins (deboned lamb, lamb meal, salmon, herring meal, wild boar) provide high-quality, diverse amino acids and a robust 32% minimum protein level suitable for most active dogs.
- Contains both salmon oil and flaxseed, supplying omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids that support skin and coat health.
- Includes added probiotics (Lactobacillus and Enterococcus species) and chicory root as a prebiotic fiber, which can help maintain a healthy digestive microbiome.
- AAFCO complete and balanced for all life stages except large-breed growth, so it can nutritionally support most puppies, adults, and seniors when fed as directed.
Considerations
- Grain-free with lentils, peas, and chickpeas high in the ingredient list; legume-heavy grain-free diets have been linked to some cases of dilated cardiomyopathy in dogs, so discuss with your vet if you have a breed at higher risk for heart disease.
- Not suitable for large-breed puppies (expected adult weight 70 lb or more) due to specific calcium and energy needs in that group.
- Contains common animal proteins (lamb, chicken fat, multiple fish sources), so it is not a good fit for dogs with known food allergies to these ingredients.
- Energy density is relatively high at 453 kcal per cup, which is great for very active dogs but may require careful portion control for dogs with lower activity levels or a tendency to gain weight.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Lamb
Lamb is commonly used in dog and cat foods as a high-quality animal protein that supplies essential amino acids, iron and B vitamins and is often chosen for its palatability or as a “novel” protein in elimination diets. It can be higher in fat and calories than some other meats and may still cause allergic reactions in sensitive animals, so owners of overweight pets or those with food sensitivities should consult a veterinarian and use proper handling/cooking practices if feeding raw or homemade lamb.

It can be higher in fat and calories than some other meats and may still cause allergic reactions in sensitive animals, so owners of overweight pets or those with food sensitivities should consult a veterinarian and use proper handling/cooking practices if feeding raw or homemade lamb.
03
Salmon
Salmon is commonly used as a high-quality animal protein and rich source of omega‑3 fatty acids (EPA/DHA) in dog and cat foods, supporting skin and coat condition, joint and cognitive health, and overall muscle maintenance. While very nutritious, salmon can be an allergen for some pets and raw salmon may pose risks from parasites, thiaminase-related thiamine loss, and region-specific pathogens (e.g., salmon poisoning); owners should avoid feeding uncooked bones and consider sourcing to minimize contaminant and sustainability concerns.
04
Herring
Herring is commonly used as a high-quality, palatable fish protein and oil source in dog and cat foods, supplying digestible protein along with beneficial long-chain omega-3s (EPA/DHA), vitamin D, B vitamins and trace minerals. It can support skin, coat and joint health, but may be an allergen for some pets and raw fish can contain thiaminase (typically destroyed by commercial cooking); owners should also consider fat content for pancreatitis-prone animals and look for responsibly sourced, low-contaminant products.
05
Lentil
Lentils are a plant-based source of protein, complex carbohydrates, fiber and micronutrients (notably folate and iron) commonly used in pet foods to add bulk, promote satiety and help moderate post-meal blood sugar. They can be a useful ingredient for dogs when properly processed and balanced with animal-derived amino acids, but lentil protein is less digestible and incomplete for obligate carnivores like cats; high legume inclusion can also increase gas or digestive upset and has been discussed in the context of diet-associated heart concerns in dogs, so lentils should be used in nutritionally complete, vetted formulations.
