KibbleLab Score
8.5 out of 10

Strong Choice

This formula provides a nutrient-dense, high-protein option for adult dogs who do well on chicken-based diets and owners who prefer a less-processed style food. The macronutrient profile is relatively rich, so it can suit active dogs or those who maintain weight easily on higher-calorie foods. It’s AAFCO-formulated for adult maintenance, making it appropriate as a primary diet for healthy adult dogs.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Chicken and whole dried egg provide high-quality, highly digestible animal protein sources.
  • The protein and fat levels are relatively high, which can work well for many active or lean adult dogs.
  • Includes a variety of fruits, vegetables, quinoa, and flaxseed that provide fiber and natural phytonutrients.
  • Formulated to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for adult maintenance, so it can serve as a complete diet.

Considerations

  • Chicken and egg are common food allergens, so this wouldn’t be a good fit for dogs sensitive to those ingredients.
  • At about 410 calories per cup, this is a calorie-dense food, so portion control will be important for dogs prone to weight gain.
  • The recipe includes chickpeas, a pulse ingredient; for dogs at risk of heart disease, discuss overall diet pattern with your vet.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Whole Egg
Whole egg is a highly digestible, nutrient-dense ingredient commonly used in dog and cat foods as a complete protein and source of healthy fats, essential amino acids, fat‑soluble vitamins (A, D), B vitamins including B12 and choline, and other micronutrients. It enhances palatability and supports muscle, skin and coat health, but should be cooked to reduce salmonella risk and deactivate avidin in raw egg white (which can impair biotin absorption if fed frequently), and may be allergenic or calorie-dense for some pets.
02
Chicken
Chicken is a common animal-based protein in dog and cat foods, supplying essential amino acids, B vitamins, and energy-dense fats that support muscle maintenance, growth, and overall health; for cats it also contributes toward dietary taurine but must be present in sufficient amounts or provided via supplementation. It is prized for its digestibility and palatability, though some pets develop sensitivities or allergies to chicken, and nutritional value and safety depend on ingredient quality and processing—raw chicken carries pathogen risks and whole bones can pose choking or GI hazards.

03
Brown Rice Flour
Brown rice flour is a gluten‑free carbohydrate source and functional binder commonly used in kibble, treats and some wet foods to provide digestible complex carbohydrates, a small amount of fiber, B‑vitamins and trace minerals while improving dough texture and extrusion properties. It supplies readily available energy for dogs (who tolerate grains well) but is not nutritionally essential for obligate‑carnivore cats; formulators should account for its caloric contribution, rare rice sensitivities, and the potential for low levels of inorganic arsenic, risks that are minimized by reputable sourcing and balanced diet formulation.
04
Carrot
Carrot is used in pet foods as a vegetable ingredient providing fiber, moisture, texture and antioxidant nutrients such as beta‑carotene (a provitamin A), vitamin K, vitamin C and potassium, contributing to palatability and digestive bulk. Cooked carrots are more digestible and release more beta‑carotene, but cats cannot efficiently convert beta‑carotene to active vitamin A so carrots are more nutritionally useful for dogs than as a primary vitamin A source for cats; they should be fed in moderation due to natural sugars and should be offered in appropriately sized pieces to avoid choking.
View ingredient
05
Quinoa
Quinoa is used in pet foods as a cooked pseudo‑grain providing digestible carbohydrates, fiber and a relatively high‑quality plant protein with a broad amino acid profile. It supplies B vitamins and minerals (e.g., iron, magnesium) and can be a useful energy and fiber source for dogs, but should be cooked and rinsed to remove bitter saponins, offered in moderation due to calorie density and potential digestive upset, and it should not replace essential animal‑derived nutrients (such as taurine) required by cats.
