Strong Choice
This is a nutrient-dense adult dry food with very high protein and moderate-to-high fat, built around egg and chicken, which are excellent-quality protein sources. The inclusion of whole grains, seeds, and a range of fruits and vegetables offers additional nutrients and fiber, and the calorie density is appropriate for active adult dogs when portioned carefully. It should suit healthy adult dogs well, but its richness and common-allergen proteins mean it may not be ideal for dogs with chicken or egg sensitivities or those needing a lower-calorie diet.

Strengths
- Very high protein (about 45% as-fed) from high-quality animal sources (egg and chicken), which supports lean body mass in active adult dogs.
- Moderate-to-high fat level from ingredients like chicken, sunflower seeds, flax, and coconut, providing energy and essential fatty acids for skin and coat health.
- Includes whole-food ingredients such as brown rice flour, quinoa flakes, carrots, cranberries, broccoli, apples, banana, spinach, flax meal, and kelp, which contribute natural vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fiber.
- Formulated to be complete and balanced for adult maintenance for all breeds and sizes, so it can serve as a sole daily diet for most healthy adult dogs.
Considerations
- Relatively high calorie density (about 4,000 kcal/kg and 420 kcal per cup), so portion control is important for dogs with lower activity levels or a tendency to gain weight.
- Contains chicken and egg, which are common food allergens for some dogs, so it would not be appropriate for pets with known sensitivities to these proteins.
- The high protein and fat content may be too rich for some dogs with certain medical conditions that require more moderate nutrient levels; those dogs may need a more specialized diet.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Egg
Eggs are used in pet foods as a highly digestible, complete animal protein and nutrient source—providing essential amino acids, bioavailable vitamins (A, D, E, B-complex including B12), minerals like selenium and iron, choline and healthy fats—while also improving palatability and texture. They support muscle maintenance, skin/coat and cognitive health in dogs and cats, but raw eggs can carry bacterial risk and contain avidin in whites that may reduce biotin with long-term feeding; some pets may also have egg allergies or require portion control for calorie management.

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
Pomace
Pomace—the pulpy solid left after pressing fruits or vegetables (commonly apple or tomato pomace)—is used in pet foods primarily as a source of dietary fiber and bulk. It supplies fermentable and non‑fermentable fiber that can support healthy digestion and stool quality in dogs and cats, but its nutrient composition is variable and it is low in protein and calories, so manufacturers must control quality and inclusion levels to avoid digestive upset or concerns about being a low‑value filler.
04
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.
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.
