KibbleLab Score
8.7 out of 10

Strong Choice

This formula is a good option for dogs who need a simpler, gentler diet, especially if you’re trying to avoid multiple animal proteins. The nutrient profile is appropriate for all life stages, including large-breed growth, which is harder to find in sensitive-stomach formulas. Its moderate protein and fat levels make it a solid everyday diet for many dogs, including those with mild digestive issues.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Uses salmon as a single animal protein source, which can help when you’re managing food sensitivities.
  • Complete and balanced for all life stages, including large-breed puppies, which many sensitive-stomach diets do not cover.
  • Includes pumpkin, brown rice, and prebiotics plus Bacillus coagulans to support healthy digestion and stools.
  • Provides added omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids to help support skin and coat health.

Considerations

  • Salmon and fish ingredients can be allergens for some dogs, so it’s not a match if your dog reacts to fish.
  • The 24% protein level is adequate but lower than many active or very high-energy dogs might need.
  • Brown rice and brewers rice are healthy carb sources but may not suit dogs that truly need very low-grain diets.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
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.

02
Brown Rice
Brown rice is a whole-grain carbohydrate and fiber ingredient commonly used in dog and cat foods to provide digestible energy, dietary fiber, and modest amounts of B‑vitamins and minerals; it typically offers more nutrients and fiber than white rice. It’s generally well tolerated and can help with sensitive stomachs, but because it is high in carbohydrates (not a primary protein source) and can contain trace inorganic arsenic depending on sourcing, it should be included in balanced formulations and monitored in overweight or diabetic pets.
03
Brewer's Rice
Brewer’s rice is a milling byproduct of rice processing made up of small broken white rice kernels commonly used in pet foods as a highly digestible carbohydrate source, filler and binder that provides readily available energy for dogs and cats while contributing little protein, fat or fiber. It is generally gentle on the stomach and cost‑effective, but diets using it must supply other ingredients for essential nutrients; pet owners should note its relatively high glycemic load (relevant for weight or diabetic pets), the potential for trace environmental contaminants associated with rice, and not confuse it with brewer’s yeast.
04
Yeast
Yeast (such as brewer’s, nutritional yeast, or yeast extracts) is used in pet foods as a palatability enhancer, a supplemental protein and B‑vitamin source, and for functional components like beta‑glucans and mannans that can support immune and gut health. It can help with appetite, skin/coat quality and digestion, but some pets may be allergic, product strains and processing vary in quality, and higher purine or added-salt levels in certain yeast products can be a concern for animals with specific medical or dietary restrictions.
05
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.
