Raw Medley Chicken, Oats & Turkey Recipe Dry Dog Food

Verified Jun 14, 2026

Dog · Dry Adult All Breed Sizes

This is a high-protein dry food for adult dogs that combines baked kibble with freeze-dried raw chicken and turkey pieces. It uses deboned chicken, chicken meal, and turkey meal as primary protein sources, with oats and sweet potato for carbohydrates and added fruits, veggies, and probiotics for digestive and overall wellness support. The formula is designed for adult maintenance and suits moderately to highly active dogs who do well on a richer diet.

KibbleLab Score
8.4 out of 10

This is a very nice adult dry formula for healthy dogs who do well on poultry-based diets. It offers a good protein level from multiple animal sources, moderate fat, and a reasonable fiber level, with added omega-3s, omega-6s, taurine, and probiotics. It does use lentils and chickpeas fairly high in the ingredient list, so I’d be a bit more cautious in breeds where diet-associated heart disease has been a concern.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Multiple animal proteins (chicken, turkey, duck) at the top of the list provide high-quality, varied amino acids.
  • Adult-maintenance nutrient profile with 30% protein and 15% fat suits many moderately active adult dogs.
  • Includes guaranteed levels of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which can support skin, coat, and overall health.
  • Added probiotics, chicory root, and miscanthus grass provide mixed fiber and microbiome support for digestion.

Considerations

  • Contains chicken and turkey, so it is not a good choice for dogs with poultry allergies.
  • Lentils and chickpeas appear in the top ingredients; in grain-free, legume-heavy diets this has been linked to heart issues in some dogs.
  • Formulated by AAFCO nutrient profiles rather than being validated in feeding trials, so real-world digestibility has not been directly tested.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Deboned Chicken
Deboned chicken is a common primary animal protein in pet foods, providing highly digestible essential amino acids and nutrients such as B vitamins and iron that support muscle maintenance, growth, and overall health in both dogs and cats. It is generally palatable and relatively lean, but can be a common food allergen for some animals and its nutritional and fat content varies with inclusion of skin or fat—ensure proper sourcing and handling to reduce contamination risk and consult a veterinarian if you suspect a food sensitivity.
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
Turkey
Turkey is commonly used as a primary animal protein in dog and cat foods, offering highly digestible, high‑quality protein and supplying essential amino acids along with B vitamins, phosphorus and zinc to support muscle maintenance and metabolism. Its fat level varies by cut so products can be lean or richer; some pets may develop allergies to poultry, cooked bones are hazardous, raw meat carries bacterial risk, and owners should rely on balanced commercial formulations (and ensure adequate taurine for cats) if turkey is a main ingredient.
04
Sweet Potato
Sweet potato is used in pet foods as a digestible carbohydrate and source of soluble fiber, vitamins (notably beta‑carotene), minerals and antioxidants, often helping with stool quality and serving as a binder or energy ingredient. It is generally well tolerated by dogs and can support gut health, but because cats poorly convert beta‑carotene to vitamin A and require preformed vitamin A from animal sources, sweet potato is not a substitute for meat-based nutrients; its relatively high carbohydrate content also means portion control is advised for overweight or diabetic pets and it should be cooked for best digestibility.
05
Oat
Oats are commonly used in pet foods as a digestible carbohydrate and source of soluble fiber (beta‑glucans), plant protein, B vitamins and minerals, which can support healthy digestion and help moderate blood glucose and cholesterol. They are generally well tolerated by dogs and can be included sparingly for cats, but owners should avoid flavored or sweetened preparations (and ingredients like xylitol or raisins), be mindful of possible grain sensitivities or cross‑contamination with gluten, and prefer cooked oats for better digestibility and portion control due to caloric content.
