Strong Choice
This is a rich, meat-heavy freeze-dried raw diet designed for puppies, adults, and senior dogs. The first several ingredients are lamb meat, organs, and bone, which provide highly concentrated protein, fat, and minerals. It’s best suited to dogs who do well on higher-fat, high-calorie diets and to owners comfortable handling raw-style products.

Where these benefits come from
Benefits the manufacturer highlights in its own product marketing. KibbleLab lists them for reference and does not verify these claims.KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Lamb, lamb heart, liver, and ground bone make this a very animal-protein–focused recipe.
- AAFCO complete and balanced for all life stages, so it can be used as a sole diet or a topper.
- Freeze-dried format preserves nutrients while being more convenient than fresh raw diets.
- Includes salmon oil and seeds, which can supply beneficial omega fatty acids.
Considerations
- Protein and fat are both quite high, so this may be too rich for dogs needing lower-calorie or lower-fat diets.
- Lamb and salmon are common allergens for some dogs, so it’s not ideal if your dog reacts to those proteins.
- As a raw-style product, it requires careful handling and may not be appropriate for severely immunocompromised people in the household.
- Calorie density is high, so portions need to be measured carefully to avoid unwanted weight gain.

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.

02
Lamb Heart
Lamb heart is a nutrient-dense organ meat used in pet foods and treats as a high-quality animal protein and palatability enhancer, often offered as a novel protein for pets with food sensitivities. It supplies essential amino acids (including taurine and carnitine), B vitamins and minerals important for canine—and especially feline—health, but should be used as part of balanced formulations and handled or cooked safely if fed raw to avoid nutrient imbalances or food-safety risks.
03
Lamb Liver
Lamb liver is an organ meat used as a nutrient-dense protein and flavor enhancer in pet foods and treats, supplying concentrated vitamins (especially vitamin A and B12), iron, copper and high-quality amino acids important for both dogs and cats. It is highly palatable and can help prevent nutrient deficiencies, but should be fed in moderation because excessive liver intake can lead to vitamin A toxicity and digestive upset, and proper sourcing/handling is important to avoid foodborne pathogens.
04
Ground Lamb Bone
Ground lamb bone is used in pet foods as a concentrated source of calcium, phosphorus and other minerals and can also add flavor, texture and binding properties to kibble or treats. For dogs and cats it can help support skeletal mineralization when formulas are properly balanced, but it should be included in controlled amounts from reputable sources because excess minerals can upset the Ca:P ratio and poorly processed bone material may carry contaminants or quality/safety risks.
05
Butternut Squash
Butternut squash is a cooked vegetable ingredient used in pet foods as a source of soluble and insoluble fiber, complex carbohydrates, and antioxidants (notably beta‑carotene/vitamin A), often included to aid digestion, add moisture, and support healthy weight management. It can benefit dogs and, to a lesser extent, cats by supplying fiber, vitamins A and C, and potassium, but should be cooked and seedless for digestibility, used sparingly in diabetic animals due to carbohydrate content, and treated as a complement to—not a replacement for—animal-based protein.
