Tripe Dry Green Lamb Tripe Formula Dry Dog Food

Verified Aug 29, 2026

Dog · Dry All Life Stages All Breed Sizes

This is a dry all-life-stages dog food built around lamb tripe and turkey as the main animal protein sources. It uses peas and pea starch for carbohydrates, with added salmon oil and flaxseed for omega fatty acids, plus probiotics and chicory root to support digestive health. The formula is designed to be nutrient-dense enough for puppies, adults, and breeding dogs when fed according to the guidelines.

KibbleLab Score
8.8 out of 10

Strong Choice

Overall, this is a well-formulated, higher-protein kibble that should suit many healthy dogs from puppy through adulthood, including pregnant and lactating females. Lamb tripe and turkey provide good-quality animal protein, and the added omega-3s, omega-6s, and probiotics are nice extras. The heavy reliance on peas as a main carbohydrate source does mean it falls into the legume-rich, grain-free category, so I’d be a bit more cautious in breeds with known heart concerns.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Lamb tripe and turkey provide good-quality animal protein, with about 30% protein as fed, appropriate for all life stages when fed correctly.
  • Includes salmon oil and flaxseed, giving a useful balance of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids that support skin and coat health.
  • Contains added taurine and several probiotic cultures, which can support heart and digestive health in many dogs.
  • Complete and balanced to AAFCO standards for all life stages, so it can be used for puppies, adults, and breeding dogs if portions are adjusted.

Considerations

  • Peas, pea starch, and pea protein are major ingredients, making this a legume-heavy, grain-free diet linked in some studies to heart issues in certain dogs.
  • Multiple protein sources are present, including lamb and turkey, so it is not ideal as a strict limited-ingredient option for allergy workups.
  • The calcium and phosphorus levels are on the higher side, so for large-breed puppies I would prefer a formula specifically designed and tested for large-breed growth.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Lamb Tripe
Lamb tripe is the stomach lining of lambs commonly used in dog and cat foods as a highly palatable animal-based protein and flavor enhancer that also supplies fat, digestible amino acids, B vitamins (notably B12), iron and other trace minerals. It can provide natural digestive enzymes and, when unwashed, beneficial microbes, but its strong odor, higher fat content and risk of spoilage or pathogen contamination mean it should be properly sourced and handled, introduced gradually to avoid GI upset, and included as part of a balanced diet rather than the sole ingredient.
02
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.

03
Pea
Pea is a plant-based ingredient used in pet foods as a source of protein, soluble and insoluble fiber, and micronutrients (often included as whole peas, pea flour, or pea protein concentrate) to boost protein content and improve texture. While peas can provide digestible carbohydrates, fiber, and some plant protein useful especially for dogs, they are not a complete protein for obligate carnivores like cats and — when overused, particularly in concentrated forms or as a major component of grain‑free diets — have been scrutinized for a possible association with canine dilated cardiomyopathy and can contribute to nutrient imbalances or excess calories, so balanced formulation and compliance with AAFCO nutritional profiles are important.

04
Pea Starch
Pea starch is used in pet foods primarily as a carbohydrate binder, thickener and texture agent to help form kibble and provide readily digestible energy, rather than as a protein or fiber source. It is a gluten‑free, highly digestible starch that can increase calorie density and glycemic load (important for overweight or diabetic pets) and, like other pea/legume ingredients used in high amounts in some grain‑free diets, should be part of a balanced formulation chosen with veterinary guidance for pets with special health concerns.
05
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.
