Strong Choice
This is a nutrient-dense, meat-forward kibble with a strong emphasis on tripe and mixed red meats, providing a rich amino acid profile for dogs at all life stages. Protein and fat levels are appropriate for active dogs, and the omega-3 and omega-6 levels are quite robust for skin, coat, and overall health. It does rely heavily on legumes and pulses for carbohydrates, so it may not be the best fit for dogs where you are specifically trying to avoid legume-heavy diets.

Strengths
- High protein content at about 38% on a dry matter basis, coming from multiple animal sources including tripe, meat, and fish meals.
- Formulated to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for all life stages, so it can be used for puppies, adults, and breeding dogs if portioned correctly.
- Includes fish oil and flaxseed, providing relatively high omega-3 and omega-6 levels for skin, coat, and general health.
- Contains several probiotic fermentation products, which may help support a healthy digestive microbiome in some dogs.
Considerations
- Uses several legumes and pulses such as lentils, chickpeas, peas, and pea starch as key carbohydrate sources.
- Because this is a legume-heavy, grain-free formula, it should be used with some caution in breeds where diet-associated DCM is a concern.
- Multiple animal proteins are included, so it would not be suitable as a limited-ingredient option for dogs with complex food allergies.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Beef Tripe
Beef tripe (the cow’s stomach lining) is used in pet foods and treats as an animal-based protein source and palatability enhancer, often found in raw, frozen, or minimally processed diets and supplying digestible protein, fats, and some vitamins and minerals. It can also contain natural digestive enzymes and microbes that some claim support gut health, but it is often high in fat and odor, so owners should consider product sourcing and processing, monitor fat-sensitive pets (e.g., those with pancreatitis), and handle or cook it properly to reduce bacterial risk.
02
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.
03
Venison Tripe
Venison tripe is the stomach lining of deer used in pet foods as an animal protein and organ ingredient valued for palatability, fats, amino acids and trace minerals. It can provide beneficial digestive enzymes and, when sold as 'green tripe,' probiotic-like components that may support gut health in dogs and cats, but it is odorous, can be high in fat, may carry bacterial contamination if not properly processed, and should be included as part of a balanced, veterinarian-approved diet rather than the sole nutrition source.
04
Beef
Beef is commonly used in dog and cat foods as a primary animal protein and palatability enhancer, supplying high-quality essential amino acids, B vitamins, iron, and zinc that support muscle maintenance and overall health. Owners should note beef can be calorie- and fat-dense and is a relatively common allergen, and raw or improperly handled beef carries microbial risks, so formulation, fat content, and sourcing/processing are important considerations.

05
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.
