Strong Choice
This is a nutrient-dense, all-life-stages kibble that offers a nice mix of animal proteins from lamb tripe, salmon, and turkey meal, with moderate calories per cup. The protein and fat levels are well suited to most healthy, active dogs, and the added omega fatty acids and taurine are reassuring, especially in a legume-heavy recipe. It can work well for owners looking for a tripe-based formula, as long as peas as a main ingredient are acceptable for their dog.

Strengths
- Lamb tripe, salmon, and turkey meal provide multiple high-quality animal protein sources with 30% protein as fed.
- Includes both salmon oil and flaxseed, giving a solid supply of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids for skin and coat health.
- AAFCO complete and balanced for all life stages, so it is suitable for puppies, adults, and breeding dogs when fed as directed.
- Contains added taurine and several probiotic cultures, which can support heart and digestive health.
Considerations
- Peas, pea starch, and pea protein are major ingredients, so this may not be ideal for dogs where you want to limit legumes due to emerging DCM concerns.
- Contains multiple protein sources, including lamb, salmon, and turkey, so it is not a good fit for an elimination diet or very limited-ingredient approach.
- Moderate calorie density means less active or overweight-prone dogs may still need portion control and monitoring of body condition.

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
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.

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.
