8.5 out of 10

Strong Choice

This is a very high-protein, rabbit-based freeze-dried raw diet designed for dogs at all life stages. The single animal protein and simple ingredient list can be helpful for some dogs with food sensitivities who need a novel protein. It offers a nutrient-dense option for owners specifically seeking a complete raw-style diet in a shelf-stable form.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Rabbit with bone as the main ingredient provides highly digestible animal protein and natural minerals.
  • The formula is complete and balanced to AAFCO standards for all life stages, including puppies and adults.
  • Organic vegetables and fruits add natural fiber and phytonutrients to support overall wellness.
  • Freeze-dried processing helps retain nutrients while offering the convenience of a dry food.

Considerations

  • Rabbit is still a meat protein, so it will not help dogs with general animal-protein allergies.
  • This is a very rich, high-protein and high-fat food, which may be too intense for some dogs with pancreatitis or fat-sensitive conditions.
  • Being grain-free and very low in starch, it may not suit dogs that do better on more moderate protein or higher carbohydrate diets.
  • Raw-style diets may not be ideal for immunocompromised pets, so discuss this type of food with your veterinarian if your dog has health issues.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Rabbit With Bone
Rabbit with bone is used as a novel animal protein and mineral source in pet foods, supplying highly digestible protein plus bone-derived calcium, phosphorus, collagen and marrow fats. It can be a good option for dogs or cats with food sensitivities, but should be part of a complete, properly formulated diet because raw or improperly processed bones can pose bacterial or physical hazards and diets relying solely on rabbit may require additional taurine and nutrient supplementation for cats.
02
Broccoli
Broccoli is used as a low‑calorie vegetable additive or treat ingredient rather than a protein source, providing fiber, vitamins (A, K, folate), minerals and antioxidants like sulforaphane that can support digestion and cellular health in dogs and, to a lesser extent, cats. It should be offered in small, plain, cooked or finely chopped portions because raw or large amounts can cause gas, gastrointestinal upset, choking, and—if fed excessively—potential thyroid interference from cruciferous compounds; avoid added seasonings such as onion or garlic.

03
Carrot
Carrot is used in pet foods as a vegetable ingredient providing fiber, moisture, texture and antioxidant nutrients such as beta‑carotene (a provitamin A), vitamin K, vitamin C and potassium, contributing to palatability and digestive bulk. Cooked carrots are more digestible and release more beta‑carotene, but cats cannot efficiently convert beta‑carotene to active vitamin A so carrots are more nutritionally useful for dogs than as a primary vitamin A source for cats; they should be fed in moderation due to natural sugars and should be offered in appropriately sized pieces to avoid choking.

04
Squash
Squash is used in pet foods as a low‑calorie vegetable ingredient that provides digestible fiber, moisture and nutrients such as beta‑carotene (a vitamin A precursor), vitamin C and potassium, which can support digestive health, weight management and antioxidant protection. It is generally safe for dogs and cats when cooked or pureed but offers limited protein for obligate carnivores, so owners should avoid salted or seasoned preparations, remove seeds, and introduce it gradually to prevent gastrointestinal upset.

05
Blueberry
Blueberries are used in pet foods and treats as a low‑calorie source of dietary fiber, vitamins (notably vitamin C) and antioxidant phytochemicals (anthocyanins), providing natural color and mild flavor. They may support general antioxidant and digestive health in dogs and, to a lesser extent, cats (obligate carnivores), but should be offered in moderation due to natural sugars and possible gastrointestinal upset, and owners should avoid products with added sweeteners (especially xylitol) or harmful preservatives.
