Top Pick
Overall, this is a solid, mid-range dry food for healthy adult dogs that provides moderate protein and fat with a mix of animal and plant-based ingredients. The formula uses real chicken and chicken meal up front, then adds salmon, grains, peas, and soybean meal to round out the protein and carbohydrate profile. It should suit many average adult dogs well, especially those that do fine on mixed-protein diets and don’t need a very high-protein formula.

Strengths
- Chicken and chicken meal are the first ingredients, giving a clear animal-based protein foundation for most dogs.
- Protein and fat levels (23% protein, 13% fat) are appropriate for many adult pets with normal activity levels.
- Includes omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, vitamin E, vitamin C, taurine, and L-carnitine, which support overall wellness and heart and immune function.
- Fruits and vegetables like blueberries, pumpkin, carrots, and cranberries contribute natural antioxidants on top of the added vitamins.
Considerations
- Contains several common allergens (chicken, salmon/fish, soy, and corn), so it’s not a good match for dogs with known sensitivities to any of these.
- Peas appear as the third ingredient and are used along with other plant sources for protein and carbs; for dogs of breeds with known heart concerns, some owners and veterinarians prefer diets with a lower reliance on legumes.
- The protein level is moderate rather than high, so very athletic or working dogs may do better on a higher-protein formula.
- Multiple carbohydrate sources (peas, sorghum, corn, barley, potatoes, sweet potatoes) make this more of a mixed, moderate-calorie diet than a low-carb option.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Chicken
Chicken is a common animal-based protein in dog and cat foods, supplying essential amino acids, B vitamins, and energy-dense fats that support muscle maintenance, growth, and overall health; for cats it also contributes toward dietary taurine but must be present in sufficient amounts or provided via supplementation. It is prized for its digestibility and palatability, though some pets develop sensitivities or allergies to chicken, and nutritional value and safety depend on ingredient quality and processing—raw chicken carries pathogen risks and whole bones can pose choking or GI hazards.

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
Grain Sorghum
Grain sorghum is a gluten-free cereal grain used in pet foods primarily as a carbohydrate and fiber source that also contributes modest plant protein, B vitamins, and minerals, often serving as an alternative to corn or wheat. It supplies energy and dietary fiber for dogs and cats but is relatively low in certain essential amino acids (like lysine), and some tannin-containing varieties can reduce palatability and nutrient digestibility—processing and balanced formulation mitigate these issues, and sourcing should guard against mycotoxin contamination.
05
Soybean
Soybean is a common plant-based ingredient in pet foods used as a concentrated protein and fat source (in forms such as soybean meal, soy protein concentrate/isolate, and soybean oil) that supplies essential amino acids, calories, and beneficial polyunsaturated fats. It can be a cost-effective, digestible protein for many dogs but is less ideal as the sole protein for obligate carnivores like cats and may trigger allergies or deliver phytoestrogens and antinutritional factors (e.g., trypsin inhibitors, phytates) that are typically reduced by proper processing, so diets using soy should be balanced and monitored.
