Sojos Complete Senior Turkey & Salmon Recipe Freeze-Dried Dog Food
Verified Jun 15, 2026
A freeze-dried, just-add-water complete diet formulated for adult and senior dogs, using turkey and salmon as the main animal protein sources. It combines meat, organs, whole egg, and a variety of fruits and vegetables, with flaxseed and coconut contributing additional fats and fiber. This food is designed for owners who want a raw-style, minimally processed option that still meets AAFCO maintenance standards.
This is a high-quality, freeze-dried raw-style food that should suit many healthy adult and senior dogs who do well on moderately high-protein, moderate-fat diets. Turkey, turkey liver, salmon, and whole egg provide diverse animal proteins, and the inclusion of fruits, vegetables, and flaxseed supports a broad nutrient profile. It’s formulated to be complete and balanced for maintenance, so it can be used as a primary diet rather than just a topper, as long as the rehydrated calories and portions are appropriate for your dog’s size and activity level.

KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Multiple, clearly named animal protein sources (turkey, salmon, turkey liver, whole egg) provide a good amino acid profile for adult and senior dogs.
- Freeze-dried, minimally processed format helps preserve nutrients while still offering the convenience of a shelf-stable food.
- Includes a variety of whole plant ingredients like sweet potatoes, pumpkin, apples, carrots, cranberries, and flaxseed, which contribute fiber, vitamins, and natural phytonutrients.
- Complete and balanced to AAFCO maintenance standards, so it can be fed as a sole diet for adult and senior dogs rather than only as a supplement or topper.
Considerations
- Because this is a raw-style, high-calorie-dense food (284 kcal per dry cup before rehydration), careful portion control is important to avoid unwanted weight gain, especially in seniors with lower activity levels.
- Contains several common protein allergens (turkey, salmon/fish, egg), so it’s not appropriate for dogs with known sensitivities to any of these ingredients.
- The 26% protein and 12% fat (on a dry, as-fed basis) are moderate for a freeze-dried product; very high-energy or working dogs may need a higher-fat option to meet their calorie needs efficiently.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
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.
02
Sweet Potato
Sweet potato is used in pet foods as a digestible carbohydrate and source of soluble fiber, vitamins (notably beta‑carotene), minerals and antioxidants, often helping with stool quality and serving as a binder or energy ingredient. It is generally well tolerated by dogs and can support gut health, but because cats poorly convert beta‑carotene to vitamin A and require preformed vitamin A from animal sources, sweet potato is not a substitute for meat-based nutrients; its relatively high carbohydrate content also means portion control is advised for overweight or diabetic pets and it should be cooked for best digestibility.
03
Cranberry
Cranberries are used in pet foods and supplements as a source of fiber and antioxidants (notably polyphenols/proanthocyanidins) and are commonly included for their potential urinary tract–supporting properties in dogs and cats. While these compounds may help inhibit bacterial adhesion in the urinary tract, scientific evidence in pets is limited, and owners should choose unsweetened, preservative-free preparations (avoiding products sweetened with xylitol), watch for gastrointestinal upset or effects on urine pH, and consult a veterinarian for pets with urinary stones or taking certain medications.
04
Flaxseed
Flaxseed is used in pet foods as a plant-based source of alpha‑linolenic acid (ALA) omega‑3, soluble and insoluble fiber, and modest protein, often added to support skin and coat condition, digestive health, and kibble texture; ground seed or flaxseed oil is more digestible than whole seed. Dogs can partially convert ALA to long‑chain EPA/DHA but cats convert ALA poorly and therefore still need marine sources for essential DHA/EPA; flax is calorie‑dense, prone to oxidation if not stabilized, and contains lignans (phytoestrogens) and trace cyanogenic compounds, so it should be processed and used in moderation.
05
Whole Egg
Whole egg is a highly digestible, nutrient-dense ingredient commonly used in dog and cat foods as a complete protein and source of healthy fats, essential amino acids, fat‑soluble vitamins (A, D), B vitamins including B12 and choline, and other micronutrients. It enhances palatability and supports muscle, skin and coat health, but should be cooked to reduce salmonella risk and deactivate avidin in raw egg white (which can impair biotin absorption if fed frequently), and may be allergenic or calorie-dense for some pets.
