Hund-N-Flocken Lamb & Whole Grains Dry Dog Food

Verified Jun 7, 2026

Dog · Dry Adult All Breed Sizes

This is a lamb-based dry food with whole grains designed for adult dogs of any size. It uses lamb and lamb meal as the main protein sources, supported by brown rice, barley, and oatmeal for carbohydrates and fiber. The recipe includes added probiotics, salmon oil, flaxseed, and a variety of fruits and vegetables to support digestion, skin and coat, and overall wellness.

KibbleLab Score
8.4 out of 10

This is a well-formulated, moderate-protein dry food centered around lamb and whole grains, suitable for most healthy adult dogs and also labeled for all life stages. The ingredient list shows multiple named animal proteins, a nice mix of digestible grains, and several sources of omega fatty acids and probiotics for gut and skin support. It should work well for dogs who do well on a traditional grain-inclusive diet and don't need a very high-protein formula.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Lamb and lamb meal as the first ingredients provide clearly named, animal-based protein sources.
  • Grain-inclusive with brown rice, barley, and oatmeal, which are generally gentle on the digestive tract and provide fiber and energy.
  • Includes multiple omega-3 sources (salmon oil, ground flaxseed) that can support skin and coat health.
  • Contains added probiotics (Bacillus coagulans), prebiotic chicory root, and pumpkin, which together may support healthy digestion; complete and balanced to AAFCO profiles for all life stages and adult maintenance.

Considerations

  • Contains chickpeas and peas in the top 10 ingredients; for some dogs, especially breeds with heart concerns, it may be wise to discuss legume-heavy formulas with your veterinarian.
  • Includes chicken fat and dried eggs, so it is not an option for dogs with chicken or egg allergies, despite lamb being the primary protein.
  • Protein (22% min) and fat (10% min) are on the moderate side for a dry dog food, which is fine for many adults but may be lower than ideal for very active or working dogs who need more calories from protein and fat.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
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.

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.
03
Brown Rice
Brown rice is a whole-grain carbohydrate and fiber ingredient commonly used in dog and cat foods to provide digestible energy, dietary fiber, and modest amounts of B‑vitamins and minerals; it typically offers more nutrients and fiber than white rice. It’s generally well tolerated and can help with sensitive stomachs, but because it is high in carbohydrates (not a primary protein source) and can contain trace inorganic arsenic depending on sourcing, it should be included in balanced formulations and monitored in overweight or diabetic pets.
04
Barley
Barley is a cereal grain used in pet foods primarily as a digestible carbohydrate and source of dietary fiber (including soluble beta‑glucans), along with modest amounts of B vitamins and minerals. It can support healthy digestion, help moderate post‑meal blood sugar and aid weight management in dogs, but provides limited protein for obligate carnivores like cats, must be cooked/processed for good digestibility, and may be unsuitable for pets with grain sensitivities or calorie‑restricted diets.
05
Oatmeal
Oatmeal is used in pet foods as a digestible carbohydrate and source of soluble fiber (notably beta‑glucans), serving as a gentle filler or binder that can support healthy digestion and steady energy release. It provides B vitamins and minerals, is generally well tolerated by dogs and many cats when cooked and plain, but should be free of added sugars or flavorings and used cautiously for overweight or diabetic pets or animals with individual grain sensitivities.
