Field Master Champion 32/21 Dry Puppy Food

Verified Jun 20, 2026

Dog · Dry Puppy All Breed Sizes

This is a high-protein, high-fat dry puppy food formulated for active, growing dogs. It uses chicken and chicken meal as the primary protein sources, with menhaden fish meal, dried eggs, and added DHA to support brain and vision development. The recipe includes barley, oat groats, and peas for carbohydrates, added joint-support ingredients, omega fatty acids for skin and coat, and probiotics to support digestion.

KibbleLab Score
8.4 out of 10

Overall, this is a nutrient-dense, performance-style puppy formula that should suit most healthy, active puppies very well. It provides robust protein and fat levels, multiple animal protein sources, and several thoughtful additions like DHA, joint-support ingredients, and probiotics. It may be a bit rich for very small or lower-activity puppies, and it won’t be a match for dogs with chicken, egg, or fish allergies.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • High protein (32%) and fat (21%) levels are appropriate for active, growing puppies and support healthy muscle and energy needs.
  • Multiple high-quality animal protein sources, including chicken, chicken meal, menhaden fish meal, and dried eggs, help provide a strong amino acid profile.
  • Includes omega-3 and omega-6 sources (fish meal, flaxseed, sunflower oil) and DHA, which are important for skin, coat, and neurologic development in puppies.
  • Contains glucosamine and chondroitin from chicken meal for joint support, plus a blend of probiotics and chicory root to help support digestive health and stool quality.

Considerations

  • Chicken, eggs, and fish are all present, so this food is not suitable for puppies with known allergies to any of those proteins.
  • The relatively high calorie density (about 397 kcal per cup) and 21% fat mean portions need to be measured carefully, especially for less active puppies, to avoid unwanted weight gain.
  • Peas appear in the ingredient list, which some owners may wish to moderate exposure to, particularly in breeds where heart disease is a concern, although this is not a grain-free, legume-heavy formula.

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.

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
Menhaden Fish
Menhaden fish is used in pet foods primarily as a high-quality animal protein and as a concentrated source of fish oil rich in omega‑3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA), which support healthy skin and coat, joint mobility, and anti‑inflammatory benefits for dogs and cats. It enhances palatability and provides essential micronutrients like iodine and selenium, but owners should be aware of possible fish allergies, caloric density and oil oxidation, and prefer products from reputable, sustainably sourced suppliers to reduce contamination risks.
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
Oat Groat
Oat groats are the whole, minimally processed oat kernels (hull removed) used in pet foods as a source of complex carbohydrates, soluble fiber (including beneficial beta‑glucans), and modest amounts of protein, B vitamins, and minerals. They provide digestible energy and can support gastrointestinal health and weight management when cooked or processed for improved digestibility, but should be used in moderation—especially in cat diets and in pets with grain sensitivities or carbohydrate‑restricted conditions such as diabetes.
