Top Pick
This freeze-dried raw formula is designed for adult dogs and focuses on very high animal-protein content with organ meat and ground bone to provide a nutrient-dense diet. It suits dogs who do well on rich, meat-heavy foods and whose owners prefer a raw-style product without handling fresh raw meat. Because it is very calorie-dense and high in fat, careful portion control is important, especially for less active or overweight-prone dogs.

Strengths
- Animal proteins from duck, turkey, goose, and organs make up 95% of the recipe, giving very high-quality protein and amino acids.
- Freeze-dried raw processing helps preserve nutrients while offering the convenience of a dry, shelf-stable product.
- Added probiotics, taurine, and organic fruits and vegetables provide extra digestive and antioxidant support.
- Formulated as a 100% complete and balanced dinner, so it can be fed as the main diet rather than just a supplement.
Considerations
- At 38% fat and 5,370 kcal per kg, this food is very rich, so portions need to be small and measured carefully.
- The high fat level may not be ideal for dogs with a history of pancreatitis or those needing a lower-fat diet.
- Multiple poultry sources mean it will not suit dogs with chicken, turkey, or other poultry allergies.
- Raw-style diets may not be the best choice for households with severely immune-compromised people or pets without careful handling.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Duck With Ground Bone
Duck with ground bone is used primarily as a palatable animal protein source in pet foods, with the ground bone providing bioavailable calcium and phosphorus and contributing to texture and caloric density. It can be a useful novel protein for dogs and cats, but formulators must balance mineral ratios and fat content—excess bone can disrupt calcium:phosphorus balance (important for growing animals and pets with renal disease) and owners should choose products from reputable manufacturers to ensure safe processing and minimize contamination risk.
02
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.

03
Turkey Liver
Turkey liver is an organ meat commonly used in dog and cat foods as a protein-rich, palatability-enhancing ingredient and a concentrated source of vitamins and minerals—particularly vitamin A, B vitamins (including B12), iron, and copper. It offers nutritional benefits for metabolism and skin/coat health but should be included in moderation within a balanced diet to avoid vitamin A excess and high purine intake, and must be properly handled or cooked to reduce foodborne risks.
04
Turkey Heart
Turkey heart is an organ meat commonly used in pet foods as a high-quality protein and palatability ingredient that also provides essential amino acids (including taurine), B vitamins, iron, zinc and other trace minerals. It can be especially beneficial for cats because of its taurine content and for dogs as a nutrient-dense protein source, but should be included in balanced amounts (not as the sole diet component) and handled/processed properly to avoid pathogens or intolerance in sensitive pets.
05
Poultry
Poultry is commonly used as a primary animal protein source in dog and cat foods, providing highly digestible essential amino acids, fats for energy, and nutrients like B vitamins, iron, and zinc while improving palatability. Pet owners should be aware that poultry can be a food allergen for some animals and that product quality (whole-muscle vs by‑products), fat level, and proper processing/cooking are important to minimize risks from pathogens or excess fat, especially in pets with pancreatitis or food sensitivities.
