Strong Choice
This is a very meat-rich, freeze-dried raw option designed as a complete and balanced diet for adult dogs. The first several ingredients are turkey meat, organs, and bone, which provide highly digestible protein and naturally occurring minerals. It’s best suited for healthy adult dogs whose owners prefer a raw-style, minimally processed diet and are comfortable managing a high-calorie, high-fat food.

Strengths
- Turkey meat, organs, and bone make up 95% of the recipe, giving very high animal protein content.
- Freeze-dried processing helps preserve nutrients while making it safer and more convenient than fresh raw diets.
- Includes added taurine plus probiotics and antioxidant-rich fruits and veggies for overall nutritional support.
- Formulated as a 100% complete and balanced diet, so it can be fed as the main food for adult dogs.
Considerations
- Turkey is a common protein trigger for some food-allergic dogs, so it won’t suit dogs with turkey sensitivities.
- At 40% protein and 36% fat as fed, this is a very calorie-dense food and may not be ideal for dogs needing strict weight control.
- Raw-style diets may not be appropriate for dogs with certain medical conditions or for households needing extra caution around raw products.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Turkey with Ground Bone
Turkey with ground bone is used in pet food as a combined animal protein and mineral source, providing meat-based essential amino acids along with concentrated calcium and phosphorus from the bone. It can be a nutritious choice for dogs and cats when properly balanced, but high bone content raises ash and mineral levels so formulations must be monitored to avoid calcium/phosphorus imbalances or digestive issues, and sourcing/processing should control microbial risk and allergen considerations.
02
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.
03
Turkey Gizzard
Turkey gizzard is a nutrient-dense organ muscle commonly used in pet foods and treats as a high-quality animal protein source that adds meaty flavor and firm texture. It supplies protein, B vitamins (notably B12 and niacin), iron and other trace minerals and some taurine beneficial for dogs and cats, but should be properly processed/cooked to avoid pathogens and fed as part of a balanced diet since organ-rich ingredients can concentrate certain nutrients and may need moderation for pets with specific health conditions.
04
Pumpkin Seed
Pumpkin seed is used in pet foods and supplements as a source of fiber, plant protein, healthy fats and micronutrients (such as magnesium, zinc and iron), plus antioxidants that can support digestion, skin/coat condition and overall nutrient balance in dogs and cats. They contain cucurbitin, a compound traditionally associated with parasite control and can help firm stools and support urinary/prostate health, but are calorie‑dense and may cause gastrointestinal upset or contribute to pancreatitis in susceptible pets, so seeds should be unsalted, properly processed, and never substituted for veterinary diagnosis or treatment.
05
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.
