8.9 out of 10

Strong Choice

This is a nutrient-dense dry food geared toward large breed puppies who do well on poultry-based diets with wholesome grains. It offers high protein from a variety of animal sources and avoids peas, lentils, and potatoes. The added DHA, joint-support nutrients, and probiotics make it a thoughtful option for growing puppies, especially larger breeds that need careful support during growth.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Very high protein level at 36%, with most of it coming from animal sources like chicken, turkey, and other poultry meats.
  • Uses barley and oatmeal instead of peas, lentils, or potatoes, which avoids the legume-heavy pattern linked with some heart concerns.
  • Includes DHA from salmon oil plus omega-3 and omega-6 fats, which helps support brain, eye, skin, and coat health in growing puppies.
  • Provides glucosamine, chondroitin, taurine, L-carnitine, and probiotics, which together support joints, heart function, and digestive health in puppies.

Considerations

  • Contains multiple poultry proteins, so it would not be a good choice for puppies with chicken or turkey allergies.
  • The calorie density is fairly high, so large breed puppies especially need careful portion control to avoid overly rapid growth.
  • The long list of different animal proteins makes it less ideal as an elimination diet if you are trying to sort out food sensitivities.

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.

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.

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.
View ingredient
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.
