Beef, Chicken Meal & Lentil Recipe Dry Dog Food

Verified Jun 15, 2026

Dog · Dry Puppy Adult Senior All Breed Sizes

This is a grain-free dry dog food designed for all life stages, including large-breed puppies, with beef and chicken meal as the main animal protein sources. Peas, chickpeas, lentils, and other legumes supply most of the carbohydrates and fiber, while added fish oil, flaxseed, and seaweed contribute omega fatty acids and trace nutrients. It’s a moderate-protein, moderate-fat formula aimed at supporting digestion and overall health for dogs of any size, from 4 weeks of age through adulthood and s

KibbleLab Score
7.6 out of 10

Nutritionally, this is a solid, all-life-stages grain-free kibble with adequate protein and fat levels and clear AAFCO compliance, including for large-breed growth. It relies heavily on legumes (peas, chickpeas, lentils, fava beans) for carbohydrates and some plant protein, with beef, beef meal, and chicken meal providing the animal protein component and added omega-3 and omega-6 sources for skin and coat support. It can work well for many healthy dogs, but the grain-free, legume-forward profile means it’s best used with some caution in breeds where diet-associated heart disease has been a concern.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Complete and balanced for all life stages, including large-breed puppies, which is a stricter nutritional standard.
  • Multiple animal protein sources (beef, beef meal, chicken meal, fish oil) plus supplemental taurine to support a full amino acid profile.
  • Good omega-3 and omega-6 levels from chicken fat, flaxseed, and fish oil, which support skin, coat, and general health.
  • Includes several fiber and prebiotic-type ingredients (dried beet pulp, chicory root, legumes, seaweed) that can support gut health in many dogs.

Considerations

  • Carbohydrates and a portion of the protein come mainly from peas, chickpeas, lentils, and fava beans; legume-heavy, grain-free diets have been associated with heart issues (DCM) in some dogs, so this pattern warrants caution, especially in at-risk breeds.
  • Contains common animal allergens such as beef, chicken, and fish, so it is not a good fit for dogs with known sensitivities to these proteins.
  • Crude protein at 26% and fat at 10% are adequate but on the moderate side compared with many all-life-stages foods; very high-energy or working dogs may need a richer formula.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Beef
Beef is commonly used in dog and cat foods as a primary animal protein and palatability enhancer, supplying high-quality essential amino acids, B vitamins, iron, and zinc that support muscle maintenance and overall health. Owners should note beef can be calorie- and fat-dense and is a relatively common allergen, and raw or improperly handled beef carries microbial risks, so formulation, fat content, and sourcing/processing are important considerations.
02
Pea
Pea is a plant-based ingredient used in pet foods as a source of protein, soluble and insoluble fiber, and micronutrients (often included as whole peas, pea flour, or pea protein concentrate) to boost protein content and improve texture. While peas can provide digestible carbohydrates, fiber, and some plant protein useful especially for dogs, they are not a complete protein for obligate carnivores like cats and — when overused, particularly in concentrated forms or as a major component of grain‑free diets — have been scrutinized for a possible association with canine dilated cardiomyopathy and can contribute to nutrient imbalances or excess calories, so balanced formulation and compliance with AAFCO nutritional profiles are important.
03
Chickpea
Chickpeas are a legume commonly used in pet foods as a plant-based protein, source of digestible carbohydrates, and supply of soluble and insoluble fiber that helps with stool quality and satiety. They can be a useful ingredient for dogs but are not a complete protein for obligate carnivores like cats and may cause gas or digestive upset if underprocessed; additionally, high inclusion of legumes in some grain‑free diets has been discussed as a potential factor in canine dilated cardiomyopathy so diets should be balanced and any concerns discussed with your veterinarian.
04
Beef
Beef is commonly used in dog and cat foods as a primary animal protein and palatability enhancer, supplying high-quality essential amino acids, B vitamins, iron, and zinc that support muscle maintenance and overall health. Owners should note beef can be calorie- and fat-dense and is a relatively common allergen, and raw or improperly handled beef carries microbial risks, so formulation, fat content, and sourcing/processing are important considerations.
05
Pea Starch
Pea starch is used in pet foods primarily as a carbohydrate binder, thickener and texture agent to help form kibble and provide readily digestible energy, rather than as a protein or fiber source. It is a gluten‑free, highly digestible starch that can increase calorie density and glycemic load (important for overweight or diabetic pets) and, like other pea/legume ingredients used in high amounts in some grain‑free diets, should be part of a balanced formulation chosen with veterinary guidance for pets with special health concerns.
