Strong Choice
This food offers moderate protein with relatively low fat and higher fiber, which can work well for many dogs that do well on a leaner, higher-fiber diet. Chicken meal high in the list helps support adequate amino acids, and the recipe is fully AAFCO-formulated for all life stages, including large-breed growth. Because it is grain-free and relies heavily on peas, chickpeas, and fava beans, it’s important to consider current research around legume-heavy diets and heart health when deciding if this is right for your dog.

Strengths
- Chicken and chicken meal provide named animal protein sources to support muscle maintenance and growth.
- Complete and balanced per AAFCO for all life stages, including large-breed puppies, which is a stricter standard.
- Added fish oil and flaxseeds contribute omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids for skin, coat, and overall health.
- Includes fruits, vegetables, and added vitamins and minerals for antioxidant support and overall micronutrition.
Considerations
- This is a grain-free formula that relies heavily on peas, chickpeas, and fava beans, which have been linked in some studies to heart issues in certain dogs.
- Chicken is a common food allergen for dogs, so this recipe would not suit dogs with chicken sensitivities.
- The fat level is on the leaner side, which may not be ideal for very active or working dogs that need higher calorie density.
- Formulated by AAFCO standards but not reported as tested in feeding trials, so digestibility has not been verified through trials.

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
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.

05
Faba Bean
Faba beans (fava beans) are a legume used in pet foods as a plant-based source of protein, fiber and complex carbohydrates, often added to boost protein content and calorie balance while lowering reliance on animal ingredients. They can provide digestible energy and fiber but have a limited amino acid profile for obligate carnivores, may require processing to reduce antinutrients and lectins, can cause gastrointestinal upset or flatulence in some pets, and — as with other pulses — are used cautiously in grain‑free diets because of unsettled links to canine heart concerns.
