Tripett Dry SAP Beef Tripe Formula Dry Dog Food
Verified Jun 11, 2026
A high-protein dry dog food built around green beef tripe and beef as the main animal ingredients, with lentils, chickpeas, and peas supplying most of the carbohydrates. It’s formulated for all life stages, including puppies and pregnant or nursing dogs, and includes added omega fatty acids and probiotics to support digestion and skin and coat health. This suits dogs who do well on grain-free, legume-based diets and enjoy a rich, tripe-forward flavor profile.
This is a protein-focused, grain-free dry food that uses green beef tripe and beef as its primary animal ingredients, with a moderate carbohydrate level for a kibble. The nutrient profile (about 35% protein and 18% fat on a dry-matter basis) is appropriate for most healthy dogs, including growing puppies and active adults, and the added omega fatty acids and probiotics are nice extras. Because it relies heavily on legumes (lentils, chickpeas, peas, pea protein), it’s best chosen thoughtfully, especially for breeds where diet-associated heart disease has been a concern.

KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Beef tripe and beef as leading ingredients provide high-quality, highly palatable animal protein and natural micronutrients.
- Very solid protein and fat levels for an all-life-stages dry food (about 35% protein and 18% fat on a dry-matter basis), suitable for puppies and active dogs when fed appropriately.
- Includes fish oil, flaxseed, and a good omega-6 to omega-3 balance to help support skin and coat health.
- Contains several probiotic strains, which may help support a healthy gut microbiome in some dogs, plus a wide variety of fruits and vegetables as additional nutrient sources.
Considerations
- The formula is grain-free and relies heavily on legumes (lentils, chickpeas, peas, pea protein), which have been associated with diet-related dilated cardiomyopathy in some dogs; this is important to discuss with your vet, especially for at-risk breeds.
- Contains beef and fish, which are common protein allergens; not a good fit for dogs with known sensitivities to these ingredients.
- Calorie density is fairly high (about 363 kcal per cup), so portion control is important to prevent unwanted weight gain, especially in less active dogs.
- All-life-stages foods can be richer than necessary for some adult dogs with low activity; those dogs may need careful portion adjustments to avoid excess calories.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Beef Tripe
Beef tripe (the cow’s stomach lining) is used in pet foods and treats as an animal-based protein source and palatability enhancer, often found in raw, frozen, or minimally processed diets and supplying digestible protein, fats, and some vitamins and minerals. It can also contain natural digestive enzymes and microbes that some claim support gut health, but it is often high in fat and odor, so owners should consider product sourcing and processing, monitor fat-sensitive pets (e.g., those with pancreatitis), and handle or cook it properly to reduce bacterial risk.
02
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.
03
Lentil
Lentils are a plant-based source of protein, complex carbohydrates, fiber and micronutrients (notably folate and iron) commonly used in pet foods to add bulk, promote satiety and help moderate post-meal blood sugar. They can be a useful ingredient for dogs when properly processed and balanced with animal-derived amino acids, but lentil protein is less digestible and incomplete for obligate carnivores like cats; high legume inclusion can also increase gas or digestive upset and has been discussed in the context of diet-associated heart concerns in dogs, so lentils should be used in nutritionally complete, vetted formulations.
04
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
Pea Protein
Pea protein is a concentrated plant-based protein and functional ingredient in pet foods used to raise protein levels, improve texture and contribute soluble fiber, vitamins and minerals. It can be a useful, digestible protein source for dogs and a supplemental protein in some cat formulas, but because it is lower in certain essential amino acids (and cats are obligate carnivores), diets relying heavily on pea protein should be formulated to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles and owners should note potential legume sensitivities and the debated link between high‑pulse, grain‑free diets and canine heart concerns.
