8.3 out of 10

Strong Choice

This is a well-formulated, grain-free dry food with moderate protein and fat levels that is suitable for most healthy dogs, including large-breed puppies. I like the mix of animal proteins, reasonable fiber, and added omega fatty acids and probiotics. The main nutritional caution is that it’s a grain-free, legume-containing formula, so I’d be cautious using it as the only long-term diet in breeds with heart concerns related to grain-free foods.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Turkey and turkey meal lead the ingredient list, giving a good animal-protein base.
  • AAFCO-complete for all life stages, including large-breed puppies, which is harder to formulate correctly.
  • Includes menhaden fish meal and flaxseed for omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids to support skin and coat.
  • Contains multiple probiotic strains plus chicory root and beet pulp to support digestive health.

Considerations

  • Grain-free and uses peas and garbanzo beans; legume-heavy diets have been linked to heart issues in some dogs.
  • Contains both turkey and chicken, so it’s not a good fit if your dog needs a single-protein or poultry-free diet.
  • 25% protein is adequate but a bit lower than many other grain-free options if you’re seeking a very high-protein diet.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
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.

03
Tapioca Starch
Tapioca starch is a purified carbohydrate used in pet foods mainly as a thickener, binder and easily digestible energy source, contributing virtually no protein, fat, vitamins or minerals. It is low‑allergy and gluten‑free, but because it is a high‑glycemic, low‑nutrient filler it should be limited in diets for overweight or diabetic pets and not relied on for essential nutrition.
04
Sweet Potato
Sweet potato is used in pet foods as a digestible carbohydrate and source of soluble fiber, vitamins (notably beta‑carotene), minerals and antioxidants, often helping with stool quality and serving as a binder or energy ingredient. It is generally well tolerated by dogs and can support gut health, but because cats poorly convert beta‑carotene to vitamin A and require preformed vitamin A from animal sources, sweet potato is not a substitute for meat-based nutrients; its relatively high carbohydrate content also means portion control is advised for overweight or diabetic pets and it should be cooked for best digestibility.
View ingredient
05
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.
