Lamb Green Tripe Freeze-Dried Booster Supplement

Verified Jun 20, 2026

Dog · Supplement All Life Stages All Breed Sizes

This is a freeze-dried lamb green tripe supplement designed to be added to your dog’s regular complete diet, not used as a stand-alone food. With lamb green tripe as the sole ingredient, it provides a very high-protein, high-fat boost and can help increase the palatability of meals for picky eaters. It’s suitable for dogs of all ages when used in sensible amounts alongside a balanced diet.

KibbleLab Score
8.4 out of 10

Nutritionally, this is a very simple, high-quality topper made from a single ingredient: lamb green tripe. It delivers concentrated protein and fat, making it most appropriate as a flavor and nutrient boost on top of a complete and balanced food. It can work well for dogs who need extra encouragement to eat or who do best on limited-ingredient additions, as long as owners keep portions modest to avoid excess calories.

The KibbleLab Score (1–10) is assessed from publicly available product data. Our evaluation is science-based, not marketing-based.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Single-ingredient formula (lamb green tripe) is helpful for dogs needing limited-ingredient toppers or with more complex food sensitivities.
  • Very high protein (60% minimum) with moderate fat (18% minimum) for a rich, animal-based nutrient boost.
  • Freeze-dried processing helps preserve nutrients and makes it easy to store and serve.
  • Clear statement that it is for intermittent or supplemental feeding only, which helps avoid misuse as a complete diet.

Considerations

  • Not a complete and balanced food, so it must always be fed alongside a fully balanced diet rather than as the main meal.
  • High calorie density (about 125 kcal per cup) means portions should be controlled, especially for dogs prone to weight gain or pancreatitis.
  • Contains lamb, which can be a trigger for dogs with lamb-specific food allergies.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Lamb Green Tripe
Lamb green tripe is the unprocessed stomach lining of lambs used in pet food as a highly palatable protein and fat source and flavor enhancer, commonly included in raw and wet diets for dogs and cats and valued for natural enzymes, beneficial microbes, and trace nutrients that can support digestion and appetite. It may aid gut health and food acceptance but has a strong odor and potential bacterial load, so buy from reputable sources, handle or process for safety, feed as part of a balanced diet, and use caution with animals prone to pancreatitis or in households with immunocompromised people.
