Tripett Original Formula Green Beef Tripe Supplement

Verified May 23, 2026

Dog · Supplement All Life Stages All Breed Sizes

This is a canned green beef tripe supplement for dogs, made from nearly 100% green beef tripe with a simple, short ingredient list. It provides very high protein and fat on a dry-matter basis, plus natural omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, and is meant to be mixed with a complete diet rather than fed alone. The smooth pate texture makes it easy to blend with dry or raw food, especially for dogs who enjoy strong, meaty flavors or need extra palatability.

KibbleLab Score
8.2 out of 10

Nutritionally, this is a rich tripe-based topper or supplement, not a complete and balanced food, so it should always be added to a regular diet that meets AAFCO standards. It offers very high protein and fat with moderate phosphorus and calcium levels, which can be useful for dogs who need more calories or palatability. The very short ingredient list is helpful for many dogs with sensitive stomachs, as long as they tolerate beef well.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Extremely simple formula with green beef tripe as the primary ingredient and only water and guar gum added, which can be easier on sensitive stomachs than complex recipes.
  • High protein (about 55% on a dry-matter basis) and fat (about 35% dry-matter) provide concentrated nutrition and good palatability when used as a topper.
  • Includes naturally occurring omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which support skin, coat, and overall health when combined with a balanced base diet.
  • Clear statement that it is for intermittent or supplemental feeding only, helping owners use it appropriately alongside a complete food.

Considerations

  • This is not a complete and balanced diet and is labeled for intermittent or supplemental feeding only, so it must be fed together with a full, AAFCO-compliant dog food.
  • Beef is a common food allergen for dogs, so this product is not a good choice for dogs with known or suspected beef sensitivities.
  • The high fat content may be too rich for some dogs prone to pancreatitis or needing a lower-fat diet; portions should be modest and introduced gradually.
  • As a very high-calorie supplement (about 455 kcal per can), it can easily add extra calories, so amounts should be adjusted to prevent unwanted weight gain.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Beef Green Tripe
Beef green tripe is the unprocessed lining of a cow’s stomach commonly included in pet foods and raw diets as a palatable source of protein, fat and moisture that can improve digestibility and appetite. In dogs and cats it may provide enzymes, beneficial microbes, fatty acids and trace minerals, but its nutrient profile is variable, it is often odorous and relatively high in fat, and raw tripe can carry foodborne pathogens—so handle carefully and consult your veterinarian to ensure it fits a balanced diet.
02
Water
Water is an essential nutrient and the primary solvent and moisture component in pet foods, especially wet and canned diets, and is also used in processing and to adjust texture and palatability. It is vital for digestion, nutrient transport, temperature regulation and waste removal in dogs and cats; pets must have constant access to clean water as dehydration can quickly lead to serious health issues and requirements increase with activity, heat, or illness, while moisture in wet food can help meet part of their daily needs.
03
Guar Gum
Guar gum is a soluble plant-derived fiber commonly used in pet foods as a thickener, stabilizer and emulsifier to improve texture, moisture retention and prevent separation in wet foods, gravies and coatings. It provides little nutritional value beyond soluble fiber—which can help stool consistency and modestly slow digestion—but excessive amounts may cause gastrointestinal upset or affect nutrient absorption, so it is used at controlled low levels and is generally considered safe for most dogs and cats.
