JustFresh Boost Sensitive Skin Meal Topper

Dog · Topper Adult All Breed Sizes

This gently cooked chicken-based topper is designed to be mixed with your dog’s regular food to support skin and coat health. It features chicken with quinoa, oats, vegetables, flaxseed, and marine microalgae oil as sources of omega-3 fatty acids. It works well as a flavorful add-on or treat for adult dogs of any breed size, but not as a complete diet on its own.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Uses real chicken as the main animal ingredient, which is a highly palatable protein source for most dogs.
  • Includes flaxseed and marine microalgae oil, which provide omega-3 fatty acids that support skin and coat health.
  • Contains vegetables and grains like carrots, green beans, quinoa, and oats for extra fiber and nutrients.
  • Calorie content is clearly stated, which makes it easier to fit into your dog’s daily calorie needs.

Considerations

  • This topper is not complete and balanced, so it should not replace your dog’s regular nutritionally balanced food.
  • Chicken is a common food allergen, so this would not be a good choice for dogs with known chicken sensitivities.
  • Fat and calories still add up, so portions should be controlled for dogs prone to weight gain.

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
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
Quinoa
Quinoa is used in pet foods as a cooked pseudo‑grain providing digestible carbohydrates, fiber and a relatively high‑quality plant protein with a broad amino acid profile. It supplies B vitamins and minerals (e.g., iron, magnesium) and can be a useful energy and fiber source for dogs, but should be cooked and rinsed to remove bitter saponins, offered in moderation due to calorie density and potential digestive upset, and it should not replace essential animal‑derived nutrients (such as taurine) required by cats.
View ingredient
04
Carrot
Carrot is used in pet foods as a vegetable ingredient providing fiber, moisture, texture and antioxidant nutrients such as beta‑carotene (a provitamin A), vitamin K, vitamin C and potassium, contributing to palatability and digestive bulk. Cooked carrots are more digestible and release more beta‑carotene, but cats cannot efficiently convert beta‑carotene to active vitamin A so carrots are more nutritionally useful for dogs than as a primary vitamin A source for cats; they should be fed in moderation due to natural sugars and should be offered in appropriately sized pieces to avoid choking.
View ingredient
05
Green Bean
Green beans are a low-calorie vegetable commonly used in pet foods and treats as a source of soluble and insoluble fiber, moisture, and modest amounts of vitamins and minerals (such as vitamins A and K, folate, and potassium), helping support digestive health and weight management. They are not a primary protein source and provide limited nutrition for obligate carnivores like cats, so feed in moderation and use plain, cooked or fresh beans without added salt, seasonings, or sauces to avoid gastrointestinal upset or excess sodium.
