8.0 out of 10

Strong Choice

This is a well-formulated bone broth topper that can be very helpful for dogs who need extra moisture, palatability, or a bit of collagen support on top of their normal diet. The ingredients are simple and straightforward, with turkey bone broth as the base and a few vegetable additions. It’s low in calories and nutrients compared with a full diet, so it works best as a supplement to a balanced dog food rather than a major calorie source.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Simple, limited ingredient list centered around turkey bone broth with carrot, pumpkin, and parsley.
  • Very low calorie, so it can boost hydration and flavor without significantly affecting your dog’s daily calorie intake.
  • Contains added collagen, which may help support joint and connective tissue health when used consistently.
  • Liquid format makes it easy to soften dry food, which can be helpful for picky eaters or dogs with dental issues.

Considerations

  • This is not a complete and balanced diet and should only be used as a topper alongside a regular dog food.
  • Protein and fat levels are very low, so it should not be relied on for key nutrients or calories, especially in growing puppies.
  • Turkey may be a problem for dogs with poultry allergies or sensitivities.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Turkey Bone Broth
Turkey bone broth is commonly used in pet foods and toppers as a palatability and moisture enhancer and provides supplemental collagen, gelatin, amino acids and trace minerals that may support hydration, appetite, joint and digestive health in dogs and cats. It should be offered as a supplement rather than a complete nutrition source, and must be low‑sodium and free of harmful seasonings (no onion, garlic, xylitol), with caution for high‑fat broths, bone fragments, or pets with pancreatitis, sodium‑sensitive conditions, or specific food allergies—consult your veterinarian if unsure.
02
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.

03
Pumpkin
Pumpkin is used in pet foods primarily as a fiber-rich carbohydrate and moisture source that can help regulate digestion and firm up loose stools or add bulk for softer stools, and it provides beta-carotene (vitamin A precursor) plus small amounts of vitamins and minerals for dogs and cats. It is safe and beneficial when plain cooked or canned (not spiced or sweetened pie filling), should be fed in moderation as a supplement rather than a primary food, and introduced gradually since large amounts can cause gastrointestinal upset or interfere with absorption of some medications.
View ingredient
04
Parsley
Parsley is used in pet foods primarily as a natural flavoring and breath‑freshening herb that also contributes small amounts of vitamins (notably vitamin K and vitamin C), folate, antioxidants and some fiber. While safe in culinary amounts for most dogs and cats, concentrated extracts, seeds or large quantities can be harmful (containing compounds such as apiol/myristicin), may affect pregnant animals or interact with anticoagulant medications, and can increase oxalate load in susceptible pets, so its use in formulas is typically minor and controlled.
