Where these benefits come from
Benefits the manufacturer highlights in its own product marketing. KibbleLab lists them for reference and does not verify these claims.KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Uses wild-caught catfish, clams, and sardines as primary protein sources, which are naturally rich in omega-3 fatty acids.
- Air-dried jerky format gives a relatively high-protein, moderate-fat treat compared with many biscuit-style treats.
- Includes inulin and miscanthus grass, which can act as prebiotic fibers to support a healthy gut microbiome.
- Contains mixed tocopherols and rosemary extract as natural preservatives instead of artificial colors or flavors.
Considerations
- This is not a complete and balanced food, so it should stay within the recommended treat portion of no more than 10% of daily calories.
- Fish and shellfish are common allergens for some dogs, so it may not suit pets with known seafood sensitivities.
- At about 14 calories per piece, portions should be monitored carefully for dogs prone to weight gain, especially small breeds.
- The added fiber sources may cause soft stools or gas in some dogs, particularly if introduced suddenly or fed in large amounts.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Catfish
Catfish is used in pet foods as a digestible animal protein and source of omega‑3 fatty acids, supporting muscle maintenance and skin/coat health in both dogs and cats. It can enhance palatability and provide lean protein but may trigger fish allergies in some animals or present contaminant risks depending on source (e.g., mercury or PCBs), and cat diets should still be formulated or supplemented to ensure adequate taurine and complete nutrition.

02
Clam
Clam is used in pet foods as a novel, animal-based protein and flavor ingredient that supplies high-quality protein, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin B12 and minerals like iron and zinc, and can enhance palatability for both dogs and cats. It can be a nutritious, low‑fat protein source, but owners should watch for potential shellfish allergies, ensure products are properly processed to avoid pathogens and biotoxins, and note that some processed clam ingredients may have elevated sodium or trace contaminants.

03
Sardine
Sardine serves as a rich animal protein and palatability enhancer in pet food, supplying highly digestible protein, abundant omega‑3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA), B vitamins and vitamin D, and when included whole can provide calcium and phosphorus. They can benefit both dogs and cats by supporting skin and coat, joint and cardiac health, but owners should watch for high sodium in some canned products, potential fish allergies or digestive upset in sensitive animals, and choose sustainably sourced, low‑sodium options to minimize contaminant exposure.

04
Coconut Glycerin
Coconut glycerin is a plant-derived glycerol used in pet foods as a humectant and mild sweetening/texture agent to retain moisture, improve mouthfeel and palatability, and serve as a solvent or mild preservative in soft treats, toppers, and wet formulas. It provides easily metabolized calories and is generally safe for dogs and cats in small amounts, but high levels can cause gastrointestinal upset or laxative effects, so manufacturers should ensure purity, account for added calories, and note that it is not the dog-toxic sweetener xylitol.
05
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.
