Adult Sensitive Stomach & Skin Tender Chicken & Vegetable Stew Wet Dog Food
Verified Aug 21, 2026
This is a wet stew-style food for adult dogs that uses chicken and pork liver as the main animal protein sources, with carrots, rice, and peas as added carbohydrates and fiber. It has a moderate protein and fat level for a canned diet and includes flaxseed and soybean oil to supply omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, along with added vitamins C and E. The recipe is designed for everyday maintenance in adult dogs, particularly those who may benefit from a more easily digested formula with skin and coat support.

Top Pick
Nutritionally, this is a well-balanced canned food for adult dogs, with a good mix of animal proteins, digestible carbohydrates, and moderate fat. I especially like that it’s been proven in AAFCO feeding trials rather than just formulated on paper, and that it includes omega fatty acids and antioxidants for overall wellness. It’s a solid choice for many adult dogs, including those that do better on a moist, easy-to-chew diet and may have milder stomach or skin sensitivities, as long as they tolerate chicken, turkey, and soy.

Strengths
- Uses named animal proteins (chicken, pork liver, turkey) high in the ingredient list, providing good-quality, highly digestible protein.
- AAFCO-verified complete and balanced for adult maintenance via feeding trials, which gives extra confidence in nutrient adequacy and digestibility.
- Includes omega-3 and omega-6 sources (flaxseed, soybean oil) along with added vitamins C and E, supporting skin, coat, and immune function.
- Moderate dry-matter protein (about 29%) and fat (about 19%) are appropriate for many adult dogs, including those who don’t need an ultra-rich diet.
Considerations
- Contains chicken, turkey, pork liver, and soy, which are common triggers for food-allergic dogs; not a good match if your dog has known sensitivities to these ingredients.
- Carbohydrates make up a substantial portion of the dry-matter calories (about 45%), which is fine for most dogs but may be higher than ideal for very high-performance or working dogs that need more concentrated fat and protein.
- This is formulated for adult maintenance only, so it would not be appropriate as the sole diet for puppies or pregnant/nursing dogs.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Chicken Broth
Chicken broth is commonly used in pet foods and toppers as a flavorful liquid base or gravy to improve palatability and add moisture, providing modest amounts of soluble protein, electrolytes and minerals. It can help encourage eating and increase hydration, but owners should choose low‑sodium, onion‑ and garlic‑free formulations (or make homemade broth), since commercial broths may contain excessive salt, seasonings or additives that are unsafe or unsuitable for dogs and cats.
02
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.

03
Pork Liver
Pork liver is an organ meat used in pet foods as a nutrient‑dense source of high‑quality protein and concentrated vitamins and minerals—notably vitamin A, B vitamins (including B12 and folate), iron and copper—that support red blood cell production, skin/coat condition and overall metabolism. Because liver is very rich in vitamin A and certain minerals, it should be included in limited amounts to avoid hypervitaminosis A or mineral imbalances and must be properly processed to reduce pathogen risk; pets with urinary stone issues or a pork sensitivity should use caution.
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.

05
Rice
Rice is a common carbohydrate source and binder in dog and cat foods, supplying readily digestible energy and often used in formulations for sensitive stomachs or hypoallergenic diets. White rice is gentle and easy to digest while brown rice provides more fiber and micronutrients, but rice is low in essential amino acids, has a relatively high glycemic index, and can accumulate trace arsenic, so it should not be relied on as a primary protein and portions should be considered for diabetic or weight‑management pets.
