Grain Free Adult Chicken With Beef & Vegetables Recipe Wet Dog Food Cuts in Gravy

Verified Jul 22, 2026

Dog · Wet Adult All Breed Sizes

This is a grain-free canned food for adult dogs that uses chicken, beef, and chicken liver as its main animal protein sources in a cuts-in-gravy texture. It provides moderate protein and fat for maintenance, with peas, potatoes, and carrots supplying carbohydrates and fiber. Added fish oil and flaxseed contribute omega fatty acids to support skin, coat, and overall health in dogs who do well on grain-free formulas.

8.3 out of 10

Strong Choice

Overall, this is a well-formulated grain-free wet food for adult dogs, with named meats and organ meat up front and an appropriate nutrient profile for maintenance. It should suit most healthy adult dogs who enjoy a chunky, gravy-style texture and whose owners prefer a grain-free option. As with any grain-free diet that relies on peas and potatoes, it’s something to choose thoughtfully, especially for breeds where heart health is a known concern.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Named animal proteins (chicken, beef, and chicken liver) are the primary ingredients, which supports good-quality, highly digestible protein.
  • Complete and balanced to AAFCO standards for adult maintenance, so it can be fed as a main diet for adult dogs.
  • Includes fish oil and ground flaxseed, which provide omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids important for skin, coat, and general health.
  • Wet, high-moisture format can help support hydration and is often very palatable for picky eaters.

Considerations

  • This is a grain-free recipe that uses peas and potatoes as key carbohydrate sources; legume-heavy grain-free diets have been associated with heart issues (dilated cardiomyopathy) in some dogs, so discuss with your vet if you have a predisposed breed.
  • Contains common protein allergens (chicken, beef, egg), so it is not a good fit for dogs with known sensitivities to those ingredients.
  • Formulated for adult maintenance only and not appropriate as the sole diet for growing puppies or pregnant/lactating dogs.

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.
View ingredient
02
Beef Broth
Beef broth is commonly used in pet foods and toppers as a savory flavoring and moisture enhancer to boost palatability and encourage hydration, and depending on preparation can contribute small amounts of protein, minerals and gelatin-derived collagen. Care should be taken because commercial broths are often high in sodium and may contain added ingredients (onion, garlic, spices, preservatives or sweeteners) that can be harmful to dogs or cats, so choose low-sodium, pet-safe formulations and avoid if your pet has a beef allergy or sodium-sensitive condition.
03
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.
04
Beef
Beef is commonly used in dog and cat foods as a primary animal protein and palatability enhancer, supplying high-quality essential amino acids, B vitamins, iron, and zinc that support muscle maintenance and overall health. Owners should note beef can be calorie- and fat-dense and is a relatively common allergen, and raw or improperly handled beef carries microbial risks, so formulation, fat content, and sourcing/processing are important considerations.
View ingredient
05
Chicken Liver
Chicken liver is a nutrient-dense organ meat commonly used in pet foods and treats as a highly palatable protein source and flavor enhancer, providing concentrated vitamins (especially vitamin A and B-complex), iron, and copper that support energy metabolism, red blood cell formation, and skin/coat health in both dogs and cats. Because it is so rich, liver should be fed in moderation—excessive intake can cause vitamin A toxicity, and its high fat content and risk of bacterial contamination mean it should be properly sourced or cooked and limited for pets with pancreatitis or specific dietary restrictions.
