Strong Choice

This wet food is designed for adult dogs of any size who do well on a chicken-based, grain-free diet and enjoy a chunky, gravy-style texture. It provides moderate protein and fat with plenty of moisture, which can help keep dogs hydrated and can be easier to eat for dogs who prefer wet foods. It may work well as a sole diet or as a topper for dry food, as long as total calories are taken into account.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Chicken and chicken liver provide animal-based protein and important nutrients like iron and B vitamins.
  • High moisture content can help with hydration and is often appealing to dogs that like softer foods.
  • Grain-free formula may suit dogs that truly need to avoid grains, while using vegetables as the main carbs.
  • Includes added vitamins and minerals to help support a complete and balanced daily diet when fed as directed.

Considerations

  • Chicken is the primary protein, so this food is not a good choice for dogs with chicken allergies or sensitivities.
  • This is a grain-free recipe that includes peas, so for breeds at higher risk of heart disease, you may want to discuss diet choices with your vet.
  • The protein level is moderate for a wet food, so very high-energy or working dogs might need more calorie-dense options.

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
Tomato
Tomato is commonly used in pet foods as a source of fiber, natural color/flavor and antioxidants (notably lycopene) and appears in forms like tomato pomace or dried tomato meal rather than as a primary protein. While ripe tomato components can provide vitamins and antioxidant benefits, they are not nutritionally essential for dogs or cats and green stems/leaves (and unripe fruit) contain solanine/tomatine that can be toxic; acidic or heavily seasoned tomato products may also cause stomach upset or contain added salt/sugar to avoid.
View ingredient
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
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.
05
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.
