K95 Duck Wet Dog Food
Verified Jun 16, 2026
This is a duck-based canned pâté designed for adult dogs, using duck and liver as the primary animal protein sources. It’s grain-free and relies on sweet potatoes, carrots, peas, and apples for carbohydrates and fiber, with added vitamins and minerals to make it a complete and balanced meal or a flavorful topper over dry food.
This is a high-quality wet food for adult dogs that leans on duck and organ meat for its protein, with a simple, meat-forward ingredient list. The grain-free recipe uses vegetables and fruits for carbohydrates and includes added vitamins and minerals to meet adult maintenance needs. It should suit many healthy adult dogs, either as a full diet or as a topper to boost palatability and moisture intake.

KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Duck and liver appear at the top of the ingredient list, providing good-quality animal protein and nutrient-rich organ meat.
- Grain-free formula that uses sweet potatoes, carrots, peas, and apples as carbohydrate and fiber sources, which can be helpful for dogs that don’t do well on certain grains.
- Complete and balanced to AAFCO standards for adult maintenance, so it can be fed as a sole diet if desired.
- Moderate calorie density for a canned food (about 330 kcal per 13 oz can), which can help with portion control for average-energy adult dogs.
Considerations
- Contains duck and egg, which are potential allergens for some dogs; not ideal if your dog has known sensitivities to these proteins.
- Formulated only for adult maintenance, so it’s not appropriate for growing puppies or pregnant/lactating dogs.
- As a grain-free diet with peas included, it’s worth discussing with your veterinarian if your dog is a breed with known heart disease risks or is already on another legume-heavy diet.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Duck
Duck is used in pet food primarily as a flavorful animal protein and fat source, commonly included in limited-ingredient or novel-protein formulas for dogs and cats. It supplies high-quality amino acids and energy and can help pets with sensitivities to common proteins, but it is relatively rich in fat (so may be unsuitable for low‑fat or pancreatitis-prone animals), can still trigger allergies in some pets, and requires proper cooking/processing and handling to avoid bacterial contamination.
02
Duck Broth
Duck broth is used in pet food primarily as a flavorful liquid to boost palatability and moisture, and it can contribute modest amounts of amino acids and minerals depending on how it’s made. It can help entice picky dogs and cats and encourage hydration, but caregivers should check labels for high sodium, added onions/garlic or excessive fat, and avoid broths with bone fragments or if the animal has a poultry allergy or pancreatitis risk.
03
Liver
Liver is a nutrient-dense organ meat used in pet foods as a high-quality protein source, natural flavor enhancer, and a concentrated supply of vitamins and minerals—particularly vitamin A, B vitamins (including B12 and folate), iron and copper. It offers important micronutrients for both dogs and cats but should be fed in controlled amounts because excessive liver can cause vitamin A (and sometimes copper) toxicity, and raw liver carries food-safety risks unless properly processed.
04
Sweet Potato
Sweet potato is used in pet foods as a digestible carbohydrate and source of soluble fiber, vitamins (notably beta‑carotene), minerals and antioxidants, often helping with stool quality and serving as a binder or energy ingredient. It is generally well tolerated by dogs and can support gut health, but because cats poorly convert beta‑carotene to vitamin A and require preformed vitamin A from animal sources, sweet potato is not a substitute for meat-based nutrients; its relatively high carbohydrate content also means portion control is advised for overweight or diabetic pets and it should be cooked for best digestibility.
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.
