KibbleLab does not assign it a general wellness score, because a therapeutic diet's nutrient targets are set clinically, not by maintenance standards. Your veterinarian selects the right therapeutic diet for your pet.

Strengths
- Formulated and tested via AAFCO feeding trials for maintenance of adult dogs, which gives extra confidence in its real-world nutritional performance.
- Mineral levels (calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium) are controlled and appropriate for a urinary-support diet, helping manage the risk of certain stone types when used as directed by a vet.
- Uses multiple animal protein sources (beef by-products, chicken, pork liver) that provide essential amino acids and important nutrients like taurine.
- Includes omega-3 fatty acids, L-carnitine, and antioxidants such as vitamin E and beta-carotene, which support overall health as part of the complete formula.
Considerations
- This is a prescription therapeutic diet and should only be used under veterinary supervision, especially if your dog has other health conditions.
- Contains common allergen sources including beef, chicken, soy, and fish, so it’s not ideal for dogs with known sensitivities to these ingredients.
- The formula is designed for adult maintenance and is not appropriate for growing puppies or pregnant/lactating dogs.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Water
Water is an essential nutrient and the primary solvent and moisture component in pet foods, especially wet and canned diets, and is also used in processing and to adjust texture and palatability. It is vital for digestion, nutrient transport, temperature regulation and waste removal in dogs and cats; pets must have constant access to clean water as dehydration can quickly lead to serious health issues and requirements increase with activity, heat, or illness, while moisture in wet food can help meet part of their daily needs.
02
Beef By-Product
Beef by-product is used as a concentrated protein and nutrient source in pet foods and typically includes organ meats, trimmings, and other edible parts aside from skeletal muscle, supplying protein, B vitamins (including B12), vitamin A, iron, zinc and certain fats and connective tissue components. It can be highly palatable and nutrient-dense for dogs and cats, but composition and quality vary with the source and processing, so selecting products from reputable manufacturers helps ensure safety, consistent nutrient content and mitigates risks for pets with specific allergies or sensitivities.
03
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.

04
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.

05
Whole Grain Corn
Whole grain corn is commonly used as a carbohydrate and energy source in pet foods, providing digestible starch, dietary fiber, some protein, and B vitamins and minerals while retaining more nutrients than refined corn. It is generally economical and well-tolerated by most dogs and many cats, but because cats are obligate carnivores animal-based proteins are nutritionally more important, and pets with grain sensitivities, certain metabolic conditions, or requirements for low-carbohydrate diets may need alternatives; proper sourcing and processing also reduce mycotoxin risk and improve digestibility.
