i/d Low Fat Rice, Vegetable and Chicken Stew Wet Dog Food

Verified Jun 20, 2026

Dog · Wet Adult All Breed Sizes

This is a low‑fat, veterinary therapeutic canned stew formulated for adult dogs with digestive issues who need restricted dietary fat. It uses pork liver, chicken, and egg whites as key animal protein sources, with rice and carrots providing easily digestible carbohydrates and fiber. The recipe is supported by AAFCO feeding trials and includes added omega fatty acids, vitamins, and carnitine to help meet adult maintenance needs while being gentle on the gut.

KibbleLab Score
8.8 out of 10

Nutritionally, this is a well-designed, low‑fat wet diet for adult dogs that need digestive support under veterinary supervision. The moderate protein, very controlled fat, and higher carbohydrate levels are appropriate for many dogs with fat‑sensitive GI conditions, while still providing complete and balanced nutrition. It is best suited for adult dogs with specific medical reasons to be on a low‑fat, easily digestible diet, not as a routine food for healthy dogs.

The KibbleLab Score (1–10) is assessed from publicly available product data. Our evaluation is science-based, not marketing-based.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Formulated and tested through AAFCO feeding trials for complete and balanced nutrition for adult maintenance, which supports good digestibility and real‑world performance.
  • Very low fat (about 9% on a dry matter basis) with moderate protein, making it appropriate for many dogs that require fat restriction for gastrointestinal reasons.
  • Multiple high-quality, well-defined animal protein sources (pork liver, chicken, egg whites) help provide a good amino acid profile.
  • Includes omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, taurine, and carnitine, plus antioxidant vitamins C and E, which together support overall health needs in dogs with sensitive digestion.

Considerations

  • Contains common allergen sources such as chicken, egg, soy (soybean oil), and pork, so it is not appropriate for dogs with known sensitivities to these ingredients.
  • The carbohydrate content is relatively high, which is intentional for a low‑fat therapeutic diet but may not be ideal for highly active dogs that would benefit from more dietary fat and protein.
  • This is a prescription therapeutic diet and should be used under veterinary guidance, particularly for dogs with complex medical conditions or multiple dietary needs.

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
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.
03
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.
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
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.
