This is a canned stew-style food for adult dogs that uses chicken as the main animal protein, with pork liver and vegetables like zucchini, peas, and carrots. It provides moderate protein and fat on a dry-matter basis, with rice and rice starch as the main carbohydrate sources. The recipe includes omega-6 and some omega-3 fatty acids plus added vitamins, minerals, and taurine for complete and balanced adult maintenance nutrition.

KibbleLab Score
8.3 out of 10

Overall, this is a high-quality wet food option for healthy adult dogs that prefer a stew texture and do well on a chicken-based diet. The formula offers complete and balanced nutrition with reasonable protein and fat levels and uses rice instead of corn, wheat, or soy for carbohydrate energy. It can work well as a primary diet or as a topper for adult dogs who need more moisture in their food.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Chicken and pork liver provide clearly named animal protein sources, with a solid dry-matter protein level around 28%.
  • Rice and rice starch offer digestible carbohydrate sources for dogs that do better without corn, wheat, or soy.
  • Includes sunflower oil and flaxseed to supply omega-6 and some omega-3 fatty acids, which can support skin and coat health.
  • Formulated to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for adult maintenance, so it is complete and balanced for adult dogs when fed as directed.

Considerations

  • Contains chicken and pork liver, which are common triggers for dogs with chicken or certain meat protein allergies and would not be suitable in those cases.
  • Carbohydrates make up a substantial portion of the diet on a dry-matter basis, which may be higher than ideal for very high-activity working dogs that benefit from more protein and fat.
  • This is an adult maintenance formula and is not appropriate as the sole diet for growing puppies or pregnant/lactating dogs.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
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.
02
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.
03
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.
04
Zucchini
Zucchini is a low‑calorie vegetable used in pet foods and treats to add moisture, fiber, potassium and antioxidant vitamins (notably beta‑carotene/vitamin A and vitamin C) while increasing bulk without many calories. It can support hydration and gentle digestive regularity in dogs and, to a lesser extent, cats when offered cooked or finely chopped in moderation, but it provides little protein or essential nutrients for obligate carnivores and should be introduced gradually, unseasoned and free of spoiled or bitter squash to avoid gastrointestinal upset.
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.
