Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Organ meats like pork liver and kidney plus chicken provide rich, highly digestible protein and key nutrients.
  • The nutrient profile offers moderate protein and fat, which suits many average adult dogs for daily feeding.
  • Includes omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which can support skin, coat, and overall health.
  • AAFCO feeding trials confirm it provides complete and balanced nutrition for adult maintenance.

Considerations

  • Contains chicken, egg, soy, and wheat, so it is not a good match for dogs with allergies to any of these ingredients.
  • The stew is relatively energy-dense per can, so portion control is important for dogs prone to weight gain.
  • Multiple animal and plant protein sources make it less ideal as a first choice for strict elimination diets.

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
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
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.
View ingredient
05
Pork Kidney
Pork kidney is an organ meat used as a protein-rich, nutrient-dense ingredient in pet foods, supplying high-quality animal protein along with B vitamins (notably B12 and riboflavin), iron, phosphorus and trace minerals that support energy metabolism and red blood cell health in dogs and cats. It is typically included in moderation because organ meats have concentrated minerals and purines, so sourcing from inspected, properly processed suppliers is important to minimize contamination and it may be unsuitable for pets with certain conditions such as existing kidney disease.
