Vet-directed diet

This is a therapeutic diet, formulated for a specific medical condition under veterinary direction. 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.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • White fish is the only animal protein source, which can help some dogs with protein-related sensitivities.
  • Very low fat content makes it suitable for dogs that need restricted fat intake as directed by a veterinarian.
  • Uses cooked brown rice and sweet potatoes, which are generally easy-to-digest carbohydrate sources for many dogs.
  • Formulated to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for adult maintenance, so it provides complete and balanced nutrition for adult dogs.

Considerations

  • The protein level is on the low side compared with many standard adult dog foods, which may not suit very active or highly muscled dogs.
  • Because it is a prescription-style veterinary diet, it should be used under guidance from your veterinarian, especially if your dog’s GI signs are significant or ongoing.
  • Fish is a common allergen for some dogs, so it would not be appropriate if your dog has a known fish allergy.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Ocean White Fish
Ocean white fish is a lean, highly digestible animal protein commonly used in dog and cat foods to provide essential amino acids, improve palatability, and contribute some omega‑3 fatty acids and B vitamins. It can be a good low‑fat option for weight- or renal‑management diets, but may be an allergen for some pets and can carry environmental contaminants (e.g., mercury) depending on species and sourcing, so quality and source transparency are important.
02
Cod
Cod is a lean white fish used in pet foods as a high-quality, easily digestible animal protein that provides essential amino acids, B vitamins (notably B12), selenium and modest amounts of omega‑3 fatty acids for skin, coat and overall health. It is palatable and low in fat, but should be properly deboned and sourced; avoid feeding raw fish without appropriate processing (some raw fish can contain enzymes that affect thiamine) and monitor for fish allergies or contaminants such as mercury.

03
Pollock
Pollock is a lean white fish commonly used in pet foods as an easily digestible animal protein that boosts palatability and supplies essential amino acids. It provides some omega‑3 fatty acids and is generally low in contaminants compared with larger predatory fish, but can be an allergen for sensitive animals and must be properly processed and balanced (e.g., for taurine in cat diets) and preserved to prevent rancidity.
View ingredient
04
Haddock
Haddock is a lean white fish used in pet foods as a high-quality, highly digestible animal protein that supplies essential amino acids, B vitamins, phosphorus, selenium and modest amounts of omega‑3 fatty acids. It is palatable for dogs and cats and useful in low‑fat or limited‑ingredient diets, but products should be properly cooked and deboned to avoid parasites and bones, and owners should be mindful of fish allergies, potential contaminants (source-dependent), and not rely on haddock as the sole protein to prevent nutrient imbalances.
View ingredient
05
Brown Rice
Brown rice is a whole-grain carbohydrate and fiber ingredient commonly used in dog and cat foods to provide digestible energy, dietary fiber, and modest amounts of B‑vitamins and minerals; it typically offers more nutrients and fiber than white rice. It’s generally well tolerated and can help with sensitive stomachs, but because it is high in carbohydrates (not a primary protein source) and can contain trace inorganic arsenic depending on sourcing, it should be included in balanced formulations and monitored in overweight or diabetic pets.
