Strengths
- Lamb and lamb liver provide animal-based protein and essential amino acids for adult and senior dogs.

- It includes marine microalgae oil as a source of EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids.
- AAFCO feeding trials confirm it is complete and balanced for adult maintenance.
Considerations
- This food is formulated for adult maintenance, so it is not appropriate as the sole diet for growing puppies or pregnant or nursing dogs.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Lamb
Lamb is commonly used in dog and cat foods as a high-quality animal protein that supplies essential amino acids, iron and B vitamins and is often chosen for its palatability or as a “novel” protein in elimination diets. It can be higher in fat and calories than some other meats and may still cause allergic reactions in sensitive animals, so owners of overweight pets or those with food sensitivities should consult a veterinarian and use proper handling/cooking practices if feeding raw or homemade lamb.

02
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.
03
Cauliflower
Cauliflower is used in pet foods as a low‑calorie vegetable ingredient that provides soluble and insoluble fiber, vitamins (notably C and K) and phytonutrients, contributing bulk, moisture and texture for weight management and digestive health while supplying little protein or fat. It should be fed in moderation—especially to cats, which require meat‑based nutrition—because large amounts can cause gas or gastrointestinal upset and cruciferous vegetables contain goitrogenic compounds that could affect thyroid function; cooking or finely chopping reduces choking risk and may improve digestibility.

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
Lamb Liver
Lamb liver is an organ meat used as a nutrient-dense protein and flavor enhancer in pet foods and treats, supplying concentrated vitamins (especially vitamin A and B12), iron, copper and high-quality amino acids important for both dogs and cats. It is highly palatable and can help prevent nutrient deficiencies, but should be fed in moderation because excessive liver intake can lead to vitamin A toxicity and digestive upset, and proper sourcing/handling is important to avoid foodborne pathogens.
