Benefits the manufacturer highlights in its own product marketing. KibbleLab lists them for reference and does not verify these claims.KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Turkey and turkey liver provide animal-based protein and important vitamins and minerals.
- Whole wheat macaroni, vegetables, and cranberries offer a mix of complex carbs, fiber, and natural antioxidants.
- Cod liver oil supplies beneficial omega-3 fatty acids to support skin, coat, and overall health.
- Formulated to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for adult maintenance, so it can be fed as a complete diet for adults.
Considerations
- Contains turkey and turkey liver, so it is not a good fit for dogs with poultry allergies.
- Includes whole wheat macaroni, which may not suit dogs that truly need a wheat-free diet.
- The relatively low protein percentage on an as-fed basis may be less ideal for very high-performance or working dogs compared to some higher-protein options.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Turkey
Turkey is commonly used as a primary animal protein in dog and cat foods, offering highly digestible, high‑quality protein and supplying essential amino acids along with B vitamins, phosphorus and zinc to support muscle maintenance and metabolism. Its fat level varies by cut so products can be lean or richer; some pets may develop allergies to poultry, cooked bones are hazardous, raw meat carries bacterial risk, and owners should rely on balanced commercial formulations (and ensure adequate taurine for cats) if turkey is a main ingredient.

02
Wheat Macaroni
Wheat macaroni is a processed pasta made from wheat flour commonly used in pet foods and treats as a digestible carbohydrate source, binder and bulking ingredient that supplies starch and some plant-based protein. While it provides calories and may supply B vitamins if made from enriched flour, it is low in essential amino acids for obligate carnivores, contains gluten that can trigger sensitivities in some animals, and can contribute to excess calories or a high glycemic load if overused, so it should be included as part of a balanced formulation rather than as a primary nutrient source.
03
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.

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.
View ingredient
05
Broccoli
Broccoli is used as a low‑calorie vegetable additive or treat ingredient rather than a protein source, providing fiber, vitamins (A, K, folate), minerals and antioxidants like sulforaphane that can support digestion and cellular health in dogs and, to a lesser extent, cats. It should be offered in small, plain, cooked or finely chopped portions because raw or large amounts can cause gas, gastrointestinal upset, choking, and—if fed excessively—potential thyroid interference from cruciferous compounds; avoid added seasonings such as onion or garlic.
