Renal Support Low Protein Frozen Wet Dog Food
This is a veterinary-prescription, low‑protein, low‑phosphorus frozen wet diet designed to help support kidney and liver function in adult dogs. It uses ground lamb and lamb liver as the main animal protein sources, with rice and vegetables like cauliflower, carrots, and spinach providing additional calories and fiber. Omega-3s from marine microalgae oil and a tailored vitamin-mineral blend round out the formula for dogs who need a carefully controlled renal diet under veterinary supervision.

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.

Where these benefits come from
Benefits the manufacturer highlights in its own product marketing. KibbleLab lists them for reference and does not verify these claims.KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Protein and phosphorus are tightly controlled, which can be helpful for dogs with chronic kidney disease when used under veterinary direction.
- Uses lamb and lamb liver as defined animal protein sources, which many dogs find palatable and digestible.
- Includes omega-3 fatty acids from marine microalgae oil, which can be beneficial in many chronic disease states.
- Formulated with added B vitamins and a complete nutrient blend to help compensate for losses common in kidney support diets.
Considerations
- The protein level is intentionally very low, so this food is not appropriate for healthy dogs or those who do not truly need a renal diet.
- Lamb and lamb liver may be a problem for dogs with known lamb or red-meat allergies.
- This is intended for intermittent or supplemental feeding, so long-term use should only be under close veterinary supervision.
- Because it is a frozen wet food, careful storage and handling are important to maintain safety and palatability.

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
Sushi Rice
Sushi rice is a short-grain polished rice used in pet foods primarily as a digestible carbohydrate and binder that provides readily available energy and helps with texture and kibble cohesion. It is low in protein and fat, can be gentle on sensitive stomachs, but its high glycemic index, potential to contribute excess calories, and the tendency of rice to accumulate inorganic arsenic mean it should be used in moderation and never offered in seasoned or salty preparations; pets with diabetes, grain sensitivities, or obligate carnivores such as cats should consult a veterinarian.
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
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.
