Grain Free Chicken & Lamb Recipe in Savory Broth Wet Dog Food

Verified Aug 22, 2026

Dog · Wet Adult All Breed Sizes

This is a grain-free, broth-based wet food for adult dogs, with chicken as the primary ingredient and lamb as an additional animal protein source. Sweet potato and green beans provide carbohydrates and fiber, while added vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants help round out the nutrient profile for everyday maintenance. The high moisture and shredded-meat style can make it especially appealing and easy to eat for many dogs.

Strong Choice

This is an excellent-quality grain-free wet food for adult dogs that uses real chicken and lamb as its main protein sources and offers a relatively simple, straightforward ingredient list. It provides complete and balanced nutrition for adult maintenance with good moisture content and moderate protein and fat levels for a wet diet. It’s a good fit for many healthy adult dogs, particularly those who do well on grain-free formulations and enjoy a stew or broth-style texture.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Named animal proteins (chicken first, plus lamb) provide clear, high-quality protein sources.
  • Grain-free formula that relies on sweet potato and green beans for carbohydrates and fiber instead of grains.
  • No artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives; uses mixed tocopherols as a natural preservative.
  • Complete and balanced for adult maintenance according to AAFCO nutrient profiles, so it can be fed as a primary diet for adult dogs.

Considerations

  • Contains chicken and lamb, which are common protein allergens, so it is not ideal for dogs with known sensitivities to these meats.
  • Grain-free formula relies on sweet potato and legumes/vegetables for carbs; while there are no peas or lentils listed, owners specifically avoiding grain-free diets should be aware.
  • Relatively low fat (minimum 2% as-fed) for a wet food, which may be less suitable for very active or underweight dogs that need higher calorie density.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
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.

02
Chicken Broth
Chicken broth is commonly used in pet foods and toppers as a flavorful liquid base or gravy to improve palatability and add moisture, providing modest amounts of soluble protein, electrolytes and minerals. It can help encourage eating and increase hydration, but owners should choose low‑sodium, onion‑ and garlic‑free formulations (or make homemade broth), since commercial broths may contain excessive salt, seasonings or additives that are unsafe or unsuitable for dogs and cats.
03
Sweet Potato
Sweet potato is used in pet foods as a digestible carbohydrate and source of soluble fiber, vitamins (notably beta‑carotene), minerals and antioxidants, often helping with stool quality and serving as a binder or energy ingredient. It is generally well tolerated by dogs and can support gut health, but because cats poorly convert beta‑carotene to vitamin A and require preformed vitamin A from animal sources, sweet potato is not a substitute for meat-based nutrients; its relatively high carbohydrate content also means portion control is advised for overweight or diabetic pets and it should be cooked for best digestibility.

04
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.
View ingredient
05
Green Bean
Green beans are a low-calorie vegetable commonly used in pet foods and treats as a source of soluble and insoluble fiber, moisture, and modest amounts of vitamins and minerals (such as vitamins A and K, folate, and potassium), helping support digestive health and weight management. They are not a primary protein source and provide limited nutrition for obligate carnivores like cats, so feed in moderation and use plain, cooked or fresh beans without added salt, seasonings, or sauces to avoid gastrointestinal upset or excess sodium.
