Top Pick
This gently cooked fish-based food offers a moist, high-moisture option that can work well for many dogs, including those who enjoy fish or need extra hydration. The combination of cod, salmon, vegetables, and added vitamins and minerals makes it appropriate as a stand-alone diet or as a topper for kibble. Its moderate fat and protein levels may suit dogs who don’t need a very rich or calorie-dense food.

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
- Wild-caught cod and salmon provide high-quality animal protein and omega-3 fatty acids.
- Very high moisture content can help support hydration, especially for dogs that don’t drink much water.
- Includes ground flaxseed, salmon oil, and fish bone broth, which add essential fatty acids and flavor.
- Contains added taurine and DHA, which support a well-rounded nutrient profile for everyday feeding.
Considerations
- Fish is a common allergen for some dogs, so this wouldn’t be a good fit if your dog reacts to fish.
- The protein level is on the moderate side, so very active or working dogs may need a higher-protein option.
- Dogs used to dry kibble may need a gradual transition to this high-moisture, gently cooked texture to avoid digestive upset.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
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.

02
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.

03
Butternut Squash
Butternut squash is a cooked vegetable ingredient used in pet foods as a source of soluble and insoluble fiber, complex carbohydrates, and antioxidants (notably beta‑carotene/vitamin A), often included to aid digestion, add moisture, and support healthy weight management. It can benefit dogs and, to a lesser extent, cats by supplying fiber, vitamins A and C, and potassium, but should be cooked and seedless for digestibility, used sparingly in diabetic animals due to carbohydrate content, and treated as a complement to—not a replacement for—animal-based protein.

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
Fish Bone Broth
Fish bone broth is commonly used in pet foods and toppers as a moisture- and flavor-enhancing ingredient that also supplies gelatin, collagen and bioavailable minerals (such as calcium and phosphorus) derived from cooked fish bones. It can support hydration, palatability and provide joint- and gut-supportive compounds, but pet parents should be aware of potential fish allergies, variable sodium and contaminant levels (e.g., heavy metals) and ensure products are properly processed and not relied on as a complete diet.
