Top Pick
Nutritionally, this is a high-quality, gently cooked wet option that can work well as a full diet or a topper for many puppies and adult dogs. It uses real chicken and broth as the main ingredients, supported by wholesome plant ingredients and a complete vitamin and mineral premix. The relatively low fat level and moderate calories per box can be helpful for dogs that need lighter meals, though very active or underweight dogs may need larger portions or a higher-fat food alongside it.

KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Chicken and chicken bone broth are the lead ingredients, providing high-quality animal protein and good palatability.
- Includes sweet potatoes, spinach, apples, and salmon oil, which contribute carbohydrates, fiber, and omega-3 fatty acids for overall health.
- Formulated with a comprehensive vitamin and chelated mineral mix to support complete and balanced nutrition when fed as directed.
- Wet stew format can be very appealing and hydrating, and is easy to mix with dry food as a topper.
Considerations
- Chicken is a common food allergen for dogs, so this formula is not a good choice for dogs with known chicken sensitivities.
- The fat content is on the low side for a wet food, which may not provide enough energy density for very high-energy or working dogs unless larger volumes are fed.
- Tapioca is used as a carbohydrate and thickening agent; while safe, it doesn’t add much in the way of protein or micronutrients compared with some other carb sources.

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 Bone Broth
Chicken bone broth is commonly used as a palatability enhancer and hydration topper in dog and cat diets, supplying gelatin, collagen-derived amino acids and trace minerals that may support joint comfort and gut health while making food more appealing. It is not a complete food, so choose low-sodium, additive-free products (avoid broths containing onion, garlic or excessive fat), and ensure no bone fragments are present—use caution with pets that have pancreatitis, sodium-sensitive conditions, or known food sensitivities.
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
Spinach
Spinach is used in pet foods as a leafy vegetable to provide fiber, moisture, and micronutrients such as vitamins A, C and K, folate, iron and antioxidant compounds, but it is not a primary protein source. While it can add low‑calorie nutrients and antioxidants to a dog or cat’s diet, spinach is high in oxalates (and can contain nitrates) which in large amounts may reduce mineral absorption or contribute to urinary/kidney issues in susceptible animals, so it should be fed in moderation and pets with specific health concerns should consult their veterinarian.

05
Apple
Apple is used in pet foods as a fruit ingredient that supplies soluble fiber (pectin), natural flavor, moisture, and small amounts of vitamins and antioxidants. It can support digestion and add low‑calorie sweetness, but seeds and cores should be avoided because of cyanogenic compounds, apples are relatively high in natural sugars so should be used in moderation (and washed to remove pesticides), and cats—being obligate carnivores—gain less nutritional benefit than dogs.
