This is a grain-free canned stew for puppies and adult dogs, including large breeds, with chicken and beef as the main protein sources. It offers moderate fat and low carbohydrate content for a wet food, with added omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids from fish oil and flaxseed to support skin and coat.

KibbleLab Score
8.3 out of 10

Strong Choice

This is a well-formulated grain-free wet food that uses named animal proteins (chicken, beef, chicken liver, egg) along with vegetables like carrots and peas, and it’s nutritionally balanced for both puppies and adults, including large-breed puppies. The protein and fat levels are appropriate for a canned diet, and the added fish oil and flaxseed provide beneficial fatty acids. It’s a good option for dogs who do well on grain-free diets, though the use of peas and potatoes as main carbohydrates means it’s best chosen thoughtfully for breeds with potential heart concerns.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Complete and balanced per AAFCO for growth and maintenance, including large-breed puppies, which is relatively uncommon for canned foods.
  • Multiple high-quality animal protein sources (chicken, beef, chicken liver, egg) high in essential amino acids.
  • Relatively low carbohydrate content for a wet food, with fat and protein levels appropriate for active dogs and growing puppies.
  • Includes fish oil and ground flaxseed, providing omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids that can support skin and coat health.

Considerations

  • Contains chicken, beef, egg, and fish, all of which are common food allergens, so it may not be suitable for dogs with known sensitivities to these proteins.
  • Grain-free and uses peas and potatoes as key carbohydrate sources; legume-heavy, grain-free diets have been associated with certain heart issues (DCM) in some dogs, so this is worth discussing with your veterinarian if you have a predisposed breed.
  • Higher moisture canned diets are less calorie-dense, so larger or very active dogs may need several cans per day to meet their energy needs if not combined with kibble.

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.
View ingredient
02
Beef Broth
Beef broth is commonly used in pet foods and toppers as a savory flavoring and moisture enhancer to boost palatability and encourage hydration, and depending on preparation can contribute small amounts of protein, minerals and gelatin-derived collagen. Care should be taken because commercial broths are often high in sodium and may contain added ingredients (onion, garlic, spices, preservatives or sweeteners) that can be harmful to dogs or cats, so choose low-sodium, pet-safe formulations and avoid if your pet has a beef allergy or sodium-sensitive condition.
03
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.
04
Beef
Beef is commonly used in dog and cat foods as a primary animal protein and palatability enhancer, supplying high-quality essential amino acids, B vitamins, iron, and zinc that support muscle maintenance and overall health. Owners should note beef can be calorie- and fat-dense and is a relatively common allergen, and raw or improperly handled beef carries microbial risks, so formulation, fat content, and sourcing/processing are important considerations.
View ingredient
05
Chicken Liver
Chicken liver is a nutrient-dense organ meat commonly used in pet foods and treats as a highly palatable protein source and flavor enhancer, providing concentrated vitamins (especially vitamin A and B-complex), iron, and copper that support energy metabolism, red blood cell formation, and skin/coat health in both dogs and cats. Because it is so rich, liver should be fed in moderation—excessive intake can cause vitamin A toxicity, and its high fat content and risk of bacterial contamination mean it should be properly sourced or cooked and limited for pets with pancreatitis or specific dietary restrictions.
