Composition — dry-matter basis

why dry matter
Moisture hides the real recipe: kibble is ~10% water, canned food ~78%. Removing water puts every food on one scale, so these are the only nutrition numbers that can be compared across foods. As-fed label values shown small.
Protein 26.7%label: 24% min lower than 77% of dry foods
Fat 7.8%label: 7% min lower than 99% of dry foods
Fiber 5.6%label: 5% max typical — the median dry food is 5.4%
Est. carbohydrates ash not disclosed → 8% assumed, so this is an estimate ≈51.1%computed anchor available once more brands disclose ash
Calcium / Phosphorus extended guarantees: none disclosed Not disclosedcalcium/phosphorus no ratio to anchor

Standards & ingredients

AAFCO statement
what this means
Two kinds of AAFCO claims exist. Most foods are only "formulated to meet" nutrient profiles — a paper calculation. A smaller set carry the stronger claim: fed to real dogs in AAFCO-procedure trials ("Animal feeding tests using AAFCO procedures substantiate…").
 Formulated to meet · maintenance
First five ingredients (by pre-cooking weight)Hydrolyzed chicken · chicken meal · oatmeal · pearled barley · white rice
Named animal protein first; named meals onlyYes
Legumes in first 10 (FDA DCM inquiry)None
BHA / BHT preservativesNone on label
Carrageenan (thickener)None
Ethoxyquin
why unknown
When a fish-meal supplier adds ethoxyquin, U.S. rules don't require it on the finished label — so no label can prove its absence for recipes containing fish meal. We report this as a gap rather than guessing.
 Can't be determined from label

The source material

The full ingredient list

Every flag on the Verified Label is computed from this list. Ingredients are ordered by pre-cooking weight — the first five carry the most information.

Hydrolyzed chicken, chicken meal, oatmeal, pearled barley, white rice, brown rice, dried plain beet pulp, hydrolyzed chicken liver, menhaden fish meal, pumpkin, dried yeast, natural flavor, chicken fat (preserved with mixed tocopherols), salmon oil (preserved with mixed tocopherols), dried egg product, flaxseed, salt, potassium chloride, ground miscanthus grass, psyllium seed husk, Vitamins [choline chloride, Vitamin E supplement, ascorbic acid, calcium carbonate, riboflavin supplement, niacin supplement, calcium pantothenate, Vitamin A supplement, Vitamin D3 supplement, pyridoxine hydrochloride, biotin, Vitamin B12 supplement, thiamine mononitrate, folic acid], dried chicory root, dried Lactobacillus acidophilus fermentation product, Minerals [zinc sulfate, manganese sulfate, ferrous sulfate, magnesium sulfate, zinc proteinate, iron proteinate, manganese proteinate, copper sulfate, magnesium proteinate, copper proteinate, calcium iodate], calcium sulfate, monocalcium phosphate, sorbic acid (preservative), sodium selenite, fennel, DL- methionine, yucca schidigera extract, L-tryptophan, taurine, dried Lactobacillus casei fermentation product, dried Lactobacillus reuteri fermentation product, dried Lactobacillus plantarum fermentation product

Wet ingredients like fresh hydrolyzed chicken shrink once cooked — which is why named meals appearing high on the list matter: they keep meaningful animal protein after moisture is removed.
