NAMED ANIMAL PROTEIN
Venison Heart
The heart muscle of the deer, a muscle meat rather than an organ.
Why It Turns Up In Dog Food
- A natural source of taurine and CoQ10 linked to heart muscle function, and very lean. Useful where an uncommon protein is needed.
An ingredient on its own tells you very little.
What matters is how much of it there is and where it sits in the list. That is why we weigh
the top five rather than reacting to any single name further down.
