Beef stew with a modest mineral story

Signature feature

Balanced minerals

Balanced minerals for heart & kidney health

Hill's says

What it is Dicalcium phosphate and potassium chloride are mineral salts in the later half of the ingredient list, joined by a mineral premix near the end.

Our grade

  1. Marketing
  2. Modest
  3. Meaningful

Hill's says the balance supports heart and kidney health. Mineral salts help set nutrient levels, a routine part of adult food. For healthy seniors, this is everyday nutrition rather than a special kidney formula.

Modest Real, but smaller than the pack makes it sound.

Carrots sit fourth, while green peas and spinach land 15th and 16th. The vegetables do not carry equal weight here.

  • 4 Carrots
  • 15 Green Peas
  • 16 Spinach

Our read The label

More fat calories than protein in this stew

The number

41%

Estimated share of calories from fat, using dry matter figures and standard calorie factors. Fat is this stew's largest energy source.
  1. Is it a high-protein food?

    No

    Its protein share is under half the wet food average here. Senior age alone is no reason to seek a lower protein meal.

  2. Does it avoid chicken?

    No

    Hydrolyzed chicken flavor appears in the ingredients. Dogs avoiding chicken need a recipe without it, even though beef headlines this one.

Feed it to
Healthy dogs aged 7 and up that do well with beef, pork, grains and chicken.
Skip it for
Puppies, dogs with chicken or beef allergies, and dogs needing a low fat or kidney diet.
RECALL HISTORY // HILL'S

1 FDA Recall On Record

JAN 31, 2019
POTENTIALLY ELEVATED LEVELS OF VITAMIN D

Canned Dog Food Reflects the manufacturer, not this recipe.

None in the last three years. Older events stay on the record. See the recall log

One honest caveat. These figures are what a label will tell us: protein, starch, the top of the ingredient list, flagged additives and the brand’s recall record. They cannot tell you whether your dog will do well on this food. Allergies, gut sensitivity, age and health conditions all matter more than any of it, and none of them are printed on a bag. If your dog is thriving on a food whose figures read lower than this one, that is not a mistake, and we would not switch on our say-so.
