Ingredient Wiki
Chicken
The clean flesh of the chicken, with or without skin, used fresh. Roughly 70% of its weight is water, most…
Water
Plain water, used to make the recipe mixable and, in wet food, to fill the can.
Meat By-Products
The parts of a mammal left after the flesh is removed, without the animal being named.
Animal Liver
Liver from an unspecified animal.
Brown Rice
Rice with only the inedible outer hull removed, so the bran and germ stay on the grain.
Our read The ingredients
Chicken leads, but digestion gets oversold
Signature feature
Chicken
With high-quality animal protein to support easy digestion
What it is Chicken starts this wet recipe, with meat by-products and animal liver also near the front. Together they provide the animal protein Iams ties to easy digestion.
Our grade
- Marketing
- Modest
- Meaningful
Animal protein supplies amino acids dogs need, but that is ordinary nutrition. For a dog with a sensitive stomach, these ingredients alone give no reason to expect easier digestion.
Modest Real, but smaller than the pack makes it sound.
Meat by-products and animal liver join chicken ahead of brown rice, so the animal base extends beyond the named chicken.
- 1 Chicken
- 3 meat by-products
- 4 animal liver

Is it a high-protein food?
Below average
Its protein concentration on a dry basis falls below the average wet food we list. Chicken first does not make this especially rich in protein.
-

Mostly fat
About 62% of estimated calories come from fat. That makes this a rich meal for dogs needing careful fat intake or smaller portions.
- Feed it to
- Healthy adult dogs that tolerate chicken and do well with a richer wet food.
- Skip it for
- Dogs with chicken allergies, a history of pancreatitis or prescribed low-fat diets, and puppies.
