In addition, beef is a good source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which support healthy skin and coat.

Turkey Meal is a dry, rendered product from whole turkeys that has been through some processing to remove water and fat. It's a highly concentrated protein/mineral resource.

Turkey meal is basically turkey with a longer storage time and no moisture. It's a protein rich food and also magnesium and zinc resource for the health of your dog’s skin and coat. However, it's an already processed material in dog food manufacturing and makes the food ultra-processed.

This is also a great source of protein and is higher in protein concentration than raw beef.

Garbanzo Beans, aka chickpeas, are a good source of plant-based protein and fiber for dogs. They are also low in fat and contain a range of essential vitamins and minerals, including zinc, iron, and magnesium.
