Purina says

What it is Dried Bacillus coagulans fermentation product is a spore-forming bacterial culture added to the kibble. It sits last on the ingredient list.

Our grade

  1. Marketing
  2. Modest
  3. Meaningful

Spore-forming bacteria tolerate storage and stomach acid better than many live cultures. That gives the gut a plausible nudge, but one strain is a modest reason to choose this food.

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

Rice, two corn ingredients and wheat fill four of the first five slots, so grains carry a substantial share of this recipe.

  • 2 rice
  • 3 whole grain corn
  • 4 corn protein meal
  • 5 whole grain wheat
  • 14 Salt

Estimated share of calories from fat in each cup. It matters for dogs whose diet limits fat.
  1. How was it proven?

    Feeding trial

    Purina fed this recipe to dogs under AAFCO adult maintenance trial rules. That tests the finished food in dogs, beyond checking a formula on paper.

  2. Is this high in protein?

    No

    Protein sits slightly below the dry food average we list. Chicken leads, but corn protein meal also contributes to the protein total.

Feed it to
Healthy adult dogs with ordinary activity that tolerate chicken and grains.
Skip it for
Puppies, dogs allergic to chicken, and dogs with pancreatitis or a diet that limits fat.

    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.
