Our read The ingredients
Fish top to bottom, plus a prebiotic that counts
Signature feature
Prebiotic fiber
Natural prebiotic fiber nourishes specific intestinal bacteria for digestive health.
What it is Dried chicory root, 13th on the list. Chicory is the classic source of inulin, a fiber your dog can't digest but the bacteria in its gut can ferment.
Our grade
- Marketing
- Modest
- Meaningful
Inulin is one of the better-studied prebiotics, and here it sits above the salt, so it's a real ingredient rather than a garnish. With a plain salmon, rice and oat base around it, the sensitive-stomach name holds up.
Meaningful A real difference for the dog eating it.
Salmon, fish meal, salmon meal and fish oil run from first to twelfth. The only named land animal on the list is beef fat.
- 1 Salmon
