Our grade
- Marketing
- Modest
- Meaningful
The claim is true. The meat, liver and gizzard supply the protein, and the bone supplies calcium. But protein sits barely above the freeze-dried topper average, so this is normal for the format with a big number on the front.
Modest Real, but smaller than the pack makes it sound.
Pumpkin seed and seven organic fruits and vegetables split the last 5% with the probiotics and vitamins. The produce the pack names is a garnish.
- 4 Pumpkin Seed
- 5 Organic Cranberries
- 9 Organic Carrots
- 11 Organic Blueberries

Is it a meal?
No, a topper
Stella & Chewy's sells it as a daily sprinkle over the regular bowl. It goes on top of a complete food, never in place of one.
-
Is it a high-protein food?
Yes
Protein runs about half the dry weight, just over the freeze-dried topper average. Carbs come in well under that format's norm.
- Feed it to
- Healthy adults on a complete food that need a chicken boost to start eating, and owners avoiding grains.
- Skip it for
- Dogs on a low-fat diet or with a history of pancreatitis, dogs allergic to chicken, and homes not set up to handle raw poultry.
