Declaration

Exactly as the serving prints it, heaviest first

Water Sufficient For Processing, Lamb, Mackerel, Pumpkin, Lamb Lung, Lamb Liver, Lamb Kidney, Sunflower Seed Oil, Locust Bean Gum, Xanthan Gum, Guar Gum, Potassium Chloride, Choline Chloride, Zinc Sulfate, Vitamin E Supplement, Thiamine Mononitrate (Vitamin B1), Nicotinic Acid (Vitamin B3), Manganese Sulfate, Potassium Iodide, Vitamin A Supplement, Calcium Pantothenate, Riboflavin Supplement (Vitamin B2), Pyridoxine Hydrochloride (Vitamin B6), Folic Acid, Vitamin D3 Supplement, Vitamin B12 Supplement

Ingredients are listed heaviest first, and a dog food needs very little salt, so the tail of the list is present in very small amounts.

NUTRITION WITH THE WATER TAKEN OUT

Wet food is mostly water, so the label’s percentages look small next to kibble. Taking the water out is the only fair way to compare it with other foods.

NUTRIENT ON THE LABEL WATER OUT WET FOOD MEDIAN
PROTEIN 8.0% 53.3% 43.2%
FAT 6.0% 40.0% 22.2%
FIBER 0.5% 3.3% -
CARBS (EST.) - 0.0% -

Carbohydrate is not on any label: it is what is left after protein, fat, fiber, water and an assumed 2% ash.

    RECALL HISTORY // WERUVA

    We have not matched any FDA recall to Weruva. We check the feed daily and this page updates when that changes. See the recall log

    Protein with the water taken out, read the same way.

    One honest caveat. These figures are what a label will tell us: protein, calories, 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 serving. 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.
