This dry kibble recipe starts with chicken ahead of whole grain corn, barley, whole grain wheat and soybean meal, weighed before cooking removes moisture from the fresh meat. The manufacturer includes dried carrots and dried tomatoes as the produce accents and markets the recipe as antioxidant rich for immune support. It is formulated for adult dog maintenance and ships in 3.5 lb and 14 lb bags, with a feeding table running from half a cup for a 3 to 12 lb dog up to five cups plus a third of a cup per 10 lb for dogs over 100 lb, based on a standard 8 ounce cup measuring about 101 grams of product. The label recommends most adult dogs be fed once daily, moving to twice a day when activity or appetite calls for a higher feed intake. Whatever food ends up in the bowl, a single ingredient freeze dried topper is a way to add interest without changing the diet, which is what Sniff and Shift makes in Malvern, Pennsylvania.
