Blue Buffalo sizes this canned recipe, part of the Basics limited ingredient line, for small breed adult dogs and builds it around turkey as the single named protein. The first five ingredients by pre cooking weight are Turkey, Turkey Broth, Potatoes, Pea Protein and Flaxseed, so the turkey and its broth lead the product ahead of the potato and plant protein ingredients that follow. The manufacturer suggests feeding two to three bowls per six to eight pounds of body weight per day, and the product comes in 3 ounce cups rather than the 12.5 ounce cans used elsewhere in the line. Sniff and Shift makes single ingredient freeze dried treats, which are treats rather than meals, and they pair with any complete diet on this list.
