Ingredients are listed by pre cooking weight, and the first five here are Lamb, lamb meal, white rice, cracked pearled barley, grain sorghum, so the fresh named protein that leads the list loses water weight during cooking while any meal further down the list contributes concentrated protein after processing. It comes in 6oz, 6lb, 18lbs bags. The manufacturer publishes a feeding chart: Feeding chart by current weight from 3 lb to 40 lb, ranging from 1/3 to 2 1/3 standard measuring cups per day. The label also guarantees a live microorganism count from a blend of probiotic fermentation products. Dried chicory root appears in the ingredient list as a source of prebiotic fiber. Dogs who lose interest in a rotation often take it again with a single ingredient freeze dried topper crumbled over the top.
