This pate recipe combines two proteins, opening its ingredient panel with chicken and chicken broth, followed by potatoes, chicken livers and wild caught Pacific salmon. Open Farm formulates the recipe to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for adult maintenance and states it is suitable for adult and senior dogs. Tapioca and agar agar give the pate its texture, and the formula's 78 percent moisture ceiling keeps the as fed protein and fat guarantees below the brand's dry kibble figures even on a comparable dry matter basis. The manufacturer sells the recipe in 12.5 ounce cans by the case of 12. Sweet potatoes and flaxseed round out the early ingredient list ahead of the carrots and dicalcium phosphate. 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. Dogs who lose interest in a rotation often take it again with a single ingredient freeze dried topper crumbled over the top.
