Pasture raised lamb opens the ingredient panel in this grain free dry kibble recipe, ahead of garbanzo beans, whitefish meal and field peas. Open Farm formulates it to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for all life stages except the growth of large size dogs, 70 pounds or more as an adult, and states the recipe is suitable for small and medium breed puppies as well as adult dogs. Because ingredients are ordered by weight before cooking, the fresh lamb leads the list even though the combined legumes contribute more of the finished kibble's dry matter. The manufacturer sells the recipe in 4, 11 and 22 pound bags. Coconut oil, red lentils and green lentils appear further down the panel, ahead of the herring meal and vitamin and mineral supplement block. Dogs who lose interest in a rotation often take it again with a single ingredient freeze dried topper crumbled over the top. 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.
