The manufacturer sells this recipe as Puppy Chicken & Salmon Pate.
Guaranteed analysis (as fed, per manufacturer): Crude Protein (min) 8%, Crude Fat (min) 5.5%, Crude Fibre (max) 2%, Moisture (max) 78%, DHA (min) 0.02%, Omega 3 (min) 0.3%, Omega 6 (min) 0.9%. Calorie content 1,143 kcal/kg or 405 kcal per can. AAFCO: Open Farm Puppy Chicken & Salmon Recipe is formulated to meet the nutritional levels established by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for Growth, including growth of large size dogs (70lb or more as an adult) (per manufacturer).
This is the only pate in Open Farm's dog line carrying a growth statement, and the statement explicitly includes large size dogs, which is the harder of the two growth profiles to meet because it caps calcium for slow-growing large breed puppies. Salmon leads the panel ahead of chicken and chicken liver, so it is a two protein recipe, and it is the only dog pate in the range with a published DHA guarantee, 0.02 percent, DHA being the fatty acid AAFCO lists for growth. At 405 kcal a can it is the highest calorie pate in the line alongside the turkey and the chicken and beef recipes, at 1,143 kcal/kg. Worth knowing before you switch: a 0.02 percent DHA minimum is the AAFCO growth floor rather than a generous level, so if you are feeding for brain and eye development specifically, that is a figure to raise with your vet.
