Certified Humane beef opens the ingredient list in this dry kibble recipe, ahead of oats, whitefish meal, millet, quinoa and brown rice. The manufacturer states its beef is raised on pasture rather than in a feedlot, without antibiotics or added hormones, and is certified to the Certified Humane Raised and Handled animal welfare standard. Open Farm formulates the recipe to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for all life stages except the growth of large size dogs, 70 pounds or more as an adult, and lists it as suitable for small and medium breed puppies. The recipe ships in 4, 11 and 22 pound bags. Coconut oil, herring meal and pumpkin round out the early ingredient panel, ahead of the cranberries, salmon oil and supplement block. 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.
