(per manufacturer).
Lamb leads the list, but whitefish meal sits third, so this is a two protein recipe rather than a single protein diet, and it is not an elimination diet for a dog suspected of reacting to fish. The ancient grains here are oats and millet rather than corn or wheat, which matters only if your vet has told you to avoid a specific grain. Read the AAFCO line carefully: it covers all life stages except growth of large size dogs, so a Great Dane or Newfoundland puppy needs a different bag, while an adult of any size is covered. At 26 percent protein and 15 percent fat it sits mid range for a dry food, and the published 428 kcal per cup is on the richer side, so measure rather than eyeball the portion. Open Farm calls the lamb humanely raised, which describes how it was kept rather than where it came from, and the product page carries no made in statement.
