This dry kibble recipe is formulated specifically for puppies and opens its ingredient panel with chicken, followed by whitefish meal, oats and wild caught Pacific salmon. Open Farm states the recipe is formulated to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for all life stages, including growth of large size dogs, 70 pounds or more as an adult, and lists it as suitable for all puppies. Because ingredients are ordered by pre cooking weight, the fresh chicken leads the panel even though the grains together contribute more of the finished kibble's dry matter. The manufacturer sells the recipe in 4 and 22 pound bags. Millet, brown rice, quinoa and coconut oil round out the early ingredient list ahead of the vitamin and mineral supplement block built for growth. 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.
