This dry kibble recipe leads with beef ahead of chicken meal, soybean meal, whole grain wheat and beef fat, weighed by pre cooking weight, and the manufacturer markets it as a high protein formula with no animal by-product meal and no fillers. Salmon appears further down the ingredient panel behind several grain and plant protein sources. The manufacturer's adequacy statement here is the feeding-trial form rather than the formulation form, meaning it substantiates the recipe through AAFCO feeding tests rather than nutrient calculation alone. It ships in 3.8 lb, 15 lb and 27.5 lb bags, with a feeding table running from a third of a cup for a 3 to 12 lb dog up to four and a half cups plus a quarter cup per additional 10 lb for dogs over 100 lb. Whatever food ends up in the bowl, a single ingredient freeze dried topper is a way to add interest without changing the diet, which is what Sniff and Shift makes in Malvern, Pennsylvania.
