AAFCO: Animal feeding tests using AAFCO procedures substantiate that Pro Plan Small Breed Shredded Blend Beef & Rice Formula provides complete and balanced nutrition for maintenance of adult dogs (per manufacturer). Beef is the first ingredient.

This dry kibble recipe is formulated for small breed adult dogs under 20 lb and blends a shredded, tender textured piece with crunchy kibble, leading with beef ahead of rice, poultry by-product meal and beef fat, weighed by pre cooking weight. The manufacturer adds a guaranteed live probiotic, Bacillus coagulans, along with glucosamine and vitamin C, none of which AAFCO recognizes as essential nutrients, so each carries an asterisk on the label. The adequacy statement is the feeding-trial form, substantiated through AAFCO feeding tests. It ships in 6 lb and 18 lb bags, with a feeding table running from a third of a cup for a 3 to 12 lb dog up to one and a third cups for a 13 to 20 lb dog, using a standard 8 ounce cup measuring about 108 grams of product. Dogs who lose interest in a rotation often take it again with a single ingredient freeze dried topper crumbled over the top.
