AAFCO: Animal feeding tests using AAFCO procedures substantiate that Pro Plan Active 27/17 Chicken & Rice Formula provides complete and balanced nutrition for all life stages, including growth of large sized dogs (70 lb or more as an adult) (per manufacturer). Chicken is the first ingredient.

This dry recipe sits below the Performance 30/20 line in Purina's Sport range, guaranteeing 27 percent protein and 17 percent fat minimums instead. The first five ingredients by pre-cook weight are chicken, rice, whole grain wheat, poultry by-product meal and corn protein meal. The AAFCO statement on the label covers all life stages, including growth of large sized dogs expected to reach 70 lb or more as an adult, and the guaranteed analysis includes live Bacillus coagulans probiotics alongside EPA and DHA. Purina packages this recipe in a 37.5 lb bag. The maintenance feeding chart runs from about 1/3 cup a day for a 3 to 12 lb dog up to roughly 4 cups plus more for dogs over 100 lb, with separate sections on the same label for weaning pups, growing pups and reproducing females. 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.
