Complete Adult Lamb Flavor Dry Dog Food
Lamb meal does make the list in this adult dog kibble, but in twelfth place, after the salt, while whole grain corn and chicken by-product meal lead. A “lamb flavor” name only has to deliver a taste you can detect. Protein is 21% (about 24% with the water out), and a cup is 405 calories.

Nutrition
Labels print these numbers with the water still in, which makes a can look weak next to a bag. The dry-matter column takes the water out, so the two compare fairly.

Where to buy
Store links go to each retailer’s own product page. PawFYI isn’t paid for them, and a store never changes the numbers. If that changes, anything paid will be labeled “Sponsored”. How we make money
