Small Dog Bite Size Chicken Recipe
Bite-size pieces are the point of this refrigerated chicken recipe for small dogs. It's 16% protein, about 43% with the water out, and Freshpet says it meets AAFCO's profile for all life stages except the growth of large dogs (70 lb or more as adults), which only matters for a big-breed puppy.

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
