Vital Turkey Recipe with Carrots, Brown Rice & Spinach

DogFresh

Turkey leads and carrots come second in this refrigerated roll, ahead of turkey broth, eggs and brown rice. It's 76% water, so the 9.5% protein on the label is about 40% with the water out, and half a pound is 365 calories. Freshpet says it meets AAFCO's Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for all life stages.

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.

Manufacturer values are the label guaranteed analysis (minimums for protein and fat, maximums for fiber and moisture), not a typical analysis. Dry-matter figures are PawFYI estimates calculated from the moisture value. Ash assumed 3% (wet food, not published). Carbohydrate calculated by difference from the label values.

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
