Adult Beef & Barley Entrée Dog Food
Beef follows the water in this wet food for adult dogs, but barley, the other named ingredient, is fifth, behind pork liver and corn. For an “entrée”, labeling rules only require the named ingredients together to reach 25%, not counting added water. A 13 oz can is 363 calories, and Hill's cites AAFCO feeding tests for adult maintenance.

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.
