For puppies, this chopped ground dinner lists chicken first, then water, meat by-product and animal liver, with beef fifth and fish oil, a DHA source, eighth. It's 78% water, so the 9% protein on the label is about 41% on a dry-matter basis, and a can is 421 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.

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
