Pork diets can be hard to formulate since they’re quite high in omega-6 fatty acids. So we combined pork with fish to help balance out the fats and give your dog an anti-inflammatory diet that meets AAFCO minimum requirements for adult dogs. No grains, no synthetic vitamins and minerals.
NOTE: This food is for adult dogs only.
You may need to adjust the daily amount based on your dog’s breed and activity level.
