Ingredients Analysis
8 of 9 matched
-
1 Dried Potato
CarbsDescription
Contains mainly carbs, often used as an alternative filler for grain-free pet foods.
Why Concerned?
An inexpensive filler without gluten, with limited nutrition value to dogs / cats.
-
2 Pea Flour
Carbs Plant ProteinDescription
Produced by dry milling of dehulled peas, which is a type of legume that is added to boost up the protein content and acts as an alternative carb. It contains around 22% protein.
Digestion Concern
Legume contains oligosaccharides, which is a 3 - 5 carbon short-chain sugar that are indigestible by dogs / cats.
-
3 Insects
Insect ProteinDescription
Protein extracted from insects. It is a new protein source used in pet foods, some insects such as cricket are a complete protein source (comparable to common animal protein), meaning it contains all nine essential amino acids. However, more research are required to make a solid conclusion about insects for dogs/cats.
-
4 Sunflower Seed Oil
FatDescription
Oil from sunflower seeds, rich in vitamin E and linoleic acid.
- 5 Partially Hydrolyzed Yeast
No match found in database
-
6 Potato Protein
Plant Protein ConcentrateDescription
A protein concentrate extracted from potatoes, contains about 75% protein, often added to boost up the protein content of pet foods with less meat.
Why Notice?
High level of plant-based protein is not easy to digest and offers less biological value. Good quality pet foods should obtain sufficient protein from animal sources.
Digestion Concern
It offers much less biological value (less digested and absorbed by the body) to pets compared to animal protein.
-
7 Minerals
SupplementDescription
A general term for mineral supplementation, specific sources not identified.
-
8 Beet Fiber
CarbsDescription
Fiber from sugar beets, a good source of both soluble and insoluble fiber for digestive health.
-
9 Carob Flour
CarbsDescription
A substitute for chocolate which is perfectly safe for dogs and cats. Compared to chocolate, it contains more carbs and sugar as a type of legume.
Digestion Concern
Legume contains oligosaccharides, which is a 3 - 5 carbon short-chain sugar that are indigestible by dogs / cats.
Tips
- Some protein sources are less clear: Insects appear near the top without a clearly defined animal source.
- Plant protein signal: Pea Flour, Potato Protein may raise the listed protein percentage without meaning there is more meat.
- Higher-priority ingredients to review: Potato Protein.
- Possible digestion triggers: Pea Flour, Potato Protein, Carob Flour have digestion notes; watch tolerance if your pet has a sensitive stomach.

Animal Protein
Low- Animal 36%
- Plant 18%
- Plant concentrate 45%
Protein in this recipe leans on plant signals: only 36% comes from animal sources, while plant-protein concentrates make up 45% and whole plant proteins 18%. Plant concentrates like pea or soy isolate are cheap protein boosters but lack the amino-acid profile pets need from meat.
