Ingredients Analysis
First 5 Ingredients:
- Salmon meal
- Sweet potatoes
- Peas
- Potatoes
- Canola oil
Salmon meal is processed salmon parts and bones that are grounded down. It provides protein with all the essential amino acids a dog needs and healthy Omega-3 fatty acids.
Sweet potatoes contains an abundant amount of vitamin A and beta–carotene, which are important for the eyes / vision. It is also a good source of fiber and be aware that it does offer carbohydrates, since it is a starchy food type.
Peas are a good source of fiber, protein, and other nutrients too, but note that it does contribute carbohydrates from its starch.
Potatoes are a starchy food, thus it does contributes carbohydrates. Notably it is a good source for dietary-fiber, vitamin C B6, and potassium.
Canola oil is low in saturated fat and offers both Omega-6 and Omega-3 fatty acids. If it matter to you, then please note, it is very likely sourced from genetically modified crops.
