At a Glance

Higher protein than 81% of similar foods

Protein is the building block of strong muscles, healthy organs, and a shiny coat. This food packs more of it than most in its category.

Marine omega-3 source (EPA/DHA direct)

This food includes a marine omega-3 source like fish oil or salmon oil, which delivers EPA and DHA directly. Plant sources like flaxseed only provide ALA, which pets convert very poorly.
