This product has 11 controversial ingredients, including artificial colors. The food has a high amount of carbs, compared to its protein and fat and contains relatively low-quality meat and fat. Pedigree has an average number of recalls, and overall purina one dog food was pretty transparent when answering our questions. After switching to another brand our chi-terrier mix stopped vomiting like she was before. She also seemed more alert and wouldn’t spend all day curled up listless like she did before.
Pedigree is a grain-inclusive dry dog food using a moderate amount of named and unnamed meat and bone meals as its dominant source of animal protein, thus earning the brand 1 star. Their product assortment includes wet food, dry food and treats for dogs from all life stages. These recipes help support overall health, so pets can put their best paws forward and lead a happy and healthy life. We love dog food brands that are committed to transparent business practices. If you make quality dog food you should be willing to openly talk about how it’s sourced and produced.
While it provides protein, corn gluten meal is less nutritious than meat (its ability to provide amino acids to your dog’s body is lower). Therefore, we do not consider it a high-quality dog food ingredient. Corn is a cereal grain that provides carbs, protein, fat, vitamin B and other nutrients. Ground corn in dog food is an inexpensive (and often feed-grade quality) ingredient that we do not consider a high-quality dog food ingredient.
There are no added oils in this product, meaning the fat comes from ingredients like the Animal Fat and the meats. Since they include unnamed animal sources, their fat content is questionable as well. The average dog food we reviewed has 39 total ingredients, with 1 controversial ingredient. This product has 11 total controversial ingredients and a surprising 5 of them are in the first five ingredients.
The animal fat used in the food is poultry fat. Take snacking to the next level with Pedigree’s Jumbone and Marrobone dog treats. These pedigree wet dog food aren’t just any dog chews—they pack a punch of flavor, have a satisfying texture-combination and are filled with a savory surprise!
