Who is it for?
This dog food suits adult medium and large breed dogs whose owners want a grain-free diet built on a less-common protein. It's a reasonable choice for dogs that haven't done well on chicken- or beef-based recipes, and for households prioritizing joint-supportive nutrition for bigger breeds.
