Wellness Natural Dog Food

Wellness Complete Health Dog Food looks like an above-average dry product. But ingredient quality alone cannot tell the whole story.

As a group, the brand features a moderate protein content of 29% and a mean fat level of 15%. Together, these figures suggest a carbohydrate content of 48% for the overall product line. And a fat-to-protein ratio of about 51%. Near-average protein. Near-average fat. And near-average carbs when matched to typical dry dog food. Even when you ponder the protein-boosting effect of the peas and flaxseed, this looks like the profile of a kibble containing a moderate amount of meat.

Ingredients: Deboned chicken, chicken meal, ground brown rice, barley, peas, oats, chicken fat (preserved with mixed tocopherols)

There has been no history of recalls for this product according to reports from the FDA or AVMA websites.

Sojos

Sojos began in the year 1985 in Michigan with a premix made in a kitchen. This was Sojos Original. The company also began making gourmet treats. After being sold in 1996 to WellPet, the company is now situated in Minnesota and is operated as a family-owned business.

Sojos, also known as Sojourner Farms, is raw pet food with the water removed, as they tell you on their website. The company makes both whole foods and pre-mixes. In both cases, you need to apply water to the food when you make it for your dog. You are supposed to add fresh meat to the pre-mixed food. The whole food is supposed to be a complete diet for your dog. Since the food is dry, adding water to the food makes it expand. The food is expensive, but since it is concentrated, you are buying more food than it seems. An 8-lb bag of Sojos rehydrates to 40 pounds of raw food.

Judging by its ingredients contents solely, Sojos Complete looks like above-average dry dog food. But ingredient quality by itself cannot tell the whole story.

As a group, the brand features a moderate protein content of 26% and a mean fat level of 13%. Together, these figures propose a carbohydrate content of 53% for the overall product line. And a fat-to-protein ratio of about 49%. Near-average protein. Below-average fat. And above-average carbs when compared to typical dry dog food. When you ponder the protein-boosting effect of the flaxseed and dried alfalfa, this looks like the profile of a dry product containing an average amount of meat.

Ingredients: Turkey, sweet potatoes, whole egg, broccoli, celery, apples,flax seeds, pecans, cranberries,tri-calcium phosphate, basil.

Like its predecessor, there has also not been any history of recalls on this product either.
