Where it is less of a fit

  • If your dog needs a change of protein, check the labels, as chicken leads twenty one products
  • If you want every recipe scoring well, check the gravy and jelly lines, since those read Average
  • If transparency is your first read, check it recipe by recipe, as sixteen sit at Good
