Against the range

Animals on the label: Salmon only; Two meats or a meat plus salmon oil elsewhere.
Protein, dry matter: 37.5%; The lowest; 40% to 44.2% on the others.
Carbohydrate, dry matter: 20.4%; The highest; 7.3% on the Duck & Turkey.

The shortest list of the four, and the one a dog on a single fish can eat.

Every tray prints its meat share, and nothing dips below 72% animal content: chicken at 72%, duck 41% with turkey 31%, duck 50% with chicken 22%, salmon alone at 86%. No cereal appears; squash, sweet potato or potato carry a little starch.

Salmon oil at 0.5% is on three trays, and seaweed, yucca and a prebiotic run through all four. In dry matter, protein spans 37.5% to 44.2% and carbohydrate 7.3% to 20.4%.
