Green Lentils & Broccoli Vegan Wet Dog Food, 14-oz can, case of 12
Graded by The Sniff System
Ami Green Lentils & Broccoli is a vegan wet dog food, with lentils as the primary protein source.
There isn't much to highlight as a positive for this food. It's a vegan formula, which might appeal to some owners.
The biggest concern is the lack of an AAFCO statement, meaning its nutritional completeness isn't guaranteed. It's also a plant-protein-dominated formula, with lentils as the first ingredient, and it lacks a declared omega-3 source.
Hard to recommend for any dog due to the lack of an AAFCO statement and its plant-protein-dominated formula.

At 21/100, this formula sits in territory where we recommend switching. The ceiling on this score is 59, set because the AAFCO nutritional adequacy statement isn't disclosed on the retailer page (so our methodology can't verify the formula meets adult, growth, or all-life-stages standards). The cap isn't the binding constraint here. Protein quality would also need to improve to reach the next band.
