Osopure Grain-Free Turkey & Salmon in Gravy Canned Dog Food, 12-oz, case of 12
Graded by The Sniff System
Artemis Osopure Grain-Free Turkey & Salmon in Gravy is a wet dog food featuring turkey and salmon as its main protein sources.
This food has a strong protein profile, with turkey as the first ingredient, which means good biological value for your dog. It also includes dried egg product, salmon, and tuna, adding to the diversity of high-quality protein sources.
The main thing to note is that there's no AAFCO statement provided, which means the nutritional completeness of this formula is unverified.
Good fit for dogs who do well with turkey and salmon. Less ideal if you prefer foods with a verified AAFCO statement.

Below-average grade. 43/100 (D) reflects the structural fit of this formula against The Sniff System's eight scoring components. Protein quality did the heavy lifting (+20.5 points): Strong protein profile with turkey as the primary ingredient, delivering high biological value. What capped it: the score can't exceed 59 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). Removing the cap alone wouldn't change the band. AAFCO compliance is the deeper issue.
Strong protein profile with turkey as the primary ingredient, delivering high biological value.
Includes egg, named fish, or organ meat for diverse high-bioavailability protein.
- Lowest carb quality in Artemis's lineup (5/16)

Read why each ingredient is good or bad for dogs.
- 1protein animalturkey
Real meat. Lean protein, good amino acid profile, often well-tolerated by dogs sensitive to chicken.
Position 1: primary protein source. After cooking removes water, this may drop in proportional weight, but it anchors the recipe.
- 2fish broth
- 3water
Just water. Counted on the label of any wet or fresh food. The number tells you the moisture content.
- 4protein animalsalmon
Real fish meat. Natural source of omega-3s, which kibble usually has to add back from oil.
Position 4: significant protein contributor. Adds amino-acid diversity to the top of the deck.
- 5dried egg product
Whole eggs with the water removed. Same nutritional value as fresh eggs, just shelf-stable.
Position 5: significant protein contributor. Adds amino-acid diversity to the top of the deck.
- 6tapioca starch
Refined cassava starch, used as a binder. Easy to digest, low on nutrition.
- 7tuna
Position 7: supporting protein. Modest contribution to total protein weight.
- 8protein plantpea protein
Concentrated plant protein. Inflates the protein number on the label without matching the amino acid quality of meat.
Position 8. Moderate inclusion. Contributes carbohydrate and some plant protein.
- 9vegetablecarrots
Real vegetable. Fiber, beta-carotene, and a small amount of antioxidant value.
Position 9: garnish-level inclusion. Marketing-prominent but minimal nutritional impact at this position.
- 10pumpkins
- 11legumepeas
Cheap protein bulk. Fine in small amounts, but when peas stack with lentils and chickpeas in the top ingredients, it's the pattern the FDA flagged in its heart-disease investigation. See why →
Position 11. Trace inclusion. Below the level associated with the FDA's DCM-pattern concerns.
- 12vegetablebroccoli
Real vegetable. Adds fiber and some antioxidants. Fine in the small amounts used in kibble.
