Active Urinary Dry Dog Food, 22-lb bag
Graded by The Sniff System
Forza10 Active Urinary Dry Dog Food is a dry formula that features fish protein, designed to support urinary health.
This food includes quality fat sources like salmon oil, which provides beneficial marine omega-3s like EPA and DHA. It also uses quality carbohydrate sources that offer fermentable fiber, which can be good for gut health.
The biggest concern here is the lack of an AAFCO statement, which means its nutritional completeness for any life stage is unverified. This absence caps its overall score.
Good fit for dogs needing urinary support, assuming the formula is complete. Less ideal if you require verified nutritional completeness.
Summary written by The Sniff System from the data above. Same rubric, same drivers, expressed in English.
For Labrador Retrievers with suspected cutaneous adverse food reactions, a strict elimination diet trial must last a minimum of 8 weeks to reliably diagnose or rule out a food-based trigger. Strong fit for active large sporting breeds like Labrador Retrievers, Golden Retrievers, and English Setters navigating skin allergies. The protein deck is built around a single species (salmon), with salmon oil at position 6 for EPA/DHA skin support. The National Research Council (2006) recommends a minimum of 2.6 grams of linoleic acid (an omega-6) per 1000 kcal of metabolizable energy to maintain skin barrier function in adult dogs (NRC, 2006) .

At 48/100, this formula lands mid-pack. The lift comes from fat quality, worth 12 points to the final number: Quality fat sources: named fat with marine oil (EPA and DHA source). 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. AAFCO compliance would also need to improve to reach the next band.
Quality fat sources: named fat with marine oil (EPA and DHA source).
Quality carbohydrate sources with fermentable fiber.
No AAFCO statement. Nutritional completeness unverified.
- Lowest crude fiber in Forza10's lineup (2.2% DMB)

- 1milled rice
Position 1 grain: primary carbohydrate base. This is a grain-inclusive formula with milled rice as the dominant carb.
- 2protein plantpotato protein
Concentrated potato protein. Like pea protein, it inflates the protein number without matching meat-quality amino acids.
Position 2: plant protein in the top 5. Stacked with animal protein, can inflate the crude protein number without matching the amino-acid quality of named animal sources.
- 3hydrolyzed fish protein
- 4products from the processing of herbs: bush clovers
- 5mouse ear hawkweed
- 6fatsalmon oil
Pure omega-3s. The thing skin-and-coat formulas are usually built around.
Position 6. Moderate marine-oil inclusion. Supplements EPA/DHA without being the primary fat.

- 8protein plantpotato protein
Concentrated potato protein. Like pea protein, it inflates the protein number without matching meat-quality amino acids.
Position 8: moderate plant-protein boost. Less likely to materially shift the protein profile.
