Graded by The Sniff System
Nature's Logic 100% Natural Canine Lamb Feast is a wet dog food for all life stages, featuring lamb and lamb liver as its main protein sources.
This food offers good protein quality, with lamb providing solid amino acid coverage. It also includes quality fat sources like herring oil, which is a marine oil rich in EPA and DHA. Plus, the carbohydrate sources provide fermentable fiber.
The main thing to watch out for is that the AAFCO statement is ambiguous or incomplete. Nothing concerning in the ingredient deck itself.
Good fit for dogs of all ages and sizes. Nothing serious working against it.
