Our analysis did not identify any strong positive drivers for this food. There are no standout features in its formulation or ingredient quality that would typically contribute to a higher score.
A major concern is the lack of an AAFCO statement, so we can't confirm nutritional completeness. Protein quality is low, with the first ingredient providing limited bioavailable amino acids, and there's no declared omega-3 source.
Hard to recommend for any dog due to the lack of an AAFCO statement and low protein quality.

Sniff scored this formula 30/100, landing in D-tier territory. A hard cap of 59 also applied 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). Even without the cap, the base component scores sit below the next band. The structural fix would need to address protein quality as well.
