In plain English

Wellness Bowl Boosters Simply Shreds Flaked Tuna & Shrimp Recipe is a wet food topper featuring flaked tuna and shrimp in broth.

This food includes tuna and shrimp for diverse, high-bioavailability protein sources. The formula is inferred to be AAFCO compliant, meaning it's designed to be nutritionally complete.

The score is capped due to the crude protein and crude fat percentages being outside the ideal range for a topper.

Good fit for owners looking to add moisture and protein to their dog's diet. Less ideal as a standalone meal.

Why this score

At 48/100, this formula lands mid-pack. The lift comes from ingredient diversity, worth 5 points to the final number: Includes egg, named fish, or organ meat for diverse high-bioavailability protein. The ceiling on this score is 49, set because the guaranteed analysis falls below AAFCO's minimum nutrient profile. The fix path: a formula update that meets AAFCO minimums. That would lift the cap and put this formula above the B-band line at 60.
