    Steam Oats: : Steamed oats are of decent quality and considered to be a quality grain.

    Peas: : Peas are Peas, and are a decent quality ingredient.

    Sunflower Oil: This ingredient is going to be the main source of fat. This is a named fat source and is of decent quality. Its safe to say that the ingredients listed before this one will make the majority of this recipe.

      My Golden Retirever has allergies. This food is great for him. He has really thrived on it and I would recommend it to anyone. Champion Pet Foods (Acana & Orijen) is the only brand out there I would feed to my dogs.
