    Chicken:Chicken is a decent quality ingredient. Although it is a little deceiving. The ingredient “Chicken”, not in the “Meal’” form is inclusive of its water content. Meaning, once the water content is removed (during the cooking process) this ingredient can lose up to %75 of its weight, thus likely to fall further in the ingredients list. Chicken is the clean combination of flesh and skin with or without accompanying bone, derived from the parts or whole carcasses of chicken- exclusive of feathers, heads, feet, and entrails.

    Chicken Meal: Chicken Meal is an excellent protein source. Unlike the ingredient “Chicken”, the water content has been removed from this ingredient. The AAFCO definition is the following: "Chicken which has been ground or otherwise reduced in particle size."

    Turkey Meal: Turkey Meal is a quality ingredient that is high in calcium and an excellent source of protein. The official AAFCO definition of Turkey Meal is:"the ground clean combination of flesh and skin with or without accompanying bone, derived from the parts or whole carcasses of turkey or a combination thereof, exclusive of feathers, heads, feet and entrails."

    Brown Rice: : The incomplete AAFCO definition of Brown Rice is the following: "unpolished rice after the kernels have been removed. Not a complete AAFCO definition." Brown Rice is a decent quality ingredient. Brown Rice is a high quality carbohydrate that is high in fiber.

    Rice:Rice is a decent quality ingredient. There should be at least one meat source listed before this ingredient. It’s a decent quality ingredient but shouldn’t be the main ingredient in dog food.

      I would like to know where I can purchase your natural ultramix weight management dry dog food now that pet smart no longer carries it except in the 6 poound bag. I live at least 40 miles from the closest pet smart and going to purchase this food 3-4 times each week is not going to happen. Please let me know where I can purchase it within a 100 mile radius of Savannah, GA. Thanks Dana Dalby
