Questions and answers
- Which is better for a puppy?
- The Harvest Chicken kibble. Its label lists puppies (small and medium breed) as a life stage; the salmon kibble does not state a life stage.
- Which has more omega-3?
- The salmon kibble lists DHA at 0.11% and omega-3 at 0.4%. The chicken kibble publishes no fatty acid figures.
- Is the chicken formula worth the same price?
- Both 4lb bags are $22.00, so the choice comes down to protein and life stage, not cost. Pick chicken for puppies or small breeds, salmon for a fish-based diet.
- Which has better reviews?
- The salmon kibble rates 4.9 out of 5 from 3,728 ratings; the chicken rates 4.8 out of 5 from 504. Both are high, but the salmon has far more ratings behind it.
- Do either contain peas, potatoes or legumes?
- No. Both formulas are made without peas, potatoes and legumes and use grains such as oats, millet, quinoa and sorghum.
- How many calories are in each?
- Both list 425 kcal per cup, so portion sizes carry over if you switch between them.
