Nature’s Logic Canine Turkey Meal Feast Dry Dog Food
The first five ingredients are Turkey Meal, Millet, Turkey Fat (preserved with Mixed Tocopherols), Pumpkin Seed, Yeast Culture. 2 of them are a named animal protein. We put the starch at 31.9%, below the 38.51% average across the foods we hold.
High protein once the water is taken out, and a low share of the bag left over as starch.
How we got to 80
Five things, one hundred points, and the reason for every one. We would rather show our working than ask you to trust a number.
26-32% dm reads typical mainstream.

The numbers, without the water
Percentages on a bag include the water in the food, so a wet food always looks lower than a dry one. Taking the water out puts any two foods on the same footing. This one is 91% dry matter.
That is 6.6 points below average, so proportionally less of the bag is starch.

What those first ingredients actually are
The top of the list is most of the food by weight, so it is worth knowing what each one is. Green marks a named animal protein.
Turkey Meal
Turkey that has been cooked, dried and ground into a concentrated meal with most of the water removed.
Millet
The small round seed of the millet plant, a gluten-free cereal.
Yeast Culture
A dried yeast culture including the medium it was grown on, used as a natural source of B vitamins and fermentation products.
How much of this to feed
A starting point, worked out from the resting energy formula vets use and this food's own calorie density. Every dog is different, so watch their weight and adjust. Your vet's advice beats a calculator.

Recall history
Recalls are matched to the manufacturer, not this exact recipe. A recall on a different product still tells you something about the plant it came from.
We have not matched any FDA recall to Nature's Logic. We check the feed daily and this page updates when that changes.
