NutriSource Lamb Meal & Peas Formula Dry Dog Food

Details

Details

NutriSource’s Grain-Free Lamb Meal & Peas Formula is an all-life-stages dry dog food that features lamb sourced from the USA, Australia, and New Zealand and wild-caught salmon; lamb is rich in protein, vitamins, and minerals, and salmon provides an abundant source of anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids. Peas and garbanzo beans provide sources of protein, fiber, and low-glycemic carbohydrates; low-glycemic carbohydrates help to stabilize blood sugar levels and prevent excess weight gain. This diet, along with NutriSource’s Grain-Free Chicken & Peas diet, presents the formula with the highest levels of protein, fat, and calories in Nutrisource’s selection, making it a palatable, low-glycemic option for puppies and active adult dogs.
