Large intact proteins are a primary source of digestive effort, and a major trigger for sensitive gut reactions. Hydrolysis during cooking pre-digests the protein before it ever reaches your dog's gut.
63% of all protein in this recipe arrives as di- and tri-peptides, absorbed directly through the gut wall via dedicated transporters. Over 82% sits below the 2 kDa threshold associated with reduced allergen risk.
Total fat: 19.4 g per 100g. Omega-6 to omega-3 ratio: 3.5:1. Values measured on the finished kibble.
