BIXBI Liberty Dry Dog Food with Fresh Meat, 4 lbs, Ancient Grains, High Protein

This dry dog food comes in a 4 lb (1.81 kg) bag, and deboned beef is the first ingredient listed. The recipe lists 24% protein and includes ancient grains such as quinoa, oats and barley. The company states that its recipe provides full, balanced feeding for every breed and every stage of life, meaning one bag works for a puppy, a grown dog or an older one.

What the beef recipe brings to the bowl

Deboned beef heads the ingredient list, followed by oats, egg, sorghum and natural beef flavour. Deboned lamb and deboned goat also appear in the recipe. There is no chicken meal and no meat meal in the formula, which matters if you read ingredient panels closely and want a meal-free list.

The protein figure sits at 24%, and the kibble is dry, packed in a single 4 lb bag. Sorghum is named among the special ingredients, and it sits alongside the quinoa, oats and barley the brand groups as ancient grains.
