Expert Summary

Feed Wise considers this a solid, well documented option for Healthy Paws Pet Food Beef Neck Bone – Medium, a frozen raw formula with a short, limited ingredient panel. No nutritional adequacy statement is on record, so it is best used as part of a balanced feeding plan or rotation rather than as the sole diet. Owners should note that portions shown here are calculated from the calorie panel rather than a published chart.

Named Animal Protein

Named animal ingredient.

Animal Protein Quality

14.8 / 25

This is the largest single category in FeedWise. It looks at which animal ingredients are present, whether the species is named, whether organs, egg and named fats are included, and whether concentrated plant proteins are diluting the animal content.

Beef neck bone Guaranteed Analysis is a named animal ingredient in position 1.
+8 / 8
Animal Prominence Index
Animal Prominence Index 100 of 100. This is a FeedWise position-weighted measure of how far animal ingredients dominate the ingredient panel. It is a label-position index, not a manufacturer-disclosed recipe percentage.
+5 / 5
Liver
No liver in the ingredient panel.
0 / 2
Heart
No heart in the ingredient panel.
0 / 2
Other appropriate organs
No additional organ meats identified.

0

Ingredient Quality

20 / 20

Every ingredient is classified into a quality tier and weighted by its position on the label, so ingredient number one counts far more than ingredient number fifteen.

Position weighted ingredient quality
1 food ingredients assessed by quality tier with early positions weighted most heavily.
+20 / 20

Carbohydrate and Plant Load

15 / 15

Estimated carbohydrate: not calculable
Pulse ingredients detected: none
Plant protein concentrates: none
Ingredient splitting: not detected

Carbohydrate is not calculable because ash is not disclosed. It is left blank rather than overstated.

Carbohydrate burden
Carbohydrate is not precisely calculable because ash has not been disclosed. This is an evidence limitation, not evidence of high carbohydrate, so it is removed from the score and reported as reduced confidence.
NOT SCORED
Ingredient based plant load
Plant load assessed as VERY LOW. No grains, pulses, starches or concentrated plant proteins in the ingredient panel.
+8 / 8
