Feed Wise considers this a solid, well documented option for Open Farm Turkey & Salmon Hearty Stew Wet Dog Food, a gently cooked formula led by g.a.p. step 1 turkey, salmon broth and humanely raised dried whole egg. The manufacturer publishes a AAFCO nutritional adequacy statement, so it can be fed as a complete daily diet for adult maintenance. Supporting the rating, it is manufactured in United States and the facility standards on file include 100% traceable ingredients, Third party certified humane sourcing (G.A.P. / Certified Humane) and Ingredient level origin disclosure.

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.
Named animal protein first
G.A.P. Step 1 Turkey is a named animal ingredient in position 1.
Animal Prominence Index
Animal Prominence Index 75 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.
Liver
Liver is included.
Heart
No heart in the ingredient panel.
Other appropriate organs
No additional organ meats identified.
Whole egg
Humanely Raised Dried Whole Egg is included.
Named animal or marine fats
Named animal or marine fat sources: Salmon Broth, Wild-Caught Pacific Salmon.
Verified animal ingredient proportion
Manufacturer confirms 95 percent animal ingredients.
Plant protein disclosure
Concentrated plant protein is present: Pea Protein. The manufacturer does not publish its inclusion level or the animal versus plant share of the crude protein, so the contribution is not quantified. This is deducted once under Ingredient Quality and is not counted again here.
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
11 food ingredients assessed by quality tier with early positions weighted most heavily. 23 fortifying nutrients or preservatives excluded from the average.
Concentrated plant protein
Concentrated plant protein appears late in the panel at position 9: Pea Protein. The manufacturer does not publish its inclusion level or the animal versus plant protein share, so its contribution is not quantified. Scored once here and not repeated in other categories.
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.
Ingredient based plant load
Plant load assessed as HIGH. Carbohydrate bearing plant ingredients: Garbanzo Beans (Chickpeas) (whole pulse), Pea Protein (concentrated plant protein), Potatoes (starchy vegetable).
Pulse protein disclosure
A concentrated pulse protein is present. Its inclusion level is not published, so no share of the protein figure is asserted. It is deducted once under Ingredient Quality rather than a second time here.
Processing method: Canned. This category measures food integrity only. Raw handling safety is assessed separately under Safety and Quality Control, so a raw food can score well here and still lose safety points.

Recall context and corrective action

Unknown information is not treated as bad information. It is scored as unverified and it lowers the confidence rating instead.
