Feed Wise considers this a workable everyday option for Performatrin Ultra Limited Ingredient Kangaroo Recipe Small Bite Adult Dog Food, an extruded kibble formula led by fresh named meat. The manufacturer publishes a nutritional adequacy statement, so it can be fed as a complete daily diet for adult maintenance. Supporting the rating, it is manufactured in Canada and the label declares 24% crude protein.

1. Kangaroo
Tier A, exceptional food ingredient
Named Animal Protein
Named animal muscle meat. Highest value protein source in the FeedWise model.
2. Peas
Tier C, moderate or neutral ingredient
Whole Carbohydrate
Whole pea. A pulse carbohydrate and plant protein source.
3. Chickpeas
Tier C, moderate or neutral ingredient
Whole Carbohydrate
Whole chickpea. A pulse carbohydrate and plant protein source.
4. Dried Peas
Tier C, moderate or neutral ingredient
Whole Carbohydrate
Whole pea. A pulse carbohydrate and plant protein source.
5. Lentils
Tier C, moderate or neutral ingredient
Whole Carbohydrate
Whole carbohydrate source. Evaluated on position, quantity and combined plant load rather than treated as automatically poor.
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
Kangaroo is a named animal ingredient in position 1.
Animal Prominence Index
Animal Prominence Index 25 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
No liver in the ingredient panel.
Heart
No heart in the ingredient panel.
Other appropriate organs
No additional organ meats identified.
Whole egg
No meaningful egg inclusion.
Named animal or marine fats
Named animal or marine fat sources: Marine Microalgae Oil.
Verified animal ingredient proportion
The manufacturer has not published an animal ingredient percentage. Excluded from the score rather than counted against the product.
Plant protein dilution
Concentrated plant proteins detected: Pea Protein.
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
12 food ingredients assessed by quality tier with early positions weighted most heavily. 7 fortifying nutrients or preservatives excluded from the average.
Ingredient splitting
Multiple fractions of the same core ingredient appear: pea family (Peas, Chickpeas, Dried Peas, Pea Protein).
Prominent protein isolates
Protein concentrates appear from position 7: Pea Protein.
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 VERY HIGH. Carbohydrate bearing plant ingredients: Peas (whole pulse), Chickpeas (whole pulse), Dried Peas (whole pulse), Lentils (whole pulse), Pea Protein (concentrated plant protein).
Combined pulse load
5 pulse ingredients detected at positions 2, 3, 4, 5, 7: Peas, Chickpeas, Dried Peas, Lentils, Pea Protein. Together these represent a substantial plant contribution.
Pulse protein concentration
A concentrated pulse protein contributes materially to the protein figure.
Split plant fractions
Split plant fractions understate the true plant load in the ingredient order.
Processing method: Extruded. 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

A recall alone does not destroy a score. Severity, cause, frequency, recency and documented corrective action are all considered.
Unknown information is not treated as bad information. It is scored as unverified and it lowers the confidence rating instead.
