Feed Wise rates this below the standard we look for in this category for Purina Pro Plan Pro Plan FOCUS Adult Large Breed Chicken & Rice Entrée Chunks In Gravy Wet Dog Food, a gently cooked formula led by chicken, liver and turkey with a short, limited ingredient panel. The manufacturer publishes a AAFCO nutritional adequacy statement, so it can be fed as a complete daily diet for adult maintenance. Owners should note that it declares corn, wheat or soy and portions shown here are calculated from the calorie panel rather than a published chart.
Water Sufficient for Processing, Chicken, Liver, Wheat Gluten, Rice, Turkey, Meat By-Products, Corn Starch-Modified, Potassium Chloride, Calcium Phosphate, Added Colour, Salt, Vitamin E Supplement, L-Ascorbyl-2-Polyphosphate (Vitamin C), Calcium Carbonate, Zinc Sulphate, Choline Chloride, Ferrous Sulphate, Niacin (Vitamin B3), Thiamine Mononitrate (Vitamin B1), Copper Sulphate, Calcium Pantothenate (Vitamin B5), Manganese Sulphate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride (Vitamin B6), Vitamin B-12 Supplement, Riboflavin Supplement (Vitamin B2), Vitamin A Supplement, Folic Acid (Vitamin B9), Vitamin D3 Supplement, Potassium Iodide, Biotin (Vitamin B7), Sodium Selenite
1. Water Sufficient for Processing
Tier C, moderate or neutral ingredient
Water Sufficient For Processing
Water added for processing. It carries no nutrition and is excluded from ingredient quality.
2. Chicken
Tier A, exceptional food ingredient
Named Animal Protein
Named animal muscle meat. Highest value protein source in the FeedWise model.
3. Liver
Tier A, exceptional food ingredient
Organ Meat, Species Not Specified
Liver without a named species. Nutrient dense but the species is not identified.
4. Wheat Gluten
Tier E, major formulation concern
Concentrated Plant Protein
Concentrated plant protein. Raises the crude protein figure without contributing animal protein quality.
5. Rice
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
The first ingredient is Water Sufficient for Processing, which is not an animal protein.
Animal Prominence Index
Animal Prominence Index 43 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
No meaningful egg inclusion.
Named animal or marine fats
No named animal or marine fat identified.
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 disclosure
Concentrated plant protein is present: Wheat Gluten. 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
8 food ingredients assessed by quality tier with early positions weighted most heavily. 24 fortifying nutrients or preservatives excluded from the average.
Vague animal ingredients
Animal ingredients without an identified species: Meat By-Products.
Concentrated plant protein
Concentrated plant protein appears at position 4: Wheat Gluten. 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 VERY HIGH. Carbohydrate bearing plant ingredients: Wheat Gluten (concentrated plant protein), Rice (whole grain), Corn Starch-Modified (refined starch).
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.
