Great Life Dr. E's Buffalo Limited Ingredient Grain-Free Dry Dog Food is hot extruded (which means it's processed under extreme heat and pressure) and made with feed grade ingredients, which are unfit for human consumption. It contains 31 synthetic additives (so it is not all-natural), it has 6 anti-nutrients including Lentils, Chickpeas, and Tapioca Starch (which may interfere with the absorption of essential nutrients), and it has 2 other sketchy ingredients, including Natural Flavors and Dried Tomato Pomace.

Warning Due to this being a grain-free food that contains legumes or potatoes this Great Life recipe may be implicated in the FDA's ongoing investigation into diet-related Dilated Cardiomyopathy (or DCM), a potentially fatal heart condition.
