Instinct by Nature's Variety Original Grain-Free Recipe with Real Chicken Dry Dog Food

Dog Food > Dry Dog Food > Instinct

Instinct by Nature's Variety Original Grain-Free Recipe with Real Chicken 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 20 synthetic additives (so it is not all-natural), it has 3 anti-nutrients including Peas, Chickpeas, and Tapioca (which may interfere with the absorption of essential nutrients), and it has 2 other sketchy ingredients, including Dried Tomato Pomace and Natural Flavor.

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