Editor ingredient insight

ANF 6Free Plus Lamb & Rice is not a lamb-only food; it uses lamb, chicken, and duck in a mixed animal-protein base, followed by rice, chicken fat, hydrolyzed chicken, peas, chickpeas, lentils, sweet potato, and hydrolyzed salmon.

At 27% protein, 10% fat, and 3,600 kcal/kg, it is a practical moderate-fat daily food, not a clean lamb-only pick for dogs tracking chicken reactions.

Ingredient #1Upper

Animal Protein

Animal Protein combines multiple animal protein ingredients into one top-ingredient line. The named sources are visible, but their individual weight order versus the following rice or grain ingredients is not disclosed. It reads as an upper-tier protein source.

Ingredient #2Mid

Rice

Rice is a refined carbohydrate source. It usually reads as a starch and energy source rather than a protein driver. It reads as an mid-tier carb source.

Ingredient #3Upper

Chicken Fat

Chicken Fat is a named fat source. It supports energy density and fat quality more than protein quality. It reads as an upper-tier fat source.

03. CHOOSING FOR YOUR DOG

What to consider before feeding

Animal Protein supply animal protein at the start of the ingredient list. Rice, Sweet Potato supply carbohydrate energy. The recipe combines animal protein sources with carbohydrate sources.

Peas, Chickpeas contribute plant protein alongside carbohydrates and fiber further down the ingredient list. Total crude protein is not a measure of meat-derived protein alone. Chicken Fat add fat and energy; fat content is a separate choice criterion from the protein sources.

Across the registered ingredients, multiple protein sources appear, including chicken, duck. Some protein sources are not fully identified, which limits choices that require excluding a specific protein.

What works well in this food

  • Crude protein does not drop into a clearly low band.
  • Nutrient disclosure is broad enough to compare real numbers directly.

Check before feeding

  • Phosphorus is 1% on the label, at or above 1%. Senior dogs or dogs with kidney concerns should have phosphorus restriction reviewed with a veterinarian before using it as a staple food.
  • When multiple animal proteins are combined into one ingredient line, the lead slot can look meat-forward even though each rendered meal may not individually outrank the following rice or grain ingredients.
  • Whole plant protein sources can contribute to crude protein, so the animal-protein share still needs a closer read.

When this food fits your dog

Among foods made the same way, protein is typical, fat is lower, and calorie density is typical. Calorie density alone does not separate this into an active-dog or weight-management food. Consider protein exclusions and fat, then set portions for the dog’s weight and activity.

Consider it first when

  • Public-data-first comparison
  • Baseline shortlist building
  • Conservative first-pass screening

Choose another food first when

  • You want a stronger ingredient-quality story first
  • You need dog-specific fit instead of public-review screening

Plant-protein concentration remains the clearest trade-off here.

Smart chicken / duck alternatives

Exact protein-type matches come first, then close protein-family matches fill the comparison.

Final word

Interpret this for my dog

The food-first public score is only the starting point. Once your dog’s activity, weight goals, life stage, and health status are applied, the recommendation order and interpretation can change.

There is enough here to keep the food in comparison, but not enough to stop comparing yet.
