Lily's Kitchen Adult Chicken & Duck
Editor ingredient insight
Lily’s Kitchen Adult Chicken & Duck leads with chicken, duck, and chicken liver but also relies on sweet potatoes, peas, lentils, pea protein, and egg.
It is worth considering for moderate-calorie chicken/duck-tolerant adults, not for legume avoidance or high-protein goals.

03. CHOOSING FOR YOUR DOG
What to consider before feeding
42% Chicken & Duck: Fresh Chicken (31%), Freshly Prepared Duck (8%) supply animal protein at the start of the ingredient list. Chicken Liver (3%). Sweet Potatoes (29%) supply carbohydrate energy. The recipe combines animal protein sources with carbohydrate sources.
Pea Protein, Potato Protein supplement plant protein further down the list, after the first three ingredients. The crude-protein figure includes both animal and plant contributions. Flaxseed 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, egg. If a protein must be excluded, any of these sources can change the decision; the first ingredient alone does not make this a single-protein diet.
What works well in this food
- All top three ingredients are animal ingredients.
- Nutrient disclosure is broad enough to compare real numbers directly.
Check before feeding
- Processed plant protein appears after the top 3, so some protein support is still built into the label number.
- The top three are animal-led, but legumes repeat just below them in the early full ingredient list. Read this as a possible ingredient-splitting pattern rather than a clean top-three issue.
- Public data trust is usable, but it does not sit in the highest-trust tier.
When this food fits your dog
Among foods made the same way, protein is lower, 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
- Your dog already eats the listed animal and plant ingredients comfortably
- You want animal ingredients first without excluding plant ingredients
Choose another food first when
- You need to exclude a listed ingredient
- You need a verified animal-protein proportion, which ingredient order alone cannot provide
Plant-protein concentration remains the clearest trade-off here.
