Lily's Kitchen Wild Woodland Walk Duck Salmon Venison

Editor ingredient insight

Lily’s Kitchen Wild Woodland Walk leads with duck, salmon, and venison, then uses potatoes, pea protein, lentils, peas, and egg.

It is worth considering for dogs needing varied flavor at moderate calories, not for allergy troubleshooting.

03. CHOOSING FOR YOUR DOG

What to consider before feeding

35% Freshly Prepared: Duck (20%), Salmon (10%) supply animal protein at the start of the ingredient list. Venison (5%). Potatoes supply carbohydrate energy. The recipe combines animal protein sources with carbohydrate sources.

Pea 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 duck, salmon, egg, lamb. 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.
  • Top ingredients include an FDA-investigated non-hereditary DCM ingredient profile, so this part deserves a more cautious read.
  • 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 typical, 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.

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.

As a public review, this is a strong candidate to carry forward. The next question is whether it stays this strong for your own dog.
