My Pet Doctor Signature Tears Control
Editor ingredient insight
My Pet Doctor Signature Tears Control has rice, hydrolyzed salmon and salmon-and-tuna fish meal as its confirmed leading ingredients.
At 24% protein, 12% fat and 3,200 kcal/kg, it is a candidate for adults that tolerate rice and fish when seeking a lighter everyday food.
The complete panel remains unconfirmed, so it cannot be confidently recommended for chicken-free feeding or an elimination trial.
Assess the fish-based ingredients and nutrition rather than expecting tear-stain improvement from the product name.

03. CHOOSING FOR YOUR DOG
What to consider before feeding
Hydrolyzed Salmon, Fish Meal (Salmon, Tuna) supply animal protein, starting at ingredient 2. Rice supply carbohydrate energy. A carbohydrate source leads the list, a meaningful distinction when seeking a meat-led recipe.
Hydrolyzed ingredients appear alongside ordinary protein sources such as Fish Meal (Salmon, Tuna); this is not a hydrolyzed-only diet for investigating food reactions.
Across the registered ingredients, multiple protein sources appear, including salmon, tuna. Some protein sources are not fully identified, which limits choices that require excluding a specific protein.
What works well in this food
- Named animal ingredients appear after the first grain or starch source.
- Calorie density is on the lower side.
- Top ingredients do not show a prominent FDA-investigated non-hereditary DCM ingredient profile.
Check before feeding
- Refined carbohydrates lose fiber, vitamins, and minerals during processing, and mainly act as starch and energy sources. Because of that, our engine reads ingredient quality more conservatively than it would with whole grains.
- The first ingredient is still a grain or starch source, but named animal ingredients continue through the second and third positions. This is still not a meat-first recipe, yet it is not an especially weak animal-protein profile either.
- 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 lower. This is a candidate for reducing calories per gram. Fat is also lower, but a weight-management choice still needs fiber, portions and total daily calories including treats to be considered together. Comparable, but ingredient quality needs caution.
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
Disclosure depth remains the clearest trade-off here.
