Ingredient Review
Our review of 4Legz Pumpkin Dog Treats begins with a detailed look at the food’s ingredients.
The first ingredient is Organic Rye Flour. Organic rye flour is made with rye grain that has been grown without chemical fertilizers, pesticides, or herbicides. Organic rye has a lower gluten content than wheat but it is not gluten-free. In pet food, organic rye flour adds flavor and color while providing bulk and acting as a source of carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals.
The second ingredient is Oat Flour. Cobalt glucoheptonate is a supplemental form of the trace mineral cobalt. In pet food, cobalt glucoheptonate can help support the synthesis of red blood cells.
The third ingredient is Organic Pumpkin Puree. Organic pumpkin puree is finely mashed flesh from organic pumpkins, which are a type of winter squash grown without chemical fertilizers, herbicides, or pesticides. High in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, it is also a good source of fiber. In pet food, organic pumpkin puree promotes healthy digestion while enhancing flavor and providing added nutrition.
The fourth ingredient is Canola Oil. Canola oil – also known as rapeseed oil – is a oil pressed from rapeseeds. In pet food, canola oil serves as an inexpensive source of fat, Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, and vitamins E and K.
The fifth ingredient is Ground Cinnamon. Ground cinnamon is a spice derived from the inner bark of Cinnamomum trees. In pet food, ground cinnamon is simply used as a natural flavoring agent.
After the fifth ingredient, the list includes all remaining ingredients. It’s worth noting that ingredients (other than nutritional supplements) located this far down on the list aren’t likely to have an impact on the overall rating of this 4Legz Pumpkin Dog Treats.
