Ingredient Review
Our review of Horizon Complete All Life Stages Dry Dog Food begins with a detailed look at the food’s ingredients.
The first ingredient is Chicken Meal. In pet food, chicken meal is often listed as a source of protein. Chicken meal is produced by baking and grinding chicken meat and skin. As a dry form of animal protein, it is most often found in kibble and treats.
The second ingredient is Whole Grain Barley. Whole grain barley is a cereal grain that has been minimally processed, so all nutrients remain intact. In pet food, whole grain barley serves as a source of carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals.
The third ingredient is Whole Grain Rye. Rye is a dark-colored cereal grain that has a lower gluten content than wheat. In pet food, whole grain rye can add flavor and color while providing bulk and acting as a source of carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals.
The fourth ingredient is Chicken. Chicken is meat from the domesticated bird of the same name. In pet food, chicken is used as a primary protein source.
The fifth ingredient is Whole Grain Oats. Whole grain oats have had their tough outer hulls removed before further processing into a coarse high-fiber substance, complete with nutritious bran. The whole grain oats in pet food are a source of carbohydrates, protein, vitamins, minerals to support your companion’s overall well-being.
When we analyzed the ingredients in Horizon Complete All Life Stages Dry Dog Food, we found that most of the protein is derived from meat based sources.

Nutritional Analysis
Your adult dog needs a balance of macro and micronutrients to thrive. A food formulated for adult maintenance or all life stages is made to meet these needs. While there can be a lot of variation in actual calorie density, adult dog foods are generally intended to provide for basic calorie needs of the average active dog. In addition to satisfying their energy needs, these foods provide the protein, fat, carbohydrates, fiber, and other nutrients your adult dog needs to survive. Again, not all adult foods are the same, so you may have to search around for the right fit for your dog.
