Lamb

Lamb is a high quality meat source for dogs. It is highly palatable and easily digested by dogs. Red meats like lamb do however contain higher levels of trans-fats and cholesterol which should be kept to a minimum if your dog has a history of health problems. Red meats also contain higher levels of purines and other minerals (especially in the 'meal' form due to the higher bone content) which are best avoided in dogs with urinary conditions. As with all meats, the lamb used in dog food can come in a number of forms of varying quality and nutritional value.
