"We are thrilled our Stews for Dogs were selected from over 2,000 submissions as Pet Innovation Awards' Dog Wet Food Product of the Year," expressed Michael Lopes, director of product development, in a company release.¹ "Natural Balance knows the importance of our Limited Ingredient recipes for pets with food sensitivities, and we are proud to have won this award for our newest Limited Ingredient product."

The Limited Ingredient Stews for Dogs include single animal protein from chicken, beef, or duck cooked in broth with vegetables. The cartons are easy to open to simplify daily feeding by tearing open, stirring, and serving a complete meal or pouring it over kibble.¹ The stews come in 3 flavors including chicken stew with carrots and green peas, beef stew with potatoes and pumpkin, and reserve duck stew with carrots and potatoes.

Nature Balance Pet Food’s Limited Ingredient recipes provide a complete and balanced diet with premium, single-source animal proteins. There are no added fillers, artificial colors, or flavors.¹

A benefit of incorporating a limited ingredient diet is that you know exactly what is in your dog's food and can avoid certain ingredients. These diets are especially ideal for pet's with food allergies as this is currently the only way to pinpoint which ingredient is causing their reaction.²
