Purina’s Pro Plan formulates recipes by combining different ingredients that work well together for a dog’s health and prosperity. Each formula is curated to reap out the maximum benefits a meal can provide to a dog. The chicken and rice formula is the most simple and common recipe a dog can have to fulfill their dietary needs. Chicken is a rich source of protein which helps build muscle mass, repair tissues and keeps the body functioning. Rice is a fine source of carbohydrate that aids digestion. It also has iron, fiber, vitamin D and calcium which are essential to maintain hemoglobin levels. This particular recipe, Purina Pro Plan Adult Shredded Blend Chicken & Rice Formula Dry Dog Food combines tender meaty morsels with dry food.
