While some are more wholesome than others, they are all free of the harmful animal fats and animal protein (casein / whey) found in dairy cheeses.

For best results, the diet should contain less than 1 % starch / carbs and should be made with animal protein and fat.

The average nutrient profile of what a cat would consume in the wild is 50 - 54 % animal protein, 22 - 26 % animal fat and less than 5 % carbohydrates.

As with protein, animal sources of fat are usually better for your dog than plant sources, and for the same reason.

Your dog needs no more than 5 % crude fiber in his diet and the carbohydrate content should be limited as well, giving preference to animal - based proteins and fats.

In general, the diet is formulated with cottage cheese and or tofu (as a source of protein), a source of starch such as boiled rice, a source of fat (animal fat is acceptable and is more palatable than vegetable fat), and a vitamin - mineral mixture to balance the diet.
