This large-format bag (previously marketed under the name SAVOR Shredded Blend before Purina's rebrand to Complete Essentials) combines crunchy kibble pieces with tender shredded pieces in a single bite, using real chicken as the first ingredient to deliver concentrated animal protein for adult dogs. The recipe includes guaranteed live probiotics, a defining feature across Pro Plan's Complete Essentials range, intended to support consistent digestive function and a balanced gut microbiome over time rather than as a one-time additive. Beyond the protein and probiotic angle, the formula supplies vitamin A and omega-6 fatty acids to help maintain healthy skin and a glossy coat, addressing a common concern for dog owners dealing with dry skin or dull coats. At 35 lbs, this is one of the largest standard bag sizes Purina offers for this recipe, making it a cost-efficient option per pound for owners of larger dogs, multi-dog households, or anyone who prefers fewer, bulkier purchases over frequent small-bag restocking. According to the full ingredient panel, the recipe includes chicken, rice, poultry by-product meal, corn gluten meal, and beef fat preserved with mixed tocopherols (a natural preservative), along with a comprehensive package of minerals - including zinc, manganese, iron, copper, and selenium in proteinate or chelated forms - and a full spectrum of B-vitamins, vitamin A, D3, E, and K.
