If you are feeding an unbalanced meal as 20% or less of his food, you don’t have to worry about it. If you are feeding it more often, you want bone to be between 10 and 20% of the diet. For something like chicken quarters, you might want to add in half again of boneless chicken, if you are going to give that every day, but leg quarters are pretty meaty, so it might be enough meat for the amount of bone.

As far as BDN, their claim that something from the guaranteed analysis is proprietary is illegal. The guaranteed analysis is required on the label by law and fermented veggies should not alter that. They would not reveal the most basic information, such as the calcium content of their food. They are far too shady for me to trust, especially as the majority of my dogs diet. As a meal once in a while, I wouldn’t worry at all, because as I said earlier in this post, if you are feeding 20% or less unbalanced food, it doesn’t matter.
