Skip if
You have a large dog that would need several cups per meal, since the small 3.5 oz size can get expensive and inconvenient at that volume.

Performance notes
The pate texture and small cup format make this easy to portion precisely, which works well for smaller dogs or as a controlled topper rather than a full meal for a large breed. Being grain free and preservative-free lines up with what many owners look for in a natural feeling wet food, though the smaller container size is a tradeoff for that convenience.
What buyers say
With 3,917 reviews at a 4.5 star average, this sits slightly below the top rated products in this group, but roughly 1,000 units bought in the past month still shows steady, ongoing demand for the format and price point.
This listing includes 18 total 3.5 oz cups, sold as a pack of 9 with a 2 count multiplier, across three rotating recipes in the Adventure Pack lineup.
Is this a good size for a large dog?
The 3.5 oz cups are on the smaller side, so a large dog would likely need multiple cups per meal, which can make this a more expensive and less convenient option compared to bigger cans for bigger dogs.
Is this formula grain free?
Yes, Nutrish Peak Protein is labeled grain free and high protein, positioned as part of the brand's higher protein product line.
