Stonebridge Turkey Limited is a limited-ingredient turkey formula with a short, auditable list. On the numbers it delivers 27% crude protein and 15% fat at 398 kcal per cup, which puts it in the middle band of the dry-food market for adult dogs.

Protein of 27% sits comfortably above the 22% minimum for adult maintenance and, for most house dogs, above the point where extra protein stops paying for itself. Fat at 15% is the variable that decides how much you feed: at 398 kcal per cup, a moderately active 25 kg dog needs roughly 3.27 cups a day, split across two meals.

Who it suits — and who should skip it

This formula is built for adult dogs that tolerate limited ingredient recipes. It is a sensible fit if your dog holds weight easily on moderate portions and has no history of food reactions.

  • Good fit: healthy dogs with no diagnosed food allergy and a body condition score of 4–5/9.
  • Think twice: dogs with a confirmed sensitivity to turkey — pick a novel protein instead.
  • Skip: puppies under 12 months unless the AAFCO statement explicitly covers growth.

If your dog has had ear infections, paw licking or intermittent loose stools, resolve that first with a vet-guided elimination trial. Changing bags to treat a suspected allergy usually just moves the problem.

Feeding and transition notes

Start from the bag chart and adjust weekly. As a reference point, a 10 kg adult on this food needs about 1.63 cups a day, a 25 kg adult about 3.27 cups, and a 40 kg adult roughly 4.77 cups.

Transition over seven days in 25% steps. Store the bag sealed, use it within six weeks of opening, and never top up old kibble with new — that is how stale fat at the bottom of the bin keeps getting fed.

Judge Stonebridge Turkey Limited by the numbers and your dog’s body condition, not by the front of the bag: 27% protein at $12.60/kg is mid-market, and the feeding math above tells you the real monthly cost.

Frequently asked questions

Is it suitable for puppies?
Only if the AAFCO statement covers growth or all life stages. This one is labelled for adult maintenance, so choose the puppy formula instead.
How much should I feed a 25 kg dog?
About 3.27 cups a day at 398 kcal per cup, split into two meals, then adjust by body condition after two weeks.
Is it worth the price?
At $12.60/kg the monthly cost for a 25 kg dog works out to roughly $11. It competes on protein density rather than marketing claims.
