Why it’s noted and sources
Added to reduce stool odour. The ASPCA lists the yucca plant as toxic to dogs, and in a dog study the extract raised a liver enzyme at 750 mg/kg of food, though not at 500. Labels rarely give the amount. We note it, but take no points off.

Allowed up to a legal maximum, none declared above it: copper, iron, manganese, vitamin A (retinyl acetate), vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol), zinc
