In detail

Celtic Connection: the closer look

The range

Seven products in two lines. The kibble line holds four recipes and the wet line holds three. Every label covers puppy, adult and senior, so one recipe can follow a dog through its life. Chicken and lamb each appear twice, with duck, salmon and turkey once each.

Ingredients

Chicken and lamb lead on two products each, and duck, salmon and turkey take one each. All seven recipes are grain free. Every label carries glucosamine, chondroitin and MSM for joints, with linseed and yucca on the kibble.

Nutrition

Protein as fed is around 10.1% to 10.4% on the wet food and 26.5% to 32.5% on the kibble, with energy from 114 to 385 kcal per 100g. Nutritional balance is Outstanding on three products, and it is the pillar that varies most here.

Strengths

  • Every label covers all three life stages
  • Grain free across all seven products
  • Outstanding transparency on every recipe

Limitations

  • A small range of seven products
  • Protein and processing reads Good on four
  • One kibble recipe reads a band below

Where it is less of a fit

  • If you want a wide choice of recipes, check the counts, as this brand holds seven products
  • If you want raw or cold-pressed food, check the formats, since these are dry and wet
  • If nutritional balance is your first read, check that pillar, as it drops to Average on one recipe

Score overview

Transparency is Outstanding on all seven products and value reads Excellent on six, which puts the brand in our Excellent band. The wet food reads Excellent across its three recipes. The kibble is more mixed, Excellent on three and Good on one, and nutritional balance falls to Average on a single product.

The average score is the mean of each product's overall score out of 100 (using the best-scoring variety per product), not a flat average across every variety.
