In detail

Lovejoys: the closer look

The range

Twenty two products, 12 wet and 10 dry. Original Wet Adult is the largest at six recipes, with Pure & Simple in both wet and dry, Original Dry Adult, and senior or light versions on each side. Puppy gets one wet recipe and one dry. Twenty labels name adult.

Ingredients

Chicken and turkey lead on six products each, with lamb behind them and salmon, ocean fish and duck on single recipes. Seventeen labels carry glucosamine and chondroitin for joints. Yucca appears on every range, alongside salmon oil, linseed, prebiotics and msm on the senior and light dry.

Nutrition

The wet recipes sit at about 7.0 to 10.5% protein as fed with energy of roughly 101 to 143 kcal per 100g. The dry runs 18.0 to 30.0% protein and 320 to 363 kcal per 100g. Nutritional balance reads Good most often and spans Outstanding to Poor across the catalogue.

Strengths

  • Outstanding transparency on every recipe
  • Joint support on 17 products
  • Wet and dry across every life stage

Limitations

  • Protein and processing reads Average on nine
  • Nutritional balance reads Poor on four
  • Seven products flagged grain free

Where it is less of a fit

  • If you want the dry to read like the wet, check protein and processing, as it reads Average on nine products
  • If you want raw or cold-pressed food, check the formats, as this range is wet and dry
  • If you want grain free throughout, check the labels, as seven products carry that flag

Score overview

Transparency carries the brand, Outstanding on all 22 recipes, and value reads Good or Excellent throughout. Protein and processing is the drag, Average on nine products. Nutritional balance runs from Outstanding on three down to Poor on four. The wet ranges read Excellent, the dry reads Good, and that split is the Good band average.

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.
