McIntyres dog food review
Beef runs through McIntyres, on 14 of the 16 labels, and the food is mostly wet: pouches and cans against two dry recipes. The brand average sits in our Average band. Nutritional balance reads Outstanding on 12 products, which is the high point, while protein and processing reads Poor on eight and pulls the other way.

In detail
McIntyres: the closer look
The range
Sixteen products, 14 wet and two dry. Adult pouches come in gravy and in jelly, four recipes each, with four puppy pouches and two wet cans alongside. The dry side is two adult recipes, both flagged for weight management. Twelve labels name adult and four name puppy.
Ingredients
Beef leads 14 of the 16 products and chicken the other two. The labels carry no grain free or single protein flag. Weight management on the two dry products is the only flag in the catalogue.
Nutrition
The wet recipes sit at about 8.0 to 8.1% protein as fed with energy of 85 to 106 kcal per 100g, and the puppy pouches carry the higher fat at 7.0%. The dry is 21.0% protein and 316 kcal per 100g. Nutritional balance reads Outstanding on 12 products.
Strengths
- Nutritional balance Outstanding on 12 recipes
- Wet pouches in gravy and jelly
- Adult and puppy recipes both covered
Limitations
- Protein and processing reads Poor on eight
- The two dry recipes read Poor
- Beef on 14 of 16 products
Where it is less of a fit
- If you want the dry to match the wet, check those two recipes, as both read Poor
- If the protein choice matters to you, check the labels, as beef leads on 14 products
- If processing matters to you, check that pillar, as it reads Poor on eight products
Score overview

Transparency reads Good on most of the range. The wet pouches and cans read Average, and the two dry recipes read Poor.
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.
