In detail

Morrisons: the closer look

The range

Forty products across many small ranges. Chief is the biggest name, running meaty chunks in gravy and in jelly, pate trays, tasty chunks and a puppy line. Grain Free Complete trays and cans sit above it, and the dry side holds nine products. Adult is on 35 labels, puppy on 8 and senior on 7.

Ingredients

Chicken leads 34 of the 40 products and beef leads five. Twelve products are flagged grain free. Extras are thin on the labels: salmon oil and yucca on the grain free trays, linseed and a prebiotic on the Premium Natural dry food, chondroitin and glucosamine on the senior tray.

Nutrition

The wet food sits low on protein as fed, 6.0 to 8.5% on the Chief chunks in gravy and 10.0% on the grain free trays. The dry complete food reads 20.0 to 21.0% with 321 to 325 kcal per 100g. Nutritional balance is the strong pillar, Outstanding on 19 products.

Strengths

  • Nutritional balance Outstanding on 19 products
  • A wet range of 30 products
  • Grain free trays read Excellent

Limitations

  • Protein and processing reads Poor on 18
  • Seven products sit in our Poor band
  • Chicken leads almost the whole range

Where it is less of a fit

  • If you want stronger protein and processing reads, check the grain free lines, as they hold the Excellent bands here
  • If your dog needs a meat other than chicken, check the labels, since chicken leads 34 of the 40 products
  • If you want raw or fresh food, check the formats, as this catalogue is wet, dry and semi moist

Score overview

Nutritional balance is Outstanding on 19 products and pulls the average up. Protein and processing pulls the other way, Poor on 18 products and Average on 10, which is what keeps the brand in our Average band. The grain free trays read Excellent, the Chief chunks read Average and the dry complete food reads 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.
