In detail
Nulo: the closer look
The range
Seventeen products: nine dry, six wet and two freeze dried. Raw Medley and Baked & Coated are the kibble lines, each with adult, puppy and small breed versions. The wet side runs Land & Sea Pate, Savory Stew and a small breed line, two recipes each. Labels cover every stage.
Ingredients
Chicken is on 12 products, with beef on two and lamb, turkey and salmon on one each. Thirteen recipes are flagged grain free. Linseed and taurine run through the kibble and salmon oil through the wet food, and the freeze dried recipes add glucosamine, chondroitin and yucca.
Nutrition
The freeze dried raw is the dense end, 41 to 51% protein as fed with 431 to 502 kcal per 100g. The kibble sits near 30% protein and the wet trays near 10%, which is normal for those formats. Nutritional balance reads Outstanding on eight products and Good on nine.
Strengths
- Wet, dry and freeze dried formats
- Outstanding transparency on 16 products
- Every wet tray reads Outstanding
Limitations
- Chicken on 12 of 17 products
- Protein and processing Good on nine recipes
- No fresh or frozen raw
Where it is less of a fit
- If you want a wide protein choice, check the labels, as chicken leads on 12 products
- If you want fresh or frozen raw, check the formats, since the raw here is freeze dried
- If you want protein and processing to read high, check the kibble, where that pillar is Good on nine products
Score overview
Transparency and value carry the Excellent band, Outstanding on 16 and eight products. The eight products that read Outstanding overall are the wet trays and the freeze dried raw. Protein and processing is Good on nine recipes, which is where the kibble sits, and three products read Good overall.
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.
