In detail
Skipper's: the closer look
The range
Six dry products, all adult apart from one puppy food. The Working Dog Food range holds two salmon recipes, and single recipes cover turkey, chicken, Ocean Feast and the grain-free Ocean Puppy. There is no breed-size split, and no wet, raw or cold-pressed food in the brand.
Ingredients
Salmon leads on four products, with one turkey recipe and one chicken. Five are grain free and three are single protein. Sweet potato names two of the recipes, and the labels carry linseed and omega 3 throughout, with glucosamine and chondroitin on the puppy food.
Nutrition
Protein as fed runs 22.0% to 27.0% across the six, with fat of 10.0% to 14.0% and energy of about 353 to 366 kcal per 100g. Protein and processing reads Good on three products and Average on three, and nutritional balance is Average on four.
Strengths
- Outstanding transparency on all six
- Grain free on five products
- Every product reads our Good band
Limitations
- Nutritional balance Average on four products
- Dry only, no wet or raw
- A small range of six products
Where it is less of a fit
- If you want wet or raw food, check the formats, since all six products are dry
- If you feed a senior dog, check the labels, as adult and puppy are the stages named
- If nutritional balance leads your choice, check that pillar, which reads Average on four products
Score overview
Every product lands in our Good band, so there is little spread from one recipe to the next. Transparency does the lifting, Outstanding on all six, and value reads Good throughout. Protein and processing and nutritional balance are the pillars that keep the band where it is, both reading Average on much of the range.
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.
