Taste of the Wild: the closer look

The range

Nine products, eight dry and one wet. The adult range holds six recipes across buffalo, salmon, venison and lamb. Two puppy kibbles and a single beef tin complete it. Puppy labels appear on seven products, adult on seven and senior on five.

Ingredients

Salmon, lamb and beef each lead two products, with buffalo, venison and duck on one apiece. All nine recipes are grain free. Linseed, salmon oil, taurine and yucca appear on the kibble labels, and the tin lists linseed.

The kibble runs about 25.0% to 32.0% protein as fed, with energy of roughly 342 to 366 kcal per 100g. The tin is 7.5% protein and 77 kcal. Nutritional balance reads Good or better on seven recipes, while protein and processing sits at Average on six.

Strengths

  • Transparency Excellent or better throughout
  • Puppy, adult and senior labels covered

Limitations

  • Protein and processing Average on six recipes
  • One wet product in the range
  • A small catalogue of nine products

Where it is less of a fit

  • If wet food is the main meal, check the formats here, as one tin is the only wet product
  • If protein and processing is your first read, check it recipe by recipe, since six sit at Average
  • If you want a large catalogue, check the count here, as this is nine products

Score overview

Transparency sets the read, Excellent on seven recipes and Outstanding on two, and value is Good or better on all nine. Protein and processing is what holds the band, Average on six, which is common on kibble. One adult recipe reaches Excellent and the other eight products read Good.
