The range
Eighteen products in five ranges. Four of them are raw: Purely Minces and Minces With Veg with five products each, Beef Tripe Minces with four and Meat Blend Minces with two. Vale Pet Foods Complete holds the two dry recipes. Adult labels cover all eighteen, with twelve marked for puppies and seniors.
Ingredients
Beef is the most common protein, ahead of turkey, chicken, duck, venison and lamb. Everything is grain free and eleven products are single protein. The raw minces name no label extras, while the dry Complete recipes list linseed and omega 3.
Nutrition
The raw minces run from 14.4% to 21.5% protein as fed, with fat from 5.2% to 24.1% and energy of 124 to 328 kcal per 100g. The dry recipes are denser, 26% to 26.5% protein and around 360 to 367 kcal per 100g. Nutritional balance reads Outstanding on fifteen products.
Strengths

- Raw minces across every life stage
- Grain free throughout, eleven single protein
Limitations

Where it is less of a fit
- If you want wet or fresh food, check the formats, as this catalogue is raw with two dry recipes
- If you want the dry food to read like the raw, check the Complete range, which sits at Good
- If transparency leads your choice, check that pillar, since it reads Excellent on fifteen products and Outstanding on three
