Wagg: the closer look
The range
Eleven products across seven ranges, nine of them dry and two semi moist. Meaty Chunks, Meaty Goodness, Active Goodness and Kennel each hold two products, with single recipes for wheat free, senior and puppy feeding. Ten labels are adult, with one senior and one puppy.
Ingredients
Chicken leads six products and beef four. Linseed, omega 3 and yucca run across nearly every label. The senior recipe adds glucosamine, chondroitin and salmon oil for joints, and the puppy food carries salmon oil too. Eight products are flagged for weight management.
Nutrition
Protein as fed sits between 20.0% and 28.0%, with the puppy recipe at the top end. Fat runs from 7.5% to 11.0% and energy from 316 to 341 kcal per 100g. Nutritional balance reads Poor on ten products, and protein and processing is Average on seven.
Strengths
- Semi moist and dry in one range
- Transparency reads Excellent or Good on most
- The puppy recipe reads our Good band
Limitations
- Nutritional balance reads Poor on ten products
- Protein sits low across the range
- No wet or raw food
Where it is less of a fit
- If you want strong nutritional balance, check that pillar first, as it reads Poor on ten of the eleven products
- If you want high protein, check the figures, since most recipes sit at 20.0% protein as fed
- If your dog needs wet or raw, check the formats first: the range is dry, with two semi moist recipes
Score overview
