In detail

Walker & Drake: the closer look

The range

Fourteen products, twelve cold-pressed and two wet. Small Bite and the standard Cold Pressed line hold three products each on chicken, duck and ocean fish. Small Breed and the puppy food hold two each, with the wet pair, a dual protein recipe and a working dog food. Five products are made for small breeds.

Ingredients

Chicken leads five products, with duck, ocean fish and turkey on three each. Eleven recipes are grain free and thirteen carry joint support, so glucosamine and chondroitin are on most labels. Salmon oil goes into the cold-pressed food and a prebiotic into the wet.

Nutrition

The cold-pressed recipes run 30.0 to 39.0% protein as fed with energy of 315 to 370 kcal per 100g. The wet food sits at 9.0% protein and 113 to 116 kcal per 100g. Protein and processing is the strong pillar, Excellent or better on eight products.

Strengths

  • Outstanding transparency on ten products
  • Joint support on thirteen recipes
  • Both wet recipes read Outstanding

Limitations

  • Nutritional balance reads Good on eleven products
  • Two wet products in the range
  • No dry kibble or raw food

Where it is less of a fit

  • If you want a large wet range, check the formats here, as two of the fourteen products are wet
  • If you want top nutritional balance, check that pillar, since it reads Good on eleven products
  • If you want a single-protein recipe, check the labels, as four of the fourteen are flagged single protein

Score overview

The Excellent band read comes from transparency, Outstanding on ten products, and from protein and processing, Excellent or better on eight. Value follows the same shape. Nutritional balance is the flat pillar, Good on eleven. The two wet recipes read Outstanding, the cold-pressed lines split between Excellent and Good, and the small breed pair reads Good.

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.
