Brand: Arden Grange

63.2/100Good

DryAdult

Arden Grange's working-dog fuel: the familiar chicken and rice construction turned up to 18% fat and 401 kcal per 100g. It sits in our Good band. The joint trio is properly dosed, and green tea extract and quercetin are there with recovery in mind.

Our view

Likely to suit

Working and sporting dogs that burn hard
High-mileage joints, with glucosamine and MSM at 370mg/kg and chondroitin at 260mg/kg
A dog that loses condition over a busy season. Concentrated energy keeps portions realistic
Kennels and multi-dog working homes

Worth watching

Weight gain in a dog whose main exercise is supervising the kitchen
Fish meal and krill, so no use for a fish-exclusion diet
Cereal-forward, with rice at 26% and maize close behind

The score, in context

Arden Grange Performance 63.2

All one Good. Typical dry food: Good.

The scoring sees a conventional cereal-and-meal build, and a band cannot see purpose: as a dense, dosed working ration it does what the name promises.
