Bob & Lush Puppy Wet review

Name: Bob & Lush Puppy Wet
Brand: Bob & Lush

80/100Outstanding

WetPuppy

Flavour

About as short an ingredients list as a growing dog is likely to meet, and the tinned form sits in our Outstanding band. Five entries, one animal, offal named and the growth calcium actually printed. The pouches carry the same recipe and land in Good, because their label publishes less.

Where to buy: coming soon

Live retailer links are coming soon. Once we have them from UK retailers, where to buy and the best price will appear here.

Our view

Likely to suit

Puppies kept to a single animal. Even the broth is lamb
Owners who like offal named, with heart, liver and tripe printed inside the 70%
Small and medium breed puppies, well served by the declared calcium
Topping up a dry diet with something wetter

Worth watching

Calcium at 1.67% of dry matter is above where large and giant breed growth plans usually aim
Rich at 33.3% fat in dry matter, so weigh portions for a settled pup
On the pouches, no additive panel and an estimated energy figure

The details

Dog fit

Listed for puppies of every size, but the calcium level suits small and medium pups best. For a pup expected to finish big, work that figure into the feeding plan first.

The score, in context

Bob & Lush Puppy Wet 80.0
Hypoallergenic 70% Lamb 56.6

Two recipes across Outstanding and Good. Typical wet food: Excellent.

The tins and pouches hold the same food, and the gap in score comes from what the pouch label leaves out.

What's in it

Lamb (meat, heart, liver, tripe)70%Each part named. Liver is dense in vitamin A, copper and B12; tripe is easy on a young stomach.
Lamb broth23%The moisture, from the same animal, with flavour and gelatine of its own.
Carrots5%Soluble fibre and beta carotene.
Minerals1%The growth package, with calcium printed.
Linseed oil1%The only added oil, for plant omega 3.

Vitamins A, D3 and E with zinc, manganese, iodine and selenium, printed in full.

Calcium at 1.67% of dry matter sits above the usual target for large and giant breed growth.

Named ingredients

Lamb 70% (Meat, Heart, Liver, Tripe), Lamb Broth (23%), Carrots (5%), Minerals (1%), Linseed Oil (1%).

Against the range

Format: Tins, 200g and 400g multipacks; The other form is a box of 100g pouches.
Energy: Declared, 144 kcal per 100g; Estimated at 116 on the pouches.
Additive panel: Printed in full; Not published on the pouches.

Same food, fuller label, and the better buy of the two formats.

One recipe in two formats. Lamb makes up 70% as meat, heart, liver and tripe, lamb broth another 23%, then carrots at 5% with minerals and linseed oil at 1% each. Lamb is the only animal, broth included. Calcium is declared at 1.67% of dry matter, and carbohydrate converts to just 6.7%. The tins print their additive panel and energy figure; the pouches print neither.
