Name: Bonacibo Puppy Can
Brand: Bonacibo

46.6/100Average

WetPuppy

A plain lamb-flavoured tin for a growing dog, sitting in our Average band. The recipe is 54% meat and animal derivatives, with lamb named at a minimum of 4% inside that share. What goes in is rich in protein and fat, but very little of it is named.

Our view

Likely to suit

Something soft and easy for a young mouth, at 81.0% declared moisture
Feeding by the tin, a 400g can being a tidy unit to portion from
Pups taking energy from fat, with carbohydrate estimated at nothing
Lamb in a growth food, named at a minimum of 4%

Worth watching

Unnamed animals behind the 54% share, so hard to place for a pup kept off a species
No calcium figure, though the tin is offered for every breed size

The score, in context

Bonacibo Puppy Can 46.6

All one Average. Typical wet food: Excellent.

The analysis is not the trouble; almost nothing in the tin is identified precisely enough for anyone outside the factory to check.

What's in it

Meat and animal derivatives54%A legal catch-all that gives away neither the animal nor the cut. Unverifiable from the outside, not proof of anything poor.
Lamb (within the above)min 4%The one animal the tin commits to, and a floor you can hold it to.
Cereals (rice)4% riceAmong the gentler grains for a young digestion.
Derivatives of vegetable originCould be almost any plant by-product, and free to change by batch.
Minerals

Vitamins A, D3 and E, with no calcium figure anywhere on the label.

No calcium figure printed. A large breed pup's growth plan needs that number from the maker.

Named ingredients

Meat and animal derivatives (54%, including minimum 4% Lamb), Cereals (4% Rice), Derivatives of vegetable origin, Minerals.
