Bosch Sensitive review
51.8/100Good
DryAdult
Bosch Sensitive pairs rice with a concentrated lamb protein for dogs whose stomachs complain about richer bowls. Rice leads at 37.5% with lamb protein at 20% behind it, digestion gets deliberate support from beet pulp, prebiotic yeast and chicory, and there are quiet extras like green-lipped mussel and fish oil. On our scale it sits in the Good band, level with the typical adult dry food, and the reading comes down to construction choices rather than anything unsettling on the label.

Our view
Likely to suit
If your dog greets new foods with a rumbling stomach, this recipe keeps things deliberately plain.
- Dogs with touchy digestion, the audience the whole recipe is arranged around, from the rice base to the prebiotic yeast
- Dogs stepping away from the common poultry meats, since lamb is the only meat protein named on the list
- Owners feeding mixed sizes from one bag, with the label covering builds from toy to giant
- Dogs starting to stiffen up, with green-lipped mussel extract plus omega 3s from fish oil and linseed in support
Worth watching
Check these points against your own dog before you commit to the big bag.
- Poultry fat and fish oil both appear behind the lamb, so a strict elimination trial cannot treat this as a lamb-only food
- Rice at 37.5% comfortably outweighs the lamb protein at 20%, so the bowl is grain-led
- Crude ash comes to 8.9% of dry matter, at the higher end for a kibble

The score, in context
This one finishes in our Good band, right alongside the typical adult dry food. Construction is what holds it there. Rice leads the list ahead of the meat, the lamb arrives as an extracted protein and not whole meat, and a hydrolysate and a fat go unnamed to species. Set against what it is for, a gentle, consistent bowl for a sensitive dog that suits lamb and rice, those same plain choices are much of the appeal.

_(the page labels this "Additives (per kg)")_: - **Nutritional additives:** Vitamin A (12,000 IU), vitamin D3 (1,200 IU), vitamin E (70mg), zinc [as zinc oxide] (70mg), zinc [as zinc chelate of amino acids, hydrate] (75mg), copper [as copper(II) sulphate, pentahydrate] (10mg), iodine [as calcium iodate, anhydrous] (2mg), selenium [as sodium selenite] (0.2mg). - **Technological additives:** Antioxidants.
Ingredient notes
Rice does the heavy lifting at 37.5%, the classic gentle starch for delicate stomachs, and carbohydrate lands at an estimated 48.7% of dry matter, close to the 46.2% typical for an adult dry food.
The lamb comes as lamb protein at 20%, a concentrated fraction rather than fresh or dried meat. It is an efficient way to get protein to 24.5% of dry matter, though rice protein and potato protein help it along, so a fair share of the total is plant-derived.
The sensitive brief is served well down the list: desugared beet pulp for steady stools, dried yeast carrying beta-glucans at 0.06% alongside mannan oligosaccharides at 0.1%, and dried chicory as a further prebiotic.
Skin and coat get linseed and fish oil, and green-lipped mussel extract at 0.1% adds its familiar joint support. The protein hydrolysate that boosts flavour names no source animal, and the poultry fat is pinned only to the bird family, the two entries that stop the label being fully traceable.
Calcium comes out at 1.52% of dry matter and the zinc arrives in two forms, 70mg as an oxide and 75mg as a chelate. The ash figure sits at the higher end for a kibble, worth a glance but not a worry in a healthy adult.
Price and value
£4.13 a kilo in a 15kg bag, with a twin pack sold alongside.
Using the standard maintenance estimate of about 840 kcal a day (110 × bodyweight^0.75), a 15kg adult dog in moderate condition needs around 225 grams, which is £0.93 a day. The label itself asks 205 grams for that dog, so treat both as starting points and feed to condition.
