Our view

Likely to suit

Greying dogs still fed alongside adults; the label covers both
Seniors inclined to gain weight, with fat at 7.5%
Dogs kept off grain. Potato, sweet potato and pea do the binding
Older appetites that like turkey, a lighter bird than chicken

Worth watching

Poultry fat and 3% poultry protein with no bird named, so not a single-species recipe
Fish oil throughout, ruling out a fish-free bowl

The score, in context

Turkey 55.8

All one Good. Typical dry food: Good.

A fair result for a light recipe: trimming fat pushes the starch up, and the named turkey and dosed additive panel keep it mid-table.
