Our view

Likely to suit

Small-breed adults, with a feeding curve from toy weights upwards
Reactive little dogs: one named meat, one gentle grain
Picky eaters, who tend to give in to a dense, meat-led kibble
Dogs that stay lean on a big appetite, with fat at 17% behind protein at 28%

Worth watching

Chicken fat, salmon oil and an unnamed flavour, so not for a strict elimination trial
A rich recipe; keep the scoop level for a less active dog

The score, in context

Brit Care Dog Hypoallergenic Adult Small Breed 68.7

All one Good. Typical dry food: Good.

Meat density does the talking, with carbohydrate held well under the typical adult kibble, and every pillar reads Good or better.
