Brit Care Dog Sustainable Adult Medium Breed review

Name: Brit Care Dog Sustainable Adult Medium Breed
Brand: Brit

70.6/100Excellent

DryAdult

A kibble that answers the protein question with chicken plus insect, and it sits in our Excellent band. The chicken arrives dehydrated and hydrolysed, so its 36% does more work than the number suggests. The back of the label is busy in the right way: a joint pair, prebiotic fibres and an inactivated probiotic, all with doses.

Our view

Likely to suit

Owners after lower-impact feeding without dropping a familiar meat
Medium-breed adults from 10kg to 25kg
Early joint support: glucosamine at 260 mg/kg and chondroitin sulphate at 200 mg/kg
Households that mind digestion. The prebiotics are dosed, not just mentioned
Dogs that suit a gentle grain, with oats named outright

Worth watching

Salmon oil at 2%, so fish is in the recipe
Oats at 30%. Not grain free
Insect is new to many dogs, and the insect species is not named

A named meat doing real work, a declared insect share and an extras list with doses lift it a band above the typical adult kibble.
