Caboodle Superfood Puppy Dry Food: Turkey review

75.7/100Excellent

DryPuppy

Flavour

Three grain-free puppy kibbles with a 65% meat headline, all in our Excellent band. The back of each bag breaks that figure down instead of leaving it whole. The superfood blend gives the range its name, though it is a garnish more than a share of the bowl.

Where to buy: coming soon

Live retailer links are coming soon. Once we have them from UK retailers, where to buy and the best price will appear here.

Our view

Likely to suit

Puppies fed grain free
Owners who want the meat headline itemised
Rearing on one animal, which the beef and salmon bags keep to
Starting joint care early on the beef or salmon, with glucosamine and MSM at 178 mg/kg each
Gut support printed with doses across the range

Worth watching

Turkey and pork together in the turkey bag
No calcium on the turkey label, the figure that matters most for a big pup
A different superfood blend in each flavour, so read bag by bag if a vegetable has caused trouble

The score, in context

Beef 78.1

All three Excellent. Typical dry food: Good.

The three finish close together; the spread comes from the analysis panels, so the meat that suits your pup is a fair way to choose.

Named ingredients

65% Turkey & Pork (Freshly Prepared Free Range Turkey (35%), Dried Pork (23%), Turkey Fat (4.5%), Turkey Gravy (2.5%)), Sweet Potato, Beans, Beet Pulp, Dried Superfood Blend* (Including Parsley, Papaya, Nettle, Zucchini, Pumpkin), Minerals, Omega 3 Supplement, Fructooligosaccharides (175 mg/kg), Mannanoligosaccharides (50 mg/kg), Olive Extract (0.01%)

Against the range

Animals on the label: Turkey and pork; A single animal in the other two
Protein, as fed: 37.5%; 36.0% beef, 33.5% salmon
Moisture: Not declared; Declared on beef and salmon
Joint pack: None; On beef and salmon

Pork makes it a useful novel protein for a pup that has met chicken and beef too often.

Every bag declares 65% meat on the front and splits it on the back into fresh, dried, fat and gravy from the same animal. Sweet potato and beans do the binding, with beet pulp behind them and no cereal anywhere. FOS at 175 mg/kg and MOS at 50 mg/kg are printed on all three.

What varies is the animal, the dried superfood blend, the joint pack (beef and salmon only) and whether calcium and moisture are declared, which the turkey leaves off.
