Name: Cobbydog Immunity Impact Cold Pressed: Fish Supper with Plasma
Brand: Cobbydog

70/100Excellent

Cold pressedAdult

Flavour

Cobbydog's cold-pressed pellet with plasma added at 5%, and the plasma is the point. It is the protein fraction of blood once the cells are removed, used in weaning and recovery diets for the working proteins it carries. The Duck Dinner reaches our Outstanding band and the Fish Supper our Excellent band.

Our view

Likely to suit

Owners curious about plasma, declared at a proper 5%
Dogs that gulp. A pressed pellet breaks down in liquid instead of swelling
Duck-fed dogs: duck is the Duck Dinner's only named meat
Fish lovers, with four species itemised in the Fish Supper
Owners who want doses in front of them

Worth watching

No animal named for the plasma, so neither recipe suits a strict single-species plan
Fish oil in the Fish Supper
Keep the bag closed in a cool, dry bin: there is no hard extruded shell

The score, in context

Duck Dinner 81.5
Fish Supper 70.0

Two recipes across Outstanding and Excellent. Typical dry food: Good.

A genuine meat or fish share and figures against what matters keep both above the cold-pressed average; carbohydrate and the unnamed plasma source are what hold them back.

What's in it

Prepared and dried ground ocean fish: white fish, salmon, mackerel, herring48% (38.4%, 4.8%, 2.4%, 2.4%)A level of detail few fish recipes bother with.
Sweet potato32%
Peas, beet pulp5% each
Natural animal protein source (plasma)5%No species given, so this is not a fish-only recipe.
Fish oil1.7%The stronger source of long-chain omega 3.
Cold-pressed rapeseed oil1.7%
Vitamins and chelated minerals1.25%Chelates are generally absorbed more readily.
Turmeraid0.6%
Carrot, chicory, apple, kelp, fennel, nettle, sage, thyme, oregano

Named ingredients

Prepared and Dried Ground Ocean Fish 48% (White Fish 38.4%, Salmon 4.8%, Mackerel 2.4%, Herring 2.4%), Sweet Potato 32%, Peas 5%, Beet Pulp 5%, Natural Animal Protein Source (Plasma) 5%, Fish Oil 1.7%, Cold-Pressed Rapeseed Oil 1.7%, Vitamins and Chelated Minerals 1.25%, Turmeraid 0.6%, Vegetables (Carrot, Chicory), Fruits (Apple), Seaweed (Kelp), Fennel, Nettle, Herbs (Sage, Thyme, Oregano).

Against the range

Fish: Four species, 48%; Duck, 49%, on the Duck Dinner.
Fat, dry matter: 8.7%; 10.4% on the duck.
Fibre and ash, dry matter: 4.4% and 12.0%; Lower on the duck.
Band: Excellent; Outstanding on the duck.

The leaner of the pair, for a dog that does well on fish.

Both pellets follow the Cobbydog build: a named meat or fish at the front at 48% or 49%, sweet potato at 32%, peas and beet pulp at 5% each, then plasma at 5%. Two oils at 1.7% each, a vitamin panel with printed doses and a seasoning-level tail of vegetables, fruit, seaweed and herbs finish the list.

The plasma's animal is named on neither label. What varies is the headline protein, the oil (linseed on the duck, fish oil on the fish) and whether calcium is printed, which only the Duck Dinner does.
