Cobbydog Kennel Mix review

Name: Cobbydog Kennel Mix
Brand: Cobbydog

34.3/100Average

DryPuppyAdult

A yard ration in the oldest sense, sold in a 20kg sack, and in our Average band. The label names no species and declares no percentages, and that silence is what holds it back. Underneath, protein converts to 26.1% of dry matter on a lean fat line, and the vitamin and mineral panel is thoroughly dosed.

Our view

Likely to suit

Working kennels and homes with several mouths to fill
Dogs that hold weight too easily: fat at 8.7% of dry matter
Medium and large breeds, the sizes the maker points it at
A plain biscuit mix that gets on with the job

Worth watching

Nothing on the list is named beyond its category, so a dog with a meat or cereal sensitivity has nothing to steer by
Listed for puppies, but a large-breed pup needs tighter calcium control than an all-ages ration shows
Salt added at 1.0%, worth knowing for a dog with heart trouble
