Cobbydog Premium Gluten Free review

Name: Cobbydog Premium Gluten Free
Brand: Cobbydog

47/100Average

DryAdult

A tidy, gluten free kibble that sits in our Average band for structural reasons, not sinister ones. White rice at 27% outranks the poultry meat meal at 26%, and the poultry is never pinned to a bird. Protein still converts to a healthy 26.1% of dry matter because meal is concentrated.

Our view

Likely to suit

Dogs that need wheat off the menu
Adults of any build, with a guide from 1kg toy breeds to dogs over 45kg
Owners who rate digestive comfort: beet pellets, a chicory prebiotic and yucca
Dogs that thrive on poultry and need no one named bird

Worth watching

No species behind the poultry meal, so the bird can change between batches and elimination work is out
Fish meal down the list, so not fish free
Rice above the meat, and the meat arrives entirely as meal

All one Average. Typical dry food: Good.

The analysis tells a friendlier story than the band, which follows how the recipe is ordered and described, not how it feeds.
