87.2/100Outstanding

FreshPuppyAdult

A lean fresh pot that lives up to its name. Fat is declared at 5.2% against protein at 16.0%, a hard pairing to build in fresh food, and turkey breast does most of it. At 129 kcal per 100g, a day's feeding still fills a proper bowl.

Our view

Likely to suit

A waistline that has crept up, without simply halving the dinner
Turkey kept to turkey: breast and liver are the only meat entries
Seniors whose days have slowed, as the label covers them alongside puppies and adults
A dog that eats by volume and likes a full bowl
Fresh food without grain

Worth watching

A day's food is a lot of grams, so a small dog may do better with it split across meals
Scottish salmon oil puts fish on a turkey label
The chelated minerals sit on protein hydrolysates with no source stated, a loose thread for an exclusion feeder

All one Outstanding. Typical fresh food: Outstanding.
