Eden 80/20 Medium Kibble: Fish Cuisine review

Name: Eden 80/20 Medium Kibble: Fish Cuisine
Brand: Eden

74/100Excellent

DryAdultSenior

Flavour

Three Excellent recipes on one grain-free build, each with a genuinely different set of animals: duck and game, fish only, or chicken with salmon and herring. Carbohydrate sits at roughly a quarter of dry matter. The supplements are printed as doses instead of hinted at on the front of the bag.

Our view

Likely to suit

Dogs that thrive on a meat heavy bowl
Rotating proteins without changing the recipe underneath
Dogs kept away from fish. Country Cuisine stays with duck, lamb, rabbit, venison and egg
Older dogs feeling their joints, with glucosamine and chondroitin dosed on all three
Seniors, as every label covers adult and senior feeding

Worth watching

Salmon and herring in both Original and Fish Cuisine
Original Cuisine names puppies, but take your vet's steer before a large breed pup grows on it
Rich and energy dense, so measure portions for a quieter dog

The details

Dog fit

Listed for adults and seniors of every size, and Original Cuisine for puppies too. Eden's guide asks 190 grams a day for a 15kg adult; measure it, as the food is dense.

The score, in context

Original Cuisine 78.3

All three Excellent. Typical dry food: Good.

Named animals at the top of every list and very little starch earn the placing, with Original Cuisine reading strongest of the three.

Against the range

Meat: Fish only; Poultry or game on the others.
Protein, dry matter: 46.7%; The highest; 37% on Country.
L-Carnitine: 960 mg; Not on the others.

The protein heavyweight, for a dog that does well on fish.

One grain-free construction carries three different animal sets. Eden prints both fresh and dried meat, and the dried entries carry more of the finished kibble than their place on the list suggests. Sweet potato, chickpeas and tapioca do the binding, with pea fibre for bulk, and carbohydrate stays near a quarter of dry matter.

Glucosamine, MSM and chondroitin carry exact doses on every label, trace minerals come as chelates, and a long tail of herbs finishes each recipe at trace level.
