Edgard & Cooper Adult Cups: Game & Duck review

Name: Edgard & Cooper Adult Cups: Game & Duck
Brand: Edgard & Cooper

67/100Good

WetAdult

Flavour

Single-serve pots that come down to two named meats and very little else. The animals are printed to the percent on every label, and the list simply stops after a few vegetables and herbs. Four of the five sit in our Excellent band.

Our view

Likely to suit

Owners who want both animals named and counted
Dogs that eat better from a freshly opened pot than a half-used tin
Small dogs especially. The feeding guide runs from 1 kg to 10 kg
Households avoiding cereal: no grain on any of the five
Dogs that need to take in more water

Worth watching

No feeding guide above 10 kg, so bigger dogs need portions worked out
Game on the Game & Duck is a category, not one species
Light servings, so a medium or large dog goes through several pots a day

Five recipes across Excellent and Good. Typical wet food: Excellent.

One construction from pot to pot gives a narrow spread, with the Game & Duck a whisker behind the other four.

What's in it

Sweet potato, beetroot, cranberries, apple1% each
Parsley, dill0.1% each

Vitamin D3, with zinc as a sulphate, manganese as an oxide, copper and iodine, each dosed.

Game is not named to a species, so this pot does not suit a strict avoidance list.

Named ingredients

Game 30%, duck 26%, minerals, carrot 2%, sweet potato 1%, beetroot 1%, cranberries 1%, apple 1%, parsley 0.1%, dill 0.1%

Against the range

Meat: Game 30%, duck 26%; Every other pot names both animals.
Band: Good; Excellent on the other four.

The pot for variety, a whisker behind the rest on our scoring.

Every pot opens with two named animals that add up to 56%, with no unnamed meat, fat or hydrolysate on any label. A short run of produce follows, none above 2%, and parsley and dill at 0.1% close every list. No oil is added, so the fat comes from the meat. Moisture is declared at 82% and carbohydrate converts to an estimated 8.3% of dry matter.

Four pots share one additive panel with vitamin D3; the pot built on turkey and salmon uses chelated zinc and manganese and prints no vitamin D3.
