Flavour

Short lists with the meat at the front: 60% named meat in every tin, then a little vegetable, a prebiotic pair and a spoon of oil. Four of the five hold our Excellent band and the Game & Duck sits a step behind in Good. The Beef tin keeps to one animal the whole way down.

Our view

Likely to suit

Elimination diets. The Beef tin names one animal, with no unnamed fat, fish oil or hydrolysate
Owners who like the meat percentage printed
An unsettled gut, with MOS and FOS on all five
Rotation feeding, since only the animals change
Adult dogs of every build, fed from 1 kg to 50 kg

Worth watching

Salmon oil in the Chicken & Turkey and the Lamb & Beef
Game as a category in the Game & Duck, not a species
The botanicals at 0.01% each are a flourish, nothing like a working dose

One named animal, no unnamed fat, no fish oil and no hydrolysate: the cleanest tin here for an elimination diet.

Named ingredients

Beef 60%, carrot 2%, broccoli (dried) 0.5%, minerals, mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS), linseed oil, fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS), beetroot (dried) 0.13%, pear (dried) 0.08%, dried fennel 0.01%, dried caraway 0.01%, dried yarrow 0.01%, dried blackberry leaves 0.01%, dried mistle 0.01%, dried chamomile blossoms 0.01%, dried gentianroot 0.01%, dried centaury 0.01%

Against the range

Other animals on the label: None; Every other tin pairs two.
Fish oil: None; Salmon oil in the Chicken & Turkey and the Lamb & Beef.
Carbohydrate, dry matter: 5%; 4.1% to 15.4% across the five.

When one protein is the whole point, this is the tin.

Five tins, each declaring 60% named meat, with both figures printed where two animals share. Carrot or sweet potato at 2% is the biggest plant entry, MOS and FOS sit on every list, and a run of dried botanicals at 0.01% apiece closes each one.

Estimated carbohydrate runs from 4.1% to 15.4% of dry matter. What changes is the animal mix and the oil: linseed on four, salmon oil added on two, and no oil at all on the turkey and salmon tin.
