Edgard & Cooper Puppy Tins review

Name: Edgard & Cooper Puppy Tins
Brand: Edgard & Cooper

79.1/100Excellent

WetPuppy

A chicken-led puppy tin in our Excellent band, with half its dry matter as protein and carbohydrate down at a tenth. Chicken at 50% and duck at 10% are the only animals, and pumpkin and peas at 2% each are the whole of the starch. The catch for big pups is that no calcium figure is printed.

Our view

Likely to suit

Puppies raised on poultry, with chicken and duck the only meats
Hearty eaters. 116 kcal per 100g runs ahead of the 106 typical of wet puppy food
Keeping grain out of the bowl, as pumpkin and peas are the only starch
Gut support on the label, with MOS and FOS both listed
A pup that takes in more water with dinner, at 76.0% moisture

Worth watching

No calcium figure, the number that matters most when rearing a large or giant breed
Salmon oil puts fish on the allergen picture
No doses for the prebiotics or the joint pair

The score, in context

Edgard & Cooper Puppy Tins 79.1

All one Excellent. Typical wet food: Excellent.

It clears the middle of a strong wet puppy field and stays in that field's band, which is the harder thing to do, on the back of an analysis built mostly from meat.

What's in it

Chicken50%Named outright, and the meat most puppies take to.
Duck10%A richer note behind it. Two birds, so not for a single-bird diet.
Pumpkin, peas2% eachThe whole of the starch, gentle on a young gut.
Minerals
Carrot0.5%
Salmon oilMarine omegas for brain and coat; no percentage given.
MOS, FOSPrebiotics feeding the gut bacteria, undosed.
Dried broccoli, banana, strawberry0.13% down to 0.05%
Glucosamine, chondroitin sulphateAn early nudge for joints, with no dose.
Fennel, caraway, yarrow, blackberry leaves and four more herbs0.01% eachSeasoning.

Vitamins D3 and E with zinc, copper, manganese and iodine, each dosed, and no technological additives at all.

No calcium figure anywhere on the tin. For a large or giant pup, ask the maker before committing.
