Brand: Feelwell's

78.4/100Excellent

WetPuppyAdult

Flavour

Two trays with one of the shortest lists on the wet shelf, both in our Excellent band. Freshly prepared lamb at 94% or venison at 95%, one plant, an oil and minerals, and that is the recipe. Nutritional balance and transparency read Outstanding on both.

Where to buy: coming soon

Live retailer links are coming soon. Once we have them from UK retailers, where to buy and the best price will appear here.

Our view

Likely to suit

Elimination diets, with one animal and one plant per tray
Owners who check every ingredient: there are four to read
Dogs trying venison, which very few British foods put in a tray
Toy and small dogs, as a 150g tray matches a small appetite
Older dogs with tired teeth

Worth watching

Vegetable oil with no plant named, the one loose term on a precise label
No fish oil in either tray, if you want marine omega 3s
Small trays, so a big dog needs several at a meal

The score, in context

Lamb 78.4
Venison 74.0

All two Excellent. Typical wet food: Excellent.

An animal share in the mid nineties and a fully dosed panel lift both trays, and the lamb sits a shade ahead, so the choice comes down to which meat suits your dog.

What's in it

Freshly prepared lamb94%Went in wet, not as a dried meal, and the share is printed.
Peas4.1%The one plant carrier.
Vegetable oilPlant not named. A small inclusion doing a job a named oil would do as well.
Minerals

Vitamins A and D3 and six trace elements, every one dosed, with cassia gum on the same panel as the thickener that sets the texture.

Freshly Prepared Lamb 94%, Peas 4.1%, Vegetable Oil, Minerals

Against the range

Meat: Lamb 94%; Venison 95% in the other tray
Protein, dry matter: 47.4%; 45.0% on the venison
Fat, as fed: 6.0%; 5.5% on the venison
Life stage: Puppies, adults and seniors; The venison is listed for adults and seniors

The tray to buy for a puppy, and the richer of the two.

Four entries on each label: one freshly prepared meat in the mid nineties, one plant carrier at 4.1%, a vegetable oil and minerals. The meat and the plant change between the two trays; the added panel, dosed line by line, is the same on both. Neither tray declares its calories or its calcium, so the energy figures are our estimates.
