Green Pantry Skin & Coat review

Name: Green Pantry Skin & Coat
Brand: Green Pantry

75.9/100Excellent

DryPuppyAdult

A grain-free chicken kibble that treats coat condition as a job for the whole recipe. It sits in our Excellent band. The 72% chicken comes with its split printed, the 28% dried share carries the protein, and zinc, the mineral skin leans on hardest, is chelated and dosed.

Our view

Likely to suit

A coat that has lost its shine, with linseed, nettle and seaweed behind the meat
Dogs that need chicken and nothing else
Fish-free homes: the omega support is plant based
A puppy and an adult fed from one bag

Worth watching

Chicken is nearly three quarters of the bowl, so not for a chicken-sensitive dog
No calcium figure, which makes it the safer pick for smaller breeds of puppy

The score, in context

Green Pantry Skin & Coat 75.9

All one Excellent. Typical dry food: Good.

Nothing flashy earns the gap over the typical dry food: a large declared meat share, a modest carbohydrate load and a fully dosed mineral panel simply add up.

What's in it

Chicken: freshly prepared chicken, dried chicken, chicken stock72% (42%, 28%, 2%)The fresh share loses most of its weight to water in the oven; the dried 28% carries the protein.
Sweet potato, potato9% eachThe binding. No grain anywhere.
Peas6%
LinseedThe omega source, in the plant form. Give a coat weeks, not days.
Alfalfa, apple, pumpkin, cranberry, tomato, carrotSeasoning; the recipe stands up without it.
Nettle, seaweedIn support of skin.
Celery seed, aniseed, horehound

Vitamins A, D3 and E, with zinc, iron, manganese and copper all chelated and dosed, and iodine as calcium iodate.

Listed for puppies, but calcium is not declared; large-breed growth needs that number.
