61.7/100Good

DryAdult

Flavour

Three Good grain-free kibbles you can read straight down, each with its meat named and its share printed. Taurine is dosed at 1000 mg per kilo on every label, more than an everyday kibble usually bothers with. The Superfoods blend is a gram or two per kilo of food.

Likely to suit

Owners who want the animal named with a share beside it
Dogs that do better without grain: sweet potato at 26% does cereal's job
A fish-free dog. The chicken recipe is the only one without fish
A taurine dose printed on the pack

Worth watching

Chicken in both the salmon and the turkey
Peas and beans supply part of the 23% or 24% protein

The score, in context

Salmon 62.1
Turkey 61.7
Chicken 60.8

All three Good. Typical dry food: Good.

Naming the animal and printing its share holds the range steady; the plant-heavy base and a fresh meat share given only as a minimum stop it climbing.

What's in it

Dried turkey22%A leaner bird than chicken.
Chicken fat, freshly prepared chicken4%, min 4%Chicken in a turkey recipe.
Sweet potato26%The largest single entry after the meat. Fibre and vitamin A with the energy, and steadier blood sugar than plain potato.
Potato, peas, beansBeans 8%Peas and beans add protein of their own.
Linseed3%
Beet pulp4%A touch more than the others.
Minerals
Rosemary, spinach, pomegranate, blueberries1500mg/kgThe Superfood blend: a gram or two per kilo, so the recipe does not stand or fall on it.
FOS, yeasts, seaweed1000mg/kg eachFOS is a genuine prebiotic; seaweed carries iodine.

Taurine at 1000 mg per kilo, selenium in the organic form only (the better absorbed of the two allowed), and zinc, iron, manganese, copper and iodine all dosed.

Chicken fat and fresh chicken sit in the meat block, so this does not keep a dog off chicken.

Named ingredients

30% Turkey & Chicken (Including, 22% Dried Turkey*, 4% Chicken Fat, min 4% Freshly Prepared Chicken), Sweet Potato (26%), Potato, Peas, Beans (8%), Linseed (3%), Beet Pulp (4%), Minerals, Superfood Botanical Blend: Rosemary, Spinach, Pomegranate & Blueberries (1500mg/kg), FOS (1000mg/kg), Yeasts (1000mg/kg), Seaweed (1000mg/kg)

Against the range

Protein, as declared: 24%; 23% on the other two.
Beet pulp: 4%; 3% on the others.
Linseed: 3%; 4% on the others.

The leaner bird, which is why gentler recipes reach for turkey.

Each recipe declares 30% meat and shows the parts, with a dried meat leading the block. Sweet potato at 26% is the biggest single entry after that, with potato, peas and beans behind it. Linseed and beet pulp sit at 3% to 4%, and the botanical blend that names the range is measured in milligrams per kilo.

The animals overlap: the salmon and the turkey both carry chicken. Moisture is not declared, so the dry matter figures assume 8%.
