Flavour

The single-animal corner of the Henley range, and the name means exactly what it says. Each 500 g tray holds one species, meat, bone and offal, and nothing else. All six score alike, so the choice is which animal.

Our view

Likely to suit

A dog working through an exclusion diet, with one animal in the tray and nothing beside it
Owners hunting an uncommon meat. Pork and duck both come on their own
Rotation feeders who change one thing at a time
Dogs kept away from grain, starch and vegetables
Every build, from toy breeds to giants, on the same tray

Worth watching

Frozen trays that defrost in the fridge, with the usual care for hands and worktops
No calcium declared, so agree a growth plan with your vet for a large breed puppy
Richness varies more than the labels suggest, so a swap from Pork to Lamb means rethinking the portion

All six Outstanding. Typical raw food: Outstanding.

Six trays built to one formula finish level with one another, and holding that line in raw, the hardest company on our scale, says a lot about the build.

Against the range

Cuts: Ox, tripe, heart, bone, offal; Only the Lamb also itemises its cuts.
Fibre, dry matter: 11.8%; Easily the highest, from the tripe.
Protein, dry matter: 38.2%; Lowest of the six; the Pork reaches 63.3%.

The tripe tray, for a dog that needs coaxing to the bowl.

Every tray is one animal: meat at 80%, its bone at 10% and its offal at 10%, with no vegetable, cereal or premix. The Beef and the Lamb itemise their cuts, tripe and heart among them, and the animal stays the same throughout.

No calcium figure appears anywhere, though bone does the calcium work. What varies is the analysis: protein runs from 38.2% to 63.3% of dry matter and fat from 28.8% to 46.9%, and crude ash from 3.0% to 10.7%.
