Huntland Grain Free Adult: Deboned British Turkey review

Name: Huntland Grain Free Adult: Deboned British Turkey
Brand: Huntland

69.5/100Good

DryAdult

Flavour

A British grain-free range that keeps its construction simple and repeats it faithfully. The best feature is the meat split printed behind the 50% headline, which shows how much protein survives the oven. All three land in our Good band, level with the typical adult dry food.

Our view

Likely to suit

Dogs that get on better without cereal
Owners who like the fresh, dried and stock shares spelled out
Swapping between recipes, since only the animal changes
Gut support in the food: FOS and MOS in all three
Owners avoiding chicken, with no poultry in the lamb or the salmon

Worth watching

An unnamed omega 3 supplement in all three, so check fish with the maker
Pea protein lifts part of the protein figure in the lamb
Declared calcium runs from 1.46% of dry matter on the salmon to 2.62% on the lamb

The score, in context

Deboned British Turkey 69.5
British Grazing Lamb 69.3
Scottish Loch Salmon 68.8

All three Good. Typical dry food: Good.

The margins are so slim that the running order hardly matters, with the turkey fractionally ahead.

Named ingredients

Turkey 50% (includes 28% Freshly Prepared British Turkey, 20% Dried Turkey and 2% Turkey Stock), Sweet Potato, Peas, White Potato, Beet Pulp, Linseed, Omega 3 Supplement, Vegetable Stock, Cranberry, Naturally Derived Fructooligosaccharide, Naturally Derived Mannan Oligosaccharides, Vitamins and Minerals.

Against the range

Meat split: 28% fresh, 20% dried, 2% stock; 18% dried on the lamb, 12% on the salmon.
Calcium, dry matter: 1.76%; 2.62% on the lamb, 1.46% on the salmon.
Energy: 354 kcal per 100g; The same on the lamb; 320 on the salmon.

The most protein that survives the oven intact, and fractionally the best score of the three.

Each recipe declares half the bag as its headline animal and prints the split between freshly prepared meat, a dried portion and a stock. Sweet potato leads peas and white potato as the binders, with no grain in any of the three. Linseed, beet pulp, an unnamed omega 3 supplement and two prebiotics are shared, and the declared analysis is the same across the range. What changes is the animal, the size of the dried share, one small flourish each and the calcium.
