Husse Sensitive Weight Management Adult review

Name: Husse Sensitive Weight Management Adult
Brand: Husse

57.7/100Good

DryAdult

A slimming kibble on just thirteen entries, and it earns our Good band. Dried chicken comes first, so the protein you read about survived the oven. Protein reaches 28.3% of dry matter while fat stays at 10.3%, which is the whole trick of a weight recipe.

Our view

Likely to suit

Dogs on a weight plan, with L-carnitine at 300 mg per kilo and fat held to 9.5%
Owners who want a short ingredients list
An easily upset stomach. Inulin at 0.3% and brewer's yeast are there for the gut
Homes feeding a toy dog and a giant one

Worth watching

Salmon oil at 1% and dried eggs, so neither fish free nor egg free
No species on the animal fat or the hydrolysed animal protein, two entries a strict exclusion diet has to account for

The score, in context

Husse Sensitive Weight Management Adult 57.7

All one Good. Typical dry food: Good.

A dried meat at the front and protein held up while fat comes down carry it into the band most adult dry foods share.
