Brand: JosiDog

25.8/100Poor

DryAdult

The plainest kibble in the range, and it makes no pretence otherwise. Fat is held to 8% and energy to 335 kcal per 100 grams, so it is a light everyday bowl for a settled adult with no dietary flags. It finishes in our Poor band because the label names categories throughout.

Our view

Likely to suit

Dogs who gain weight without trying
A large, steady-tempered adult that has never had a food disagree with it
Several dogs on one bag, toy breeds to giants
A lean regime under a vet's eye, where a low fat everyday kibble is the practical choice

Worth watching

Which animal and which grain went into the bag is anyone's guess, so an intolerance cannot be ruled in or out
Crude ash at 10.2% of dry matter, the higher end for a dry food
A hard-working or underweight dog will need generous portions with fat at 8%

The score, in context

JosiDog Economy 25.8

All one Poor. Typical dry food: Good.

Almost all of the distance to the typical dry food comes from the wording, while the plain figures make a workable adult profile.

What's in it

CerealsAny grain at all can sit behind the word.
Meat and animal derivativesThe fleshy parts and processing products of any warm-blooded land animal. No species given.
Vegetable by-productsJust as wide.
Oils and fats
Minerals

Zinc and copper as glycine chelates, taken up more easily than plain salts, with iron and the B group listed row by row.

No moisture figure on the label, so the dry matter numbers assume 8%.

Named ingredients

Cereals; meat and animal derivatives; vegetable by-products; oils and fats; minerals

Against the range

Four category terms and a mineral line make the whole list. Behind them sits a light, starch-led analysis and a vitamin and mineral pack printed dose by dose.
