Lily's Kitchen Organic Trays Puppy review

Name: Lily's Kitchen Organic Trays Puppy
Brand: Lily's Kitchen

67.6/100Good

WetPuppy

An organic puppy tray where meat does nearly all the work: chicken at 28%, pork at 12%, beef at 10% and fish at 7%. Protein converts to 55.6% of dry matter. It sits in our Good band, and what stops it climbing is a label that leaves out the fish species and a calcium figure.

Our view

Likely to suit

Households buying organic. Every ingredient of substance carries the mark
Puppies that do well on a mixed meat bowl
Owners who want starch kept out, with the carbohydrate estimate at 0.0%
Pups who take on water through their food, at 82.0% declared moisture
A pup ready to try pork, which turns up in far fewer recipes than chicken or beef

Worth watching

No calcium figure, the number large and giant breed rearing turns on
Fish goes unnamed, so a pup avoiding one fish cannot be steered by this list
Four animals in one tray rules it out for an elimination diet

The score, in context

Lily's Kitchen Organic Trays Puppy 67.6

All one Good. Typical wet food: Excellent.

Good in a strong wet puppy field, held back by an unnamed fish and no calcium figure.

No calcium figure on the label. For a pup expected to finish large, ask Lily's Kitchen for it.

Named ingredients

Organic Chicken* (28%), Organic Pork* (12%), Organic Beef* (10%), Organic Fish* (7%), Organic Carrots* (2.8%), Organic Peas* (2.8%), Minerals, Organic Spirulina*. *Natural Ingredient.

Against the range

Four organic meats make up 57% of the tray by their declared shares, and almost nothing else is there: carrots and peas at 2.8% each, minerals and a pinch of spirulina. That build is why the carbohydrate estimate is 0.0%.
