Millies Wolfheart Turkey & Veg review

Name: Millies Wolfheart Turkey & Veg
Brand: Millies Wolfheart

77.3/100Excellent

DryPuppyAdult

A one-animal kibble done properly, well up in our Excellent band. Turkey fills the top two places, fresh and dried, and no other animal appears anywhere on the label. The starch load is unusually light for a kibble, and the joint pack comes with figures.

Where to buy: coming soon

Our view

Likely to suit

Exclusion diets, with turkey the only animal
Dogs kept away from fish. There is no fish oil or fish meal
Owners who want protein high, declared at 37%
Dogs that do better on less starch
Older dogs, with glucosamine, MSM and chondroitin all dosed

Worth watching

A turkey-sensitive dog has no second protein here
Calcium at 2.61% of dry matter, higher than a big-breed puppy wants
Mixed herbs is a heading, never spelled out

All one Excellent. Typical dry food: Good.

Two turkey entries in the top two places do the arithmetic, and there is nothing on the label you cannot put a species to.
