Our view

Likely to suit

A dog kept to one animal: Salmon, Lamb or Turkey and Veg
Seeing every animal quantified on the label
Grain-free homes, with sweet potato, parsnip and green beans carrying the starch
Stiff or ageing joints, glucosamine and chondroitin on every tin
Something beyond the butcher's list: goat, venison, rabbit, trout or tripe

Worth watching

Three or four animals in several tins, so only the single-animal three suit a food-trigger test
Salmon oil in the Gamekeeper, Highland, Riverside and Tracker
Rich fat throughout, reaching 48.0% of dry matter on the Turkey and Veg

Nine recipes across Outstanding and Excellent and Good. Typical wet food: Excellent.

Seven tins sit within a band of each other, and the two single-meat Veg recipes fall back on protein and processing, not on anything different in how they are made.

Against the range

Animals: Lamb only; One of three single-animal tins.
Carbohydrate, dry matter: 22.2%; The highest in the range; Turkey & Veg 1.6%.
Protein and processing: Poor; Excellent or Outstanding on seven tins.

A clean single-meat tin for a trial, with more of it given over to vegetables than most.

Nine grain-free tins on one construction: a large share of named meat or fish, each animal with its own percentage, then green beans, sweet potato, parsnip, carrot, apple and pear. Every label ends with parsley, sage, seaweed, glucosamine, chondroitin, cranberry and yucca, and five print a dose against the joint ingredients.

Fat runs rich, 28.0% to 48.0% of dry matter, with protein 33.3% to 44.0%. Carbohydrate moves from 1.6% to 22.2% depending on how much of the tin the vegetables take. The vitamin and trace panel is identical on all nine. Salmon oil is on four tins.
