72.3/100Excellent

DryAdult

Flavour

A grain-free range that keeps one recipe and swaps the animal, with all six bags in our Excellent band. Every one declares 65% named meat and prints how it splits between fresh and dried. Only the beef adds a joint pack.

Where to buy: coming soon

Live retailer links are coming soon. Once we have them from UK retailers, where to buy and the best price will appear here.

Our view

Likely to suit

Dogs better off without cereal
A plainly stated meat share, 65% on every bag
Rotation feeders. The six differ mainly in the animal
Dogs that need a lot from a small bowl: the turkey and pork reaches 44.0% protein on a dry matter basis

Worth watching

An omega 3 supplement with no named source on every bag, so none is promised fish free
Turkey and pork together in one recipe
High ash on the lamb and duck, at 13.0% and 10.3% of dry matter

Omega 3 supplement, minerals, vitaminsThe omega 3 source is never named.
FOS, MOS, olive extract192 and 48 mg/kg, then 0.01%Prebiotics dosed in print.

Vitamins A, D3 and E with zinc, iron, manganese, copper, iodine and selenium, each declared, as standard sulphate salts.

The omega 3 supplement has no named source, so this bag cannot be promised as fish free.

Against the range

Meat: Duck only; Chicken, beef, lamb, salmon, turkey and pork elsewhere
Ash, dry matter: 10.3%; Second highest, after the lamb
Carbohydrate, dry matter: 38.6%; Highest in the range

A change of scene for a dog tired of the everyday birds.

One construction with the animal changed inside it. Every bag declares 65% meat: 35% freshly prepared, a dried share of 22% to 25%, then the animal's own fat and a gravy or stock. Sweet potato and beans bind it, beet pulp supplies the fibre, and no cereal appears.

A dried superfood blend that changes with the meat, an unnamed omega 3 supplement and printed prebiotic doses run through all six. Protein converts to between 29.9% and 44.0% of dry matter and carbohydrate to between 20.7% and 38.6%.
