Flavour

A grain-free pair that shares a skeleton and then goes two ways, both in our Good band. The rabbit is a medium-breed food on one uncommon meat. The turkey is sized for small dogs and gathers several birds, with a little fish and egg on top.

Our view

Likely to suit

Dogs that react to the usual birds: every meat entry in the rabbit recipe is rabbit
Small dogs, as the turkey is built to a small-breed kibble and portion
Cereal-free bowls, with peas and potato doing the binding in both
Older dogs slowing down. The rabbit prints glucosamine at 900 mg/kg and chondroitin at 200 mg/kg
Watching the waistline: the rabbit is 9.0% fat, the turkey 16.0%

Worth watching

Chicken oil and fish oil on the rabbit label, so a strict elimination plan cannot rest on it
Duck, chicken, salmon and egg behind the turkey, the wrong choice for a one-bird dog
Pea protein and potato protein on both lists, lifting the declared total without doing what meat does
No moisture declared, so the dry-matter figures assume 8%

The details

Dog fit

The rabbit is listed for medium adults into their senior years, the turkey for small adults. The two labels' feeding guides differ a lot, so go by the shape of the dog.

The score, in context

Turkey Recipe 67.0
Rabbit Recipe 61.7

All two Good. Typical dry food: Good.

The dried meat at the top and the line-by-line panel carry both; plant protein in the middle stops them climbing, and the turkey's bundled birds add to that.

What's in it

Dehydrated rabbit meat26%Weighed dry, so the share holds through the oven. Rabbit is rare in dog food and new to many dogs.
Peas, potatoThe starch.
Fresh rabbit meat10%
Beet pulpGentle fibre.
Hydrolysed rabbit3%Keeps the animal side on one species.
Pea protein, yeast, linseed, potato proteinTwo plant proteins that lift the declared figure.
Chicken oil, fish oil2%, not givenPoultry and fish are not fully absent from this bag.
Apple, cranberry, tomato, spinach, carrot, pumpkin, seaweedA fuller fruit and vegetable plate than the turkey.
Inulin (FOS), MOS, minerals, yucca0.1% each for FOS and MOSPrebiotics; yucca for stool odour.
Glucosamine, chondroitin, rosemary, parsley900 mg/kg, 200 mg/kgReal joint doses.

Taurine at 850mg and L-carnitine at 250mg, with vitamins A, D3, E and C, zinc as the oxide and selenium as sodium selenite.

Chicken oil and fish oil appear, so it is not a single-species food for an elimination trial.

Against the range

Meat: Rabbit only: 26% dried, 10% fresh, 3% hydrolysed; Turkey, duck, chicken, salmon and egg.
Fat: 9.0%; 16.0% on the turkey.
Carbohydrate, dry matter: 49.0%; 40.8% on the turkey.
Joint doses: Printed; Named without a figure on the turkey.

The leaner of the pair and the one to try when the everyday meats have caused trouble.

Two grain-free kibbles on one skeleton. Both open with dehydrated meat, weighed with its water out, so the printed share is close to what reaches the finished food. Peas and potato do the binding, pea protein and potato protein sit in the middle, and linseed, beet pulp, FOS, MOS and yucca make up the support.

They part company on the animals. The rabbit stays on one species for its meat, though chicken oil and fish oil appear lower down; the turkey gathers duck, chicken, salmon and egg. Taurine is dosed on both.
