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.

Against the range

Fat: 16.0%; 9.0% on the rabbit.
Carbohydrate, dry matter: 40.8%; 49.0% on the rabbit.

The richer build of the two, savoury where the rabbit leans fruity.

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.
