Flavour

A two recipe range written to feed a whole household, puppy to senior, from one bag. The lamb builds on 24% dehydrated lamb and 11% fresh and reads Good. The Wild recipe piles three dehydrated birds together at 29% with fresh rabbit at 10%, and reaches Excellent.

Our view

Likely to suit

A puppy and an old dog eating side by side. Both recipes cover every life stage
Dogs that do better on red meat, with the lamb recipe leading on lamb
Hard working dogs, given the Wild recipe's 33.0% protein and 19.0% fat
No cereal in the bowl
Ageing dogs, with glucosamine and chondroitin printed on both labels

Worth watching

Duck, turkey and chicken share one 29% figure in the Wild recipe, and its poultry oil names no bird
Chicken oil at 11% in the lamb recipe too, so neither bag is free of chicken
No calcium on either label. Get it from the maker before a big breed puppy grows on this

The score, in context

Wild Recipe 70.9
Lamb Recipe 66.3

Two recipes across Excellent and Good. Typical dry food: Good.

The two sit closer than their bands suggest, with the gap opening on nutritional balance.

Against the range

Energy: 405 kcal per 100g; 385 on the lamb
Carbohydrate, dry matter: 33.1%; 40.2% on the lamb

The meatier, more energetic bag, at the cost of knowing which bird is which.

Both recipes start with dehydrated meat, then a starch from peas or potato, then an animal oil high enough to matter. No cereal appears in either. Beet pulp, yeast, potato protein, FOS and MOS and yucca sit behind the meat on both labels, and glucosamine at 650 mg/kg with chondroitin at 150 mg/kg is printed on each.

Taurine is dosed on both, and every trace mineral has its own figure, in oxide and sulphate forms. Neither label prints calcium or moisture.
