Flavour

A small-breed pair meant to carry a dog from puppyhood to old age without changing bag. Both are grain free and energy dense, the way a small growing dog needs. The chicken is the richer at 32.0% protein and 20.0% fat and reaches our Excellent band; the lamb sits a step behind in Good.

Our view

Likely to suit

Small-breed puppies and juniors, with both recipes written for growth and the years after
One kitchen feeding a puppy and an older small dog from the same bag
Busy little dogs: 410 kcal per 100g in the chicken, 393 in the lamb
Homes without cereal. Peas and potato do the binding
Joint support in print, glucosamine at 650 mg/kg and chondroitin at 150 mg/kg

Worth watching

No calcium figure on a bag sold for growth. Ask the maker before feeding a fast-growing pup
Chicken oil at 11% in the lamb recipe too, so neither bag is chicken free
Fat at 20.0% and 18.0%, rich enough that a quiet small dog needs its portion kept honest

The details

Dog fit

Listed for small breeds from puppy to senior. A quiet 10kg dog is asked 113 grams a day on the lamb label; puppies eat well above that while growing, so follow the label and the ribs.

The score, in context

Chicken 70.7
Lamb Recipe 68.7

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

Dehydrated meat at the top and printed joint doses lift both; plant protein mid-list and the missing calcium figure hold them back.

What's in it

Dehydrated lamb meat, fresh lamb meat24%, 11%The dried share does most of the protein work.
Chicken oil11%Most of the fat, despite the lamb on the front.
Peas, potatoes
Lamb liver hydrolysate3%Keeps a fussy small mouth interested.
Carrots, pumpkin
Potato proteinPlant protein that raises the declared total without matching meat.
Yeast, beet pulp, salmon oil, linseed
Apples, blueberries, tomatoes, spinach, algaeAll named, none hidden behind a general term.
MOS, inulin (FOS), yucca, rosemary, parsley0.1% each (MOS, FOS)
Glucosamine, chondroitin650, 150 mg/kg

Taurine at 700mg, zinc at 150mg and vitamin E at 500mg, each on its own line.

No calcium figure on a label sold for growth. Ask the maker before feeding a fast-growing pup.

Chicken oil at 11% means this is not a chicken-free choice.

Named ingredients

Dehydrated lamb meat (24%), Fresh lamb meat (11%), Chicken oil (11%), Peas, Potatoes, Lamb liver hydrolysate (3%), Carrots, Pumpkin, Potato protein, Yeast, Beet pulp, Salmon Oil, Linseed, Mixed fruit (Apples and Blueberries), Mixed vegetables (Tomatoes and Spinach), Algae, Mannan-oligosaccharide (MOS 0.1%), Inulin (FOS 0.1%), Yucca schidigera, Rosemary, Parsley, Glucosamine 650 mg/kg, Chondroitin 150 mg/kg.

Against the range

Protein: 30.0%; 32.0% in the chicken
Energy: 393 kcal per 100g; 410 in the chicken
Fruit and vegetables: Seven named, from carrots to algae; None named in the chicken
Plant protein: Potato protein; Not on the chicken list

The gentler bowl of the two, for a small dog that does not burn as much.

Dehydrated meat opens both lists, with a fresh share behind it, so the label figure and the bowl are not far apart. Peas and potatoes carry the starch in place of cereal, beet pulp gives gentle fermentable fibre, linseed adds plant omega 3 and chicory and MOS feed the gut.

Glucosamine at 650 mg/kg and chondroitin at 150 mg/kg are printed on both, with taurine and each trace mineral on its own line. Chicken oil supplies the fat in both bags. Neither declares calcium. The chicken is the denser build; the lamb carries the fuller plate of fruit and vegetables.
