Nourish
Nourish Complete Raw Puppy: Chicken review
One raw recipe doing one job, and it lands in our Outstanding band. Nothing on the label is unnamed, almost every entry has a percentage, and there is no cereal, filler or vague fat. Chicken leads at 80% with named ox organs behind it.
Our view
Likely to suit
- Puppies starting on raw, with one recipe to learn
- Owners who read panels closely. Nearly every entry is percentaged
- Pups of any eventual build, from toy to giant
- Growing dogs kept off cereal, with vegetables and flaxseed oil in its place
Worth watching
- No calcium figure, the one large and giant breed owners most want
- Freezer space, an overnight thaw in the fridge and a proper wash-up

Named ingredients
Against the range
Chicken at 80% carries the recipe, with ox heart, liver and kidney as the organ share, so beef is in the bowl too. Carrots, green leaf, butternut and kelp make up a short plant side, with flaxseed oil for the omega fats. There is no starch ingredient, so carbohydrate estimates at zero.
