Flavour

The lighter, brothier side of Nulo's wet line, and both recipes land in our Excellent band. Fat sits at 3.0% as fed, so these are gentle pots with generous servings. The fish is named and numbered in each.

Our view

Likely to suit

Dogs kept on a lower fat diet, at 16.7% of dry matter
Owners who want protein leading the analysis: 55.6% of dry matter
Dogs that like a full bowl for the calories
A house with puppies and older dogs, as the stew is listed from puppyhood to old age
Eaters who prefer pieces they can see to a smooth pate

Worth watching

Salmon oil in both, so the mackerel pot still brings salmon
Quinoa is a seed, which is how the grain-free reading holds. A home excluding anything grain-like will want to know
At 82.0% moisture a bigger appetite works through the 170g pots quickly

Named ingredients

Chicken meat (53%), chicken broth, pumpkin, salmon (4%), salmon broth, sweet potato, coconut oil, minerals, quinoa, green beans, carrots, pea starch (0.5%), salmon oil, inulin, seaweed meal, dried parsley, linseed.

Against the range

Fish: Salmon, 4%, with salmon broth; Mackerel at the same share in the other pot
Analysis: Protein 55.6% of dry matter, fat 16.7%; Identical

The easier sell to a cautious eater, and the swap is purely about which fish your dog prefers.

Both pots open on chicken meat at 53% and chicken broth, then a named fish at 4% on a broth of its own: mackerel in one, salmon in the other. Pumpkin, sweet potato, green beans, carrots and quinoa give the stew its body, with pea starch at 0.5% holding it together.

Fat is low at 3.0% as fed, from coconut oil and salmon oil, which is why the pots read 77 kcal per 100g. The analysis is identical across the two; only the fish changes.
