Frozen raw nuggets for a growing dog that pour, not chop. Turkey muscle and beef offal split the top of the label equally, and with no bone in the list a printed mineral panel handles the calcium. It reaches our Outstanding band.

The score, in context

Turkey 87.6

All one Outstanding. Typical raw food: Outstanding.

Holding the middle of the raw puppy field takes a properly built label, and this one is.

What's in it

Turkey muscle meat43%
Beef tripe, kidney, liver43%A proper organ load, where much of the micronutrition sits.
Pumpkin, broccoli
ChicoryInulin, a soluble fibre for the gut bacteria.
Blueberry
KelpThe whole-food route to iodine.
Coconut oil, algae oilAlgae oil brings long-chain omega 3 without fish.
MineralsCalcium at 5415mg/kg with vitamins A, D3 and E. Copper appears twice under two codes, almost certainly a printing artefact.

Printed inline: calcium at 5415mg/kg, vitamin A at 6,500 IU and vitamin D3 at 650 IU, with iron, iodine, copper, manganese, zinc and selenium.

No calcium percentage in the analysis, the figure a large breed puppy owner would hold against growth guidance.
