41.7/100Average

WetAdultSenior

Flavour

Single-serving gravy pouches in four flavours, all in our Average band on one shared analysis. The 40% animal share is printed, which is useful, but only 4% per meat is named. Nearly everything else sits under category terms that can change batch to batch with the label untouched.

Where to buy: coming soon

Live retailer links are coming soon. Once we have them from UK retailers, where to buy and the best price will appear here.

Our view

Likely to suit

Small and toy dogs. A 100g pouch is close to one meal, with nothing left to store
Owners who want the total animal share printed: 40% on every pouch
Dogs that eat better with gravy
Rotation feeding across four meats on one construction
Omega 3 from fish oil, named and quantified on every label

Worth watching

Only 4% tied to a named meat; the rest is meat and animal derivatives
Fish oil in all four, one to note in a fish-free household
Various sugars with no source or level

The score, in context

All four Average. Typical wet food: Excellent.

The analysis is reasonable and the carbohydrate sits close to the wet norm; the distance from the category middle comes almost entirely from what the labels decline to name.

What's in it

Meat and animal derivatives (including chicken)40%Chicken at 4%, the only animal printed. Others can sit in the remainder.
Derivatives of vegetable origin (including chicory)chicory 0.07%Almost anything processed from a plant. The chicory is a prebiotic.
Vegetables (including dried carrots and dried peas)1%
Minerals
Oils and fats (including fish oil)fish oil 0.14%Fish oil named for omega 3; the rest of the fat is unidentified.
Various sugarsNo source, no level.

A short panel: vitamin D3, vitamin E, zinc and iodine, each with a figure, and no copper or manganese.

Not a chicken-exclusive recipe: the derivatives entry can carry other animals.

Named ingredients

40% Meat and Animal Derivatives (Including 4% Chicken), Derivatives of Vegetable Origin (Including 0.07% Chicory), Vegetables (Including 1% Dried Carrots and Dried Peas), Minerals, Oils and Fats (Including 0.14% Fish Oil), Various Sugars.

Against the range

Named meat: Chicken, 4%; Beef, beef and lamb, or turkey on the others.
Vegetables: Dried carrots and peas, 1%; No vegetables entry on the beef and lamb.

The poultry pouch in a range that is otherwise mostly red meat.

All four share one construction and one analysis. Meat and animal derivatives is declared at 40%, with one or two meats named at 4% inside it. Then come derivatives of vegetable origin with chicory at 0.07%, minerals, oils and fats with fish oil at 0.14%, and various sugars.

Protein converts to 41.7% of dry matter and fat to 27.8%, with carbohydrate at an estimated 16.6%. What changes from pouch to pouch is the named meat and whether a small vegetables entry appears.
