Flavour

Gently cooked food portioned by the day, with four recipes in our Outstanding band and Vinnie's in Excellent. What marks it out is the labelling: muscle meat, heart and liver each named, and a figure against every single entry. Five recipes cover beef, lamb, turkey and two fish bowls.

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

Owners who want muscle meat, heart and liver named separately
Dogs that eat soft, freshly cooked food far more willingly than kibble
Busy homes. Daily packs mean nothing to weigh
Grain-free feeding, as no label carries a cereal
Puppies, adults and seniors alike
A dog kept off land meat: Vinnie's is salmon and white fish only

Worth watching

Salmon oil in every recipe, so no fish-free bowl
Fridge or freezer space on delivery day
Chicken heart behind the headline birds in Tilly's and Sammy's
No calcium figure in the analysis, the one a large-breed owner should ask for

Five recipes across Outstanding and Excellent. Typical fresh food: Outstanding.

The spread between the five is slight, so your dog's protein history is a better guide than any ranking.

Against the range

Animals: Salmon and white fish only; Land meat on the other four

Carbohydrate, dry matter: 19.3%; Up to 36.9% on the lamb

A dog that reacts to poultry and to red meat has its bowl here.

Five gently cooked recipes on one construction: a named muscle meat, an equal or near equal share of heart, then liver in a smaller slot, followed by a spread of vegetables. Every entry on every label carries a figure, and none has a cereal.

A shared superfood mix closes each recipe, led by salmon oil at 1.1% with seaweed, turmeric, ginger, green lipped mussel and chia, so every bowl contains fish. Protein runs from 29.8% to 52.0% of dry matter across the five.
