RawPuppy

Flavour

Three raw puppy tubs, all in our Outstanding band, built the same way with only the species changing. Every part of the animal is named and percentaged, from the muscle meat down to the kidney. Tripe and organ do the job a synthetic premix would otherwise cover.

Our view

Likely to suit

Puppy owners who want the whole bowl named
Growing dogs of every adult size, from toy to giant
Varying the animals early, on one shared construction
A puppy that does better away from poultry, on the pork and lamb tub

Worth watching

Freezer space, a fridge thaw, and bowls, boards and hands washed after every meal
No calcium figure on any label, worth asking for with a large breed puppy

Holding the top band across a beef, a pork and a poultry recipe with no tub pulling clear, so your puppy's taste and tolerance are the better guide.

Against the range

Animals on the label: Pork and lamb; The other two carry a bird and beef.
Ash, dry matter: 16.7%; The strongest bone signal; 8.6% and 12.9% elsewhere.
Energy: 118 kcal per 100g; The lightest of the three.

The tub to pick for a puppy kept off poultry and beef.

Every tub is 90% animal: muscle meat and a bone-in cut, green tripe at 20%, liver at 5% and kidney at 3%, each with a printed percentage. Calcium comes from ground bone, so no figure is printed. The other tenth is carrot, green vegetables and blueberry, with salmon oil and kelp closing every list.

No cereal and no premix anywhere. Carbohydrate estimates at zero in two tubs and 3.3% of dry matter in the turkey, while fat swings from 45.7% down to 25.8%.
