Rocco Sensitive: Lamb & Rice review

WetAdultSenior

Flavour

Five wet recipes for dogs whose digestion is easily upset, each headed by its own animal: beef, chicken, duck, lamb and turkey. The panels read meat led, and the starch estimate stays modest on all five. With no ingredient list on any label, we leave the range without a score.

Our view

Likely to suit

Dogs with easily upset digestion, the group every recipe is built around
Rotation feeders. Five animals share one house style
Dinners that are mostly meat, with protein between 42.4% and 50.5% of dry matter
Older dogs, on the chicken or the lamb, both listed for seniors
A dog that never drinks enough: moisture is 79.0% to 80.0%
Big appetites, with an 800g size beside the 400g

Worth watching

No published ingredient list on any recipe, so none can anchor an elimination diet
Calories declared only on the Chicken & Potato, at 118 kcal per 100g; the rest are our estimates
Two names point to grain, Duck with Pasta and Lamb & Rice

The score, in context

None of these five recipes carries a score, and the reason is straightforward: not one of them publishes an ingredient list we can read. Our reading of a food leans heavily on what the label is willing to declare, and an analysis panel on its own is not enough to judge a recipe fairly. So we leave the verdict off.

What the panels do show is encouraging on its own terms. Protein converts to between 42.4% and 50.5% of dry matter across the range, and fat runs from 25.0% to 31.0%. The carbohydrate estimate stops between 8.0% and 13.2%, where the typical adult wet food runs at 15.8%. That is the shape of a meat forward recipe. It is simply not the same thing as being able to see the meat named.

What's in it

Every entry has a figure: vitamin D3 at 140 IU and vitamin E at 30 IU, then zinc at 20mg, copper at 2.3mg, manganese at 2mg and iodine at 0.5mg per kilo.

No ingredient list is published for this recipe, so the label lines are empty and the food goes unscored.

Against the range

Protein, dry matter: 42.4%; The most moderate of the five.
Fat, dry matter: 31.0%; Joint richest, level with the duck.
Life stage: Adult and senior; Shared only with the Chicken & Potato.

The pairing many owners reach for first after an unsettled week.

None of the five publishes an ingredient list, so the flavour name is all the recipe description there is. The panels are consistent. Moisture is 79.0% or 80.0%, protein runs between 42.4% and 50.5% of dry matter and fat from 25.0% to 31.0%. The carbohydrate estimate sits between 8.0% and 13.2%, under the 15.8% typical of adult wet food. The added vitamin and mineral panel is identical across the range.
