Rocketo Really Good Dog Food: Air Dried Turkey review

Name: Rocketo Really Good Dog Food: Air Dried Turkey
Brand: Rocketo

71.6/100Excellent

DryPuppyAdult

Flavour

Air dried, not baked, and one of the shortest complete recipes going: 85% meat and organs with a little coconut flour. All three sit in our Excellent band. Carbohydrate lands between 10.8% and 14.4% of dry matter, a long way under the 46.2% a typical bag carries.

Our view

Likely to suit

Dogs that do best on very little starch
Puppy, adult and senior on one label
Hungry, hard working dogs, at 440 to 450 kcal per 100g
Owners who value offal, with liver in all three
A dog that does better with some bulk, given the fibre

Worth watching

Cod liver oil in every recipe, so fish is in each
Fat at 30.6% to 33.3% of dry matter, so measure portions on a steadier dog
No added vitamins or minerals and no calcium figure, so the micronutrient side is taken on trust

The score, in context

Air Dried Beef 72.9
Air Dried Turkey 71.6
Air Dried Chicken 71.5

All three Excellent. Typical dry food: Good.

All three finish level, so pick by animal; the missing vitamin and mineral panel is what keeps them a step below the strongest foods.

Turkey (meat, liver, hearts)85%
Coconut flour5.3%

Carrots, apple, blueberry

The organic wording on the beef and chicken labels is missing from this ingredient list.

Named ingredients

Turkey 85% (meat, liver, hearts), coconut flour (5.3%), chia seeds, carrots, cod liver oil, apple, flaxseed, blueberry, coconut flakes, algae lime, yeast, parsley, alfalfa, seaweed, egg shell powder

Against the range

Fat, dry matter: 33.3%; 30.6% on the others
Carbohydrate: 10.8%; 11.2% and 14.4%

The richest of the set, with the least starch.

Three air dried recipes on one short list: 85% meat and organs, coconut flour at 5.3% as the only real starch, then chia, carrot, cod liver oil, apple, flaxseed and a few more whole foods. There is no vitamin or mineral premix; algae lime and egg shell powder supply calcium, seaweed iodine and liver much of the rest. Fibre runs high for a meat led food, 8.2% to 10.0% of dry matter.
