Rosie's Farm Single Meat Dry: Adult Turkey with Rice review

Name: Rosie's Farm Single Meat Dry: Adult Turkey with Rice
Brand: Rosie's Farm

55.3/100Good

DryAdult

Flavour

One named animal per recipe, with the dried and fresh shares printed separately, which few labels on this part of the shelf bother to do. Rice and peas share the starch work in near equal measure. Adult, light and senior run on one construction, and all five sit in our Good band.

Our view

Likely to suit

Owners after the meat split in black and white
Dogs that suit rice; brown and white rice carry the starch with green peas
A dog that needs to lose a little, on the Light turkey with its much lower fat
Older dogs. The Senior adds glucosamine, chondroitin and methylsulphonylmethane to the same base
One dog fed across the years on a shared construction and kibble

Worth watching

Chicken fat in the salmon recipe, the one variety with a second animal
Carbohydrate at 46.8% to 50.1% of dry matter, with protein gentle at 25.5% to 30.4%
Herbs listed as a group on most labels

All five Good. Typical dry food: Good.

A solidly ordinary range, credited for naming its animal and printing the split, and held mid-table by rice and peas taking three of the top four places.

What's in it

Turkey: dried, fresh28% (23% dried, 5% fresh)
Brown rice, white rice, green peas18% eachThree starch entries in the top four.

Dried chicoryInulin and FOS for the gut bacteria.
Dried carrots, broccoli, spinach, tomatoes, cranberries, blueberriesGenuine whole foods, a garnish this far down.
Dried herbs: Rosmarinus, Vitis, Curcuma, Citrus, SyzygiumNamed by genus, a small piece of plain speaking.

Vitamins A, D3 and E with iron, copper, zinc at 62.5mg, manganese and iodine as sulphates and iodate, and selenium as sodium selenite.

Named ingredients

Turkey (28%, of which 23% dried turkey and 5% fresh turkey meat), brown rice (18%), white rice (18%), green peas (18%), turkey fat (7%), vegetarian stock, dried beet pulp, dried apples, minerals, flax seed, dried chicory [a natural source of FOS and inulin], dried carrots, dried broccoli, dried spinach, dried tomatoes, dried cranberries, dried blueberries, dried herbs [Rosmarinus sp, Vitis sp, Curcuma sp, Citrus sp, Syzygium sp].

Against the range

Herbs: Named by genus; Grouped as herbs on the others.
Fat: Turkey fat at 7%; 3% on the Senior, none on the Light.

The everyday turkey recipe, and the one label that names its herbs.

Every recipe opens with one named animal and splits it into dried and fresh, the dried share much the larger. Brown rice, white rice and green peas follow at matching percentages, then beet pulp, linseed, dried chicory and a tail of dried fruit and vegetables.

What varies is the fat: lamb, turkey and senior use the recipe's own animal, the salmon uses chicken fat, and the light adds none. Minerals go in as sulphates, and no label declares moisture or calcium.
