40.4/100Average

WetAdultSenior

A properly sauced pouch for mid-sized adults that lands in our Average band because its ingredient list says so little. Five of seven entries are legal headings. The figures that can be checked hold up, with fat generous at 28.4% of dry matter and one of the fuller feeding tables around.

Our view

Likely to suit

Medium sized adults, the build these pouches are portioned for
Fussy eaters who go for the gravy first
Dogs that need a richer bowl to hold condition
Owners who like to be told what to serve: the table runs from 695 grams at 11 kg to 1251 grams at 25 kg
Older dogs staying on the same dinner, as it is fed across adult and senior life

Worth watching

No animal and no grain is named, so a suspected allergy cannot be tested on it
Vegetable protein extracts put part of the protein down to an unnamed plant
Cereals sit second, and the grain can change between production runs
