Salubrious Healthy Dog Food Cold-Pressed Grain and Gluten Free Gastrointestinal review

Name: Salubrious Healthy Dog Food Cold-Pressed Grain and Gluten Free Gastrointestinal
Brand: Salubrious Healthy Dog Food

63.4/100Good

Cold pressedPuppyAdult

A cold-pressed food for dogs whose digestion needs a steady hand, with a label that backs the pitch up. Turkey leads at 36% and the fibre package is the best thing about it. It lands in our Good band, level with typical cold-pressed food, and it is an everyday complete food and not a therapeutic diet.

The score, in context

Salubrious Healthy Dog Food Cold-Pressed Grain and Gluten Free Gastrointestinal 63.4

All one Good. Typical dry food: Good.

A solid turkey share and real fibre thinking earn Good, and the size of the root fraction gives some of it back.

What's in it

Turkey36%A solid share for the category; lean and easy to digest.
Sweet potato27%
Potato20%With the sweet potato, the reason carbohydrate climbs.
Salmon protein, whole egg5% eachFish and egg round out the amino acids.
Goose fat5%A second bird.
Beet pulp, cane molasses, psyllium husks and seedsFermentable and soluble fibre. The molasses adds a little sugar.
Brewer's yeast, vitamins and minerals, liver gravy
Prebiotic (inulin), alfalfa, salmon oil, sunflower oilInulin named plainly, no proprietary name.
Herbal blend: chicory root, parsley, thyme and nine more0.25%Character, not nutrition.
Glucosamine, green lipped mussel, chondroitin sulphate0.1%, 0.05%, 0.05%Printed properly.

Vitamins A, D3 and E only, the E as tocopherol extracts that also preserve the food.

Three animals and a fish in a turkey recipe, so it will not help leave a protein behind.
