Cold pressedPuppyAdult

The Salubrious cold-pressed recipe for a dog carrying too much weight. Energy is held to an estimated 324 kcal per 100g against 351 for cold-pressed food generally, fibre is pushed to 5.0% of dry matter, and turkey still opens the list at 30%. A root-heavy base keeps it in our Good band.

Our view

Likely to suit

Dogs on a weight plan. Fibre helps a smaller portion feel like a proper meal
Owners who would sooner follow a chart: a gram figure for every weight from 5 kg to 70 kg
Fewer calories with named meat still leading, turkey at 30%
Grain-free homes, sweet potato and potato in place of cereal
Testing a fussy dog on diet food with the roughly 250 g sample

Worth watching

Fat at 11.0% of dry matter, so the saving comes mostly from portions and fibre
Salmon protein, salmon oil, goose fat and whole egg in a turkey recipe
Cane molasses adds a little sugar

The score, in context

Turkey 60.4

All one Good. Typical dry food: Good.

The name is doing honest work on energy and fibre, and a starch-led base is what keeps it from climbing higher.
