Freeze-driedPuppyAdult

A single recipe doing one thing with real conviction: fresh duck at 85%, freeze dried and never cooked. Duck is the only meat and every entry is counted down to a quarter of a percent. If you have been circling raw feeding without wanting to rearrange your freezer around it, start here. It sits in our Outstanding band.

Our view

Likely to suit

Dogs that need one meat and one only
Exclusion diets, with nothing pooled into a category
Several ages fed from a single bag
Dogs kept clear of grain
Short on freezer room? The pack keeps in a cupboard until opened

Worth watching

Yoghurt on the list, worth checking twice for a dog that struggles with dairy
No calcium figure printed
The label's feeding table stops at 10kg, and small-looking portions are best weighed

The score, in context

Scrumpf Complete Freeze Dried Raw 86.4

All one Outstanding. Typical dry food: Good.

Holds the middle of a demanding field comfortably, and the tiny carbohydrate estimate is a good part of why.

What's in it

Fresh duck85%Counted before drying, so duck is even more of the bowl than the figure implies. Uncommon enough to be new to many dogs.
Fresh carrots, fresh courgette3% each
Fresh green beans, fresh pear2% each
Yoghurt1%Fermented dairy.
Bamboo fibre1%Inert bulk.
Chicory inulin, yeast products1% eachFood for the gut bacteria.
Dehydrated fruit blend0.25%Berries, acerola, pomegranate and grape seed extract, an antioxidant and a different thing from whole grapes.

Vitamins A, D3 and E, choline chloride, and copper, iron, iodine, selenium, zinc and manganese as sulphates, oxides and carbonates, with no chelates.

No calcium percentage is printed, so growth feeding leans on the maker's guidance.

Named ingredients

Fresh Duck (85%), Fresh Carrots (3%), Fresh Courgette (3%), Fresh Green Beans (2%), Fresh Pear (2%), Yoghurt (1%), Bamboo Fibre (1%), Chicory Inulin (1%), Yeast Products (1%), Dehydrated Fruit Blend (Strawberries, Blueberries, Blackberries, Cranberries, Acerola Cherry, Grape Seed Extract, Pomegranate) (0.25%)

Against the range

One recipe: fresh duck at 85%, freeze dried and never cooked, then carrots, courgette, green beans and pear, four functional entries at 1% each, and a fruit blend at a quarter of a percent. Duck is the only meat, there is no cereal, and every entry carries its own percentage.
