Flavour

Five 400g tins, each led by one animal, with four in our Excellent band and the beef a step behind in Good. Wild boar and beef with venison sit beside chicken and lamb, so a dog that has run out of ordinary meats has somewhere to go. The vitamin panel is the thin part.

Where to buy: coming soon

Live retailer links are coming soon. Once we have them from UK retailers, where to buy and the best price will appear here.

Our view

Likely to suit

Dogs that do best on one animal. The chicken, lamb and wild boar tins each keep to a single named meat
A meat percentage printed up front
Dogs that have tried every ordinary meat, with wild boar and venison still left
Older joints: the lamb tin prints glucosamine at 0.09% and chondroitin sulphate at 0.03%
Rotation feeding on one construction
Dogs that need feeding up, on the energy-dense beef tin

Worth watching

The beef tin puts its 65% beef inside a meat and meat by-products heading, so the rest of the animal fraction has no species
No vitamin A or vitamin E line on any tin
Herbs listed as one unnamed group on the chicken tin
One size only, so a small dog leaves an opened tin to cover and chill

Five recipes across Excellent and Good. Typical wet food: Excellent.

Holding four tins level with a strong wet category is a real result, and the beef tin's labelling style is what keeps it a step behind.

What's in it

Meat and meat by-products (beef)65% beefBeef named inside a category heading; the rest of the animal fraction could be any species.
Vegetable (sweet potato)3%
Fruits (cranberry)2%
Minerals1%
Oil and fat (sunflower oil)0.7%
Turmeric, green tea extract, seaweed0.1% each

Vitamin D3 at 200 IU with zinc at 25mg and manganese at 1.4mg, and nothing else.

The by-products heading means this tin cannot anchor an elimination diet.

Named ingredients

Meat and Meat-by-products (65% Beef), Vegetable (3% Sweet Potato), Fruits (2% Cranberry), Minerals (1%), Oil and Fat (0.7% Sunflower Oil, Vegetable-by-products (0.1% Turmeric, 0.1% Green Tea Extract), Algae (0.1% Seaweed).

Against the range

Labelling: Category headings, beef named inside; The other four name each ingredient directly.
Energy: 126.6 kcal per 100g, our estimate; The richest tin; 92 on the wild boar.
Fat, dry matter: 34.6%; 23.6% on the chicken.

The tin for a dog that needs feeding up, held back by its label style.

Every tin opens on one headline animal, printed at between 50% and 66%, with a light scatter of vegetables, fruit and botanicals behind it. Dry-matter protein runs from 39.2% to 46.4%. All five are 400g tins of the same construction, so swapping the animal changes little else.

The added panel is short everywhere: vitamin D3 at 200 IU with zinc at 25mg and manganese at 1.4mg, and no vitamin A or E line on any label. Only the wild boar tin prints its calories; the rest are our estimate, from 92.2 to 126.6 kcal per 100g.
