Flavour

One recipe in seven animals, five of them in our Excellent band and the lamb and turkey just behind in Good. Every label prints its meat as a fresh share and a dried share, so you can see how much survives the oven. The real choice is which animal suits your dog.

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.

Dogs off grain
Medium-sized adults, the dog the range is portioned for

Worth watching

Fish oil in all seven, beef and pork included
Most of the plant side sits under a vegetables heading, with only the main few given percentages

Against the range

Ash: 10%; The highest in the range.
Pea protein: On the list; Not in the other six.
Protein, dry matter: 28.8%; 27.7% to 32.1% across the seven.

The lowest scorer here, still in Good, with some of its protein from peas.

Six of the seven declare half the bag as one named animal, the chicken 55%, printed as a fresh share, a dried share and usually a digest named to the same animal. Sweet potato leads the starch at 22% to 26%, with peas and potato behind it and no grain anywhere.

Every recipe carries the same Digestive Care Pack, flaxseed and fish oil. Protein runs from 27.7% to 32.1% of dry matter and carbohydrate from 40.7% to 46.8%. The animal, a small fruit or herb note and the fat level are what change.
