Flavour

The brand's standard grain-free build, sized for little dogs, in chicken, lamb and salmon. The chicken and lamb sit in our Good band and the salmon goes a step further into Excellent. Each label splits the fresh meat from the dried, so you can see how much protein actually reaches the kibble.

Our view

Likely to suit

Small breed adults, the dogs it is sized and portioned for
Choosing between animals on one shared base
Grain-free feeding; sweet potato and peas bind all three
An unsettled gut, with beet fibre, FOS and MOS in every bag

Worth watching

Fish in all three, so none is fish free
The plant side gathered under vegetables, with only a few shares printed
Energy dense for small portions, so weigh rather than eyeball
