Flavour

Six flavours of classic raw feeding: bone-in meat, organs and tripe, and a vegetable garnish. Meat dominates every tub and carbohydrate barely registers. The whole range sits in our Outstanding band, and the choice comes down to which meat suits your dog.

Our view

Likely to suit

Raw feeders who want bone, organ meat and tripe doing the work
Adult dogs big and small
Rotation feeding. Six proteins share one construction
Multi-dog homes, with bulk orders up to 50kg of tubs
Dogs kept off grain; wheatgrass is a grass shoot, not a cereal

Worth watching

The usual raw routine: freezer space, defrosting ahead, clean bowls and surfaces
Beef organs and salmon oil in every tub, so a beef-reactive dog has no refuge in the range
Most labels print a percentage only for the headline meat

Named ingredients

Lamb with bone, Lamb Heart (total Lamb 80%), Tripe, Beef Liver & Kidney, Carrot, Butternut Squash, Green Vegetables, Blueberry, Salmon Oil, Kelp, Wheatgrass.

Against the range

Carbohydrate, dry matter: 9.0% estimated; Highest of the six, still a rounding error
Meat: 80%: bone-in lamb and lamb heart; 70% to 80% elsewhere
Protein, dry matter: 49.2%; Lowest of the six

Lamb's natural richness makes it a good shout for a dog that needs tempting.

Six tubs on one pattern: a named meat with bone leads, so the calcium arrives in the food itself, then tripe and beef kidney and liver behind it. A small garnish of carrot, butternut squash, green vegetables and blueberry follows, with salmon oil, kelp and wheatgrass at the tail.

Beef does the organ work in every flavour, and salmon oil puts fish in every tub. What varies is the lead animal and how much the label itemises: the Venison prints a percentage for everything, the rest only the headline meat. Carbohydrate never climbs past 9.0% of dry matter.
