86.9/100Outstanding

RawAdult

One complete raw recipe, and almost all of it animal: chicken with bone at 55%, beef tripe at 15%, and a named organ set that brings the animal entries to 90%. No cereal and no synthetic premix. It earns our Outstanding band.

Our view

Likely to suit

Owners who want a short, readable list, six named animal entries and a handful of plants
Dogs happier without cereal
Raw feeders who value organ meats, each one named and percentaged
Dogs of any build, and multi-dog homes, with quantities running up to 50kg

Worth watching

Salmon oil in the recipe, so not for a fish-free dog
Beef and chicken both in the mince, so no exclusion trial on either
No calcium printed; the bone in the grind is trusted to supply it
