46/100Average

WetAdult

Average band for a short, grain-free jelly tray whose analysis is better than its placing. Beef is the one animal named, at 4%, inside meat and animal derivatives, and those category names are what hold it back. Protein converts to 50.0% of dry matter.

Our view

Likely to suit

Dogs that hold out for jelly over pate or gravy
Beef-fed dogs. Beef is the one animal printed
Households that have dropped cereal, as no grain is named
A careful feeding plan: our estimate is 72 kcal per 100g
Every addition dosed on the label, which plenty of wet labels skip

Worth watching

Meat and animal derivatives behind the beef, so no elimination diet
Fish and fish derivatives with no species attached
A light tray, so a bigger dog gets through a fair amount

All one Average. Typical wet food: Excellent.

The placing comes down to how much of the recipe is described by category, since on the analysis alone this is a reasonable tray.
