Our view

Likely to suit

Dogs that do well on plenty of protein. It converts to 51.3% of dry matter
Owners who want the cuts named, each with its own percentage
Chicken-loving dogs with no other animal to avoid
Grain-avoiding homes, as the starch comes from pumpkin and potatoes
Dogs that like a big-looking bowl

Worth watching

Broth at 13% with no animal named, one entry an elimination trial cannot verify
Chicken is the meat most often behind an intolerance, simply because it is fed most
Andean salt and sesame seed low on the list

All one Outstanding. Typical wet food: Excellent.

Heart and stomach make up most of the meat, which pushes protein high for a tin and earns Outstanding on every pillar.

Against the range

One recipe: chicken at 57%, broken down into heart, stomach and muscle meat, with broth at 13%. Pumpkin, potato, sweet potato and tomato make up the plant side, and no cereal appears. A long tail of dried seasonings and minerals closes the list, with a short added panel of vitamins A and D3, copper, zinc and iodine.
