34.7/100Average

DryPuppy

A growth kibble described almost entirely in category terms, sitting in our Average band. Chicken is named at 21% inside meat and animal derivatives, and 1% salmon oil is named inside the fats. The declared moisture of 28.0% is high for a kibble, so read the as-fed figures and not a conversion of them.

Our view

Likely to suit

Puppies of small and medium breeds, the sizes the chart is written around
Pups that like a fuller bowl, at an estimated 314 kcal per 100g
Owners who want a named omega 3 source, in the 1% salmon oil
One bag picked up with the weekly shopping

Worth watching

Cereals first with no grain named, so a pup kept off wheat or maize cannot be catered for
Only the 21% chicken is named among the animal material, and colours sit among the additives
No calcium figure printed on a food built for growing pups

The score, in context

Webbox Everyday Complete Dry Puppy 34.7

All one Average. Typical dry food: Good.

Nutritional balance reads Outstanding, but a label made of umbrella headings gives an owner very little to check, and that is what holds it down.

What's in it

CerealsCovers every grain there is, and can change batch to batch without the label changing.
Meat and animal derivatives21% chickenThe named chicken share is the most useful figure on the list; the rest is not described.
Oils and fats1% salmon oilMarine omega 3 for a growing brain and coat.
Vegetable protein extractsLift the protein figure, though plant protein does not match meat for a puppy.
Derivatives of vegetable origin
Minerals, vegetables, yeastsYeasts bring B vitamins and palatability.
Molluscs and crustaceans0.006% glucosamineA token gesture towards joints, well short of a dose expected to act.

Fully dosed: vitamins A, D3 and E, with zinc, iron, manganese, copper, iodine and selenium in sulphate and plain forms.

No calcium figure on the label. For a pup at the top of the medium range, ask Webbox for it.

Moisture is declared at 28.0%, well above a normal kibble, so dry matter comparisons with other foods are unreliable.
