Webbox Natural Dry Complete Adult: Chicken With Wholegrains & Vegetables review

Name: Webbox Natural Dry Complete Adult: Chicken With Wholegrains & Vegetables
Brand: Webbox

55.3/100Good

DryAdult

Flavour

A plain wholegrain kibble, put together tidily, and both flavours land in our Good band. The meat meal leads with its figure on show, 22% in the chicken and 27% in the turkey. For a dog that does well on straightforward food, there is nothing here to argue with.

Where to buy: coming soon

Live retailer links are coming soon. Once we have them from UK retailers, where to buy and the best price will appear here.

Our view

Likely to suit

Owners who want a named meat meal at the top of the list
Dogs that get on happily with grain
Multi-dog homes, since the label covers every size from toy to giant
A little gut support, with FOS and MOS both named
Rotating flavours. The chicken and the turkey follow the same pattern

Worth watching

Maize in both, for a dog kept off cereal grains
Meat is a bit more than a quarter of the recipe; plants carry the rest
The turkey brings in chicken, fish and an unnamed gravy, so pick the chicken for a single-animal diet

The score, in context

Turkey 56.8
Chicken 55.3

All two Good. Typical dry food: Good.

Both sit right where a mainstream wholegrain kibble should, with the turkey a nose ahead on its bigger meat meal.

Against the range

Other animals on the label: None; The turkey adds chicken fat, salmon oil and an unnamed gravy.
Meat meal: 22%; 27% turkey meal.
Cereal: Maize, oats at 18%, barley, brown rice; The turkey uses rice at 14%.
Moisture: Declared at 8.0%; Not declared on the turkey.

The bag to reach for while you work out which meat your dog agrees with.

Both bags are built the same way: one dried meat meal with its percentage printed, over a cereal base of maize and barley plus oats or rice. The meal is the useful form on a label, since the figure is close to what survives into the kibble. Carbohydrate runs from 45.6% to 47.9% of dry matter.

The same quiet tail closes both lists: linseed for plant omega 3, seaweed, FOS and MOS as prebiotics, yucca for stool odour. What varies is how many animals each bag carries. The chicken keeps to one; the turkey adds chicken fat, salmon oil and an unnamed gravy.
