Three chunk recipes for little dogs, sold once in gravy and once in jelly. The headline is the analysis: protein converts to 52.5% of dry matter, a genuinely protein-led figure for a wet food. Both boxes land in our Good band.

Our view

Likely to suit

Small dogs, the size the pouches are built and portioned around
Gravy or jelly without changing the recipe underneath
A protein-led dinner, at 52.5% of dry matter
A little more fibre in the bowl: 6.0% of dry matter
Meat rotation, with beef, chicken and lamb in one box
Older small dogs, taurine printed at 525 mg/kg

Worth watching

Fish and fish derivatives in all three recipes, whatever the front says
Beef and lamb at 4% of their chunks; the rest of the animal content is unnamed
Vegetable protein extracts and derivatives of vegetable origin name no source
Lean fat at 15.0% of dry matter for a small dog that needs feeding up

The details

Dog fit

Listed for small adult dogs. The label asks 170 to 510 grams a day between 1kg and 5kg, and 510 to 765 grams between 5kg and 10kg, so count pouches against that.

The score, in context

All two Good. Typical wet food: Excellent.

The protein figure lifts both boxes, and loose naming keeps them from climbing further.

Against the range

Sauce: Jelly, the firmer eating; Gravy in the other box
Box sizes: 12 pouches only; Gravy also comes as 40
Recipe and analysis: Same three chunks; Identical

Some small dogs much prefer jelly and others leave it in the bowl, so try one box first.

Both boxes hold the same three chunk recipes (beef with potatoes and peas, chicken with carrots and green beans, lamb with rice and carrots) at 40% chunks a pouch. Chicken is declared at 10%, beef and lamb at 4% of their chunks, all inside meat and animal derivatives. Fish and fish derivatives runs through all three. The analysis is identical across both: protein 52.5% of dry matter, fat 15.0%, fibre 6.0%. Only the sauce changes.
