Wolf Of Wilderness 'The Taste Of' Tins: The Taste Of Canada review

Name: Wolf Of Wilderness 'The Taste Of' Tins: The Taste Of Canada
Brand: Wolf Of Wilderness

77.9/100Excellent

WetAdultSenior

Flavour

Five tins, five postcards from somewhere wilder, and all of them in our Excellent band. Each blends named animals in broth, and the novel ones are real: kangaroo, goat, reindeer, cod and trout. Nothing is left as a category term, which is unusual on a wet shelf.

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

Dogs bored of the usual meats
Owners who want every animal named, with a percentage beside it
Very little starch. The carbohydrate estimate runs from 6.5% to 11.2% of dry matter
Older dogs, as three of the five carry a senior label alongside the adult one
Multi-dog homes, with one construction across all five and only the animals changing

Worth watching

At least two animals in every tin, so none can anchor an avoidance plan
Chicken in three of the five, matching the lamb at 28.0% in the Mediterranean
Fish in three tins: cod, salmon and trout

The details

Dog fit

Listed for adults, with Canada, Scandinavia and the Mediterranean also for seniors. These are rich tins, so a dog moving over from a lighter wet food will need a smaller bowl.

All five Excellent. Typical wet food: Excellent.

Nothing meaningful separates the five, so your dog's preference is the better tie-breaker.

Named ingredients

Beef (40.0%, consisting of heart, meat, lung, liver, udder, rumen), broth (29.2%), turkey (15.0%, consisting of stomach, meat, heart, liver, neck), cod (10.0%), wild berries (3.0%, cranberries), minerals, safflower oil (1.0%), eggshell powder (0.5%), brewer's yeast (0.1%), wild herbs (0.1%, nettle, chamomile, fennel, caraway meal, yarrow), inulin (0.1%).

Against the range

Meat: Beef 40.0%, turkey 15.0%, cod 10.0%; Chicken leads three others.
Fat, dry matter: 32.0%; 26.2% on Scandinavia and the Mediterranean.
Wild berries: 3.0%; 1.0% to 2.0% elsewhere.

The beef-led tin, and a sound pick for a dog that likes red meat.

Every tin follows one idea with a different cast. A lead animal takes between 28.0% and 45.0%, one or two more follow with their own percentages, and broth is declared at 27.3% to 30.6%. Each animal is written part by part, hearts, livers, lungs and necks among them, so the recipes are built on whole-carcass eating.

Eggshell powder supplies calcium, and the oil changes with the tin: safflower, salmon or olive. There is no cereal anywhere. Protein converts to between 43.2% and 49.0% of dry matter and the carbohydrate estimate tops out at 11.2%.
