Owners who want a fully itemised list
Pups that get on happily with cereal: white rice at 26% and maize at 25%
Growing dogs on a straightforward mixed diet, with linseed and fish meal topping up the fats

Worth watching

No calcium figure, so ask Sneyd's for it if you are raising a big breed pup
Poultry fat and fish meal name no species, which matters for a strict exclusion trial

The score, in context

Wonderdog Premium Puppy Chicken & Rice 59.1

All one Good. Typical dry food: Good.

It keeps company with the mainstream of puppy kibble, a shade under the middle: an open label around a competent cereal-based recipe.

What's in it

Chicken meal32.69%Water driven off before mixing, so the printed share carries through to the kibble.
White rice26%Gentle on most young digestions.
Maize25%A dependable workhorse starch for a pup without a cereal sensitivity.
Poultry fat7%The entry to read twice. Poultry covers any domestic bird, so an elimination diet cannot lean on it.
Beet pulp5%Fibre.
Linseed2.5%Plant omega 3 for skin and coat.
Fish meal1%Marine oils, with no fish named.
Puppy premix0.8%Carries the vitamins and trace elements.
Chicory0.01%For its inulin.

Vitamins A, D3 and E with zinc, iron, manganese, copper, iodine and selenium, each dosed in the standard oxide, sulphate, iodate and selenite forms.

No calcium figure printed, the number that works hardest in big breed rearing.

No moisture declared, so the dry-matter figures assume 8%, and the energy figure is our estimate.
