Name: Sneyd's Wonderdog Wonderdog Worker 21
Brand: Sneyd's Wonderdog

26.2/100Poor

DryAdult

A lean, plainly written kibble for dogs that are outdoors all day and asleep by the fire all evening, in our Poor band. Five of its six ingredients are category terms, and moisture is missing from the analysis. The bags sell by the pallet as readily as one at a time.

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

A kennel or a house full of dogs, buying single 15kg bags or 30 and 60 at a time
Dogs that hold their weight easily, fat declared at only 7%
Working dogs on a steady round, not a hard competitive season
A plain everyday bowl for a dog with a settled stomach

Worth watching

No moisture declared, so every dry matter figure here assumes 8%
Chicken, lamb, beef and pork in one bracket. An exclusion trial has nothing to work from
Carbohydrate at 58.7% of dry matter, against 46.2% for typical adult dry

The details

Dog fit

Listed for adults of every size. A dog working hard needs a bigger bowl of this than of a richer kibble, so weigh a portion at the start and let the waistline correct it.

The score, in context

Wonderdog Worker 21 26.2

All one Poor. Typical dry food: Good.

The low score is about a label that says very little; the lean analysis itself raises nothing alarming.

What's in it

CerealsLeads the list without naming a grain, so the mix can change from batch to batch.
Meat and animal derivatives (chicken, lamb, beef, pork)The bracket names the four animals, a real piece of disclosure. Which parts, and in what balance, stays unsaid.
Derivatives of vegetable originAnother umbrella term.
Oils and fatsThe whole of the added fat, animal or vegetable unstated. Only 7.6% of dry matter, so it matters less here.
Minerals

Vitamins A, D3 and E with iron, zinc, manganese, copper, iodine and selenium, each dosed in print, the metals as workaday sulphates and selenium as sodium selenite.

Four animals behind one category term, so a dog reacting to one of them cannot be separated out.

Named ingredients

Cereals, meat and animal derivatives (Chicken, Lamb, Beef & Pork), derivatives of vegetable origin, oils and fats, minerals.
