WorkingHPRs Grain Free Adult: Duck, Sweet Potato & Orange review
Flavour
A grain-free working-dog line that keeps the recipe and changes the animal, and every label shows how its meat splits into fresh, dried and stock. The salmon, haddock and white fish recipe for puppies reaches our Excellent band. The four adult recipes sit in our Good band.
Our view
Likely to suit
- Rotation feeders, with five labels on one construction
- Dogs kept off cereal entirely
- A single named land animal, which the duck and the lamb each keep to
- Unsettled digestion: FOS and MOS are dosed, not just named
- Growing dogs, on the puppy recipe with glucosamine and methylsulfonylmethane at 170 mg/kg
- Working and sporting dogs that need a meat-forward bowl
Worth watching
- The venison recipe is half salmon, so neither fish free nor venison only
- An Omega 3 Supplement with no named source on every label, one open entry on a strict elimination plan
- The salmon, haddock and white fish recipe is written for puppies, so its guide is a growth chart

- Duck 68.1
- Lamb 66.9

Five recipes across Excellent and Good. Typical dry food: Good.
The puppy recipe edges ahead and the four adult ones sit close together, so choose the animal first and treat our ordering as the tie-breaker.

A single-bird recipe that suits a dog burning what it eats.
One grain-free recipe with the animal changed: four adult labels open on a named meat at 50%, and the puppy recipe on fish at 60%. Each prints how the meat splits between freshly prepared, dried and stock, and the dried figure is the one that reaches the bowl.
Sweet potato leads the plant side everywhere, from 20% to 27%, with peas, potato and beet pulp behind. FOS and MOS are dosed on every bag, linseed adds plant omega 3, and an Omega 3 Supplement with no named source sits on all five.
