Ydolo Puppy Wet review

Name: Ydolo Puppy Wet
Brand: Ydolo

81.4/100Outstanding

WetPuppy

A puppy tin filled almost entirely with named animals, and it sits in our Outstanding band. Half of it is pork, the rest small oily fish. The joint supplements and even the garnish come with doses you can weigh, which few makers bother with.

Our view

Likely to suit

Puppies raised on a meat-led bowl
Pups meeting pork for the first time. Dog food still reaches for it rarely
Homes keeping cereals out
Early joint support in print: glucosamine 1000 mg/kg, chondroitin 850 mg/kg, MSM 650 mg/kg
Fast-growing pups with modest appetites, at 150 kcal per 100g against a typical 106

Worth watching

No calcium figure anywhere. Ask Ydolo before a large or giant pup lives on it
Pork, sardines, anchovies and trout oil: four animals, so no single-protein plan and no avoiding fish
Rich at 32.8% fat in dry matter, so measure portions and adjust as the pup fills out

The score, in context

Ydolo Puppy Wet 81.4

All one Outstanding. Typical wet food: Excellent.

Every pillar points the same way, and it finishes above a typical wet puppy food that is already good.

What's in it

Fresh pork50%Half the tin is one mammal meat.
Sardines, anchovies20% eachWild caught small oily fish.
Sweet potato5%The whole of the starch story. Carbohydrate is estimated at 13.2% of dry matter.
Health mix: banana, artichoke, chicory, alfalfa, apples, blueberries, sprouts3%Each dosed in mg/kg, banana at 5982 leading. Chicory's inulin feeds gut bacteria.
Green lipped mussel598 mg/kgWorks the same corner as the joint trio.
Rosemary, thyme, oregano, olive oil419 to 359 mg/kgPartly natural antioxidants. Garnish, declared properly.
Trout oil1%A fourth animal on the list, which matters on a strict exclusion trial.
Glucosamine, chondroitin, MSM1000, 850, 650 mg/kgQuantities you could point a vet at.

Taurine at 1000 mg/kg and L-Carnitine at 500 mg/kg stand out, the carnitine helping turn fat into energy, with a full trace mineral run from zinc to selenium.

No calcium figure on the label. For a large or giant breed pup, ask the maker first.
