Our verdict

Is Dogpro Adult Dog a good dog food?

We score it 45/100 (Average). This reflects the ingredient quality, composition and label transparency of the recipe as declared on the label.

How we score

Only part of the analytical constituents are declared, so the nutritional picture is incomplete.

66% of this recipe has no printed percentage. Estimated shares are model estimates, not label facts.

Why you might choose it

  • Low in fat for its format: 9% fat on a dry-matter basis.
  • Declares energy content, which most labels omit.
  • Nutritionally complete: formulated to be fed as the whole diet.

Why you might not

  • Around 22% of the recipe is generic or unspecified ingredients.
  • Low in protein: 20% protein on a dry-matter basis.
  • Only protein and fat declared; fibre, ash and moisture missing from the analysis.

Who is this food for?

Suits

  • Labelled by the manufacturer for adult dogs
  • Doesn't list lamb, fish, venison, pork, duck as ingredients

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids chicken: the label lists hydrolysed chicken protein
  • Your dog avoids beef: the label lists beef
  • Your dog avoids turkey: the label lists poultry fat
  • Your dog avoids grain: the label lists wheat
  • You want a single-protein recipe: this one lists more than one animal protein
  • You need more protein than this: 20.0% on a dry-matter basis is in the low band

These points are derived from declared ingredients and analysis, not a substitute for veterinary advice. If your dog has a diagnosed condition, food choice is a medical nutrition decision: speak to your vet. Find foods that fit your dog.

Nutritional: declared analysis vs reference ranges

How the declared analysis compares with FEDIAF reference ranges for adult dogs. The label prints as-fed values; we convert to a dry-matter basis before scoring, and the bands are dry-matter ranges. Scores rise to 100 at the band midpoint: the reference is adequacy, not maximisation. Nutrients with a published upper limit taper again above it; fat is policed through calorie density rather than a direct penalty.

NutrientAs fed (label)Dry matter (scored)Score
Protein2021.8 (band 18 to 40%)80.4
Fat99.8 (band 5.5 to 20%)87.9
Energy (kcal/100g)350381.7100

Scored over 3 declared nutrients (combined weight 50); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score. Moisture was not declared and was estimated at 8.3% from the food type.

No nutritional additives section declared on the label.

Low confidence: partial analysis or moisture estimated from the food type.

This measures agreement with published reference ranges, not suitability for an individual dog. For medical conditions, follow veterinary guidance.

Transparency: what the label discloses

How much the manufacturer discloses, measured against the FEDIAF Code of Good Labelling Practice and Regulation 767/2009. Mandatory items dominate the weighting.

Safety: recall history

Recall and safety-notice history, time-decayed. This dimension is shown alongside the score and never feeds the headline number.

No recalls recorded in our database.

Evidence: what the brand claims, and what supports it

The claims made on the pack and product page, checked against the declared label. We record claims as stated; "consistent" means our stored label data supports the claim, "contradicted" means it conflicts with it. Functional claims are recorded but never scored.

0/100 · limited — 2 checkable claims: 0 consistent, 2 contradicted.

Contradicted by the label

  • "With 20% protein to support muscle upkeep" — the declared label says otherwise on high protein.
  • "9% fat for everyday energy" — the declared label says otherwise on high fat.

6 further claims on file that we cannot check against the label.

Limited: at least one claim contradicts the declared label, or a recent upheld ASA ruling applies.
