Raw complementary High meat Clear label Full label
Is Haustierkost BARF Comfort PLUS Horse a good dog food?
This is a complementary food, not a complete diet, so it is not scored on our 1-100 scale. The ingredient breakdown below shows what is in it; a complementary food should be fed alongside, not instead of, a complete diet.
- RecipeNot applicable
- NutritionalNot applicable
- Transparency60
- Safety100
- EvidenceNot recorded
Why you might choose it
- Meat makes up an estimated 59% of the dry matter (70% as fed).
- Prints ingredient percentages on the label.
- Prints a percentage for nearly every ingredient, so the recipe is fully auditable.
Why you might not
- A complementary food, not a complete diet: feed alongside a complete food.
- High in fat: 50% fat on a dry-matter basis.
- Needs freezer space and defrosting before serving.
What the label tells us
- The label lists 16 ingredients.
- Names its animal sources (3 named ingredients).
- Uses generic terms (Stomach, Horse Lung): the specific animal source is not stated.
- Lists no artificial colours or preservatives.
- Prints quantities for 16 ingredients.
Why is this treat not scored?
Our 1 to 100 rating applies to complete diets, so treats and complementary foods are presented as what the label tells us rather than a number that would invite comparison with complete meals.
What should I look for on a treat label?
A short ingredient list, named animal sources instead of generic terms, and no artificial colours or preservatives. Printed quantities are a good transparency signal, though few treat labels provide them.
These points are derived from the published ingredient list, not a rating.

Who is this food for?
Suits
- Labelled by the manufacturer for all lifestages
- Doesn't list chicken, beef, turkey, lamb, fish, venison, pork, duck as ingredients
Consider something else if:
- Your dog avoids grain: the label lists malt
- You are limiting fat: 50.0% on a dry-matter basis is in the high band

Contributions are rounded to two decimals, so they may not sum exactly to the subtotal. The full coefficient table is published on the methodology page.
This is not a complete diet, so the 1-100 rating does not apply to it. Read the recipe breakdown above as ingredient-quality context only.
Nutritional: declared analysis vs reference ranges
Not applicable to complementary food. FEDIAF reference ranges apply to complete diets.
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.
| Item | Points |
|---|---|
| Ingredient list on the label (mandatory) | 10/10 |
| Printed percentages on the label (100% of the recipe mass) (voluntary) | 20/20 |
| Analytical constituents declared (mandatory) | 15/15 |
| Additives declared (mandatory) - not on file | 0/10 |
| Energy value declared (voluntary) - not on file | 0/5 |
| Complete/complementary designation (mandatory) | 5/5 |
| Feeding guidance given (mandatory) - not on file | 0/10 |
| Manufacturer identity and address (mandatory) | 10/10 |
| Country of manufacture stated (voluntary) | 10/10 |
| Batch and date labelling (mandatory) - not on file | 0/5 |
Capped at 60: mandatory items missing (Additives declared, Feeding guidance given, Batch and date labelling).
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.
Claims on file; none we can check against the label
| Claim | Type | Check | Substantiation |
|---|---|---|---|
| BARF complete menu with valuable natural ingredients (on page) | Content | not checkable | Manufacturer assertion |
| fresh animal ingredients as well as fruit and vegetables (on page) | Content | not checkable | Manufacturer assertion |
| especially for four-legged friends with allergies / intolerances (on page) | Functional | not checkable | Manufacturer assertion |
| linseed oil (rich in omega-3 fatty acids) (on page) | Nutrient | not checkable | Manufacturer assertion |
| horse breastbone cartilage as a natural source of calcium contributes to a desired calcium-phosphorus ratio (on page) | Functional | not checkable | Manufacturer assertion |
