Our verdict

Is Wildborn Crystal Stream mit Lachs & Forelle a good dog food?

We score it 77/100 (Good). This reflects the ingredient quality, composition and label transparency of the recipe as declared on the label.

How we score

Why you might choose it

  • Meat makes up an estimated 53% of the dry matter (66% 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

  • Around 41% of the recipe is generic or unspecified ingredients.
  • High in fat: 41% fat on a dry-matter basis.

Who is this food for?

Suits

  • Labelled by the manufacturer for adult dogs
  • Grain-free: no grain ingredients listed
  • Single named protein: fish
  • Doesn't list chicken, beef, turkey, lamb, venison, pork, duck as ingredients

Consider something else if:

  • You are limiting fat: 40.9% on a dry-matter basis is in the high 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.

Scored over 4 declared nutrients (combined weight 60); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score.

Declared fortification: 15 nutritional additives on the label
  • Vitamin A: 3000 I.E.
  • Vitamin E: 20 I.E.
  • Vitamin B1: 10 mg
  • Vitamin B2: 6 mg

  • Kupfer als Kupfer (II)-Sulfat-Pentahydrat: 2 mg
  • Zink: 25 mg
  • Mangan: 1,4 mg
  • Jod: 0,75 mg

Medium confidence: the full five-part analysis is on file; where moisture was not declared it was 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.

67/100 · limited — 3 checkable claims: 2 consistent, 1 contradicted.

Contradicted by the label

  • "fettarm" — the declared label says otherwise on low fat.

Consistent with the label

  • "ohne Getreide" — supported by the declared grain-free data.
  • "0 % Getreide" — supported by the declared grain-free data.

16 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.
