Feeding and storage

Storage

Essential vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids degrade over time. Therefore, to keep our food its as fresh and nutrient rich as possible. We produce it in small batches. We keep our stock levels very low. And we deliver direct to you the next working day. If we sold our food in supermarkets and pet stores, we would loose control over this process.

Score history across model versions

The score shown above is always computed with the latest published model. Earlier scores are kept for the record and are never edited or deleted; a scoring change ships as a new model version with a public write-up on the methodology page.

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

Calcium:phosphorus ratio1.41.4 (band 1 to 2%)96.7
Omega fatty acids (omega-6 and omega-3)--69.2

Omega fatty acids (omega-6 and omega-3): scored as the mean of its declared components (omega-6 69.2). The FEDIAF minimum for omega-6 is linoleic acid specifically.

Scored over 7 declared nutrients (combined weight 90); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score.

Declared fortification: 7 nutritional additives on the label
  • Vitamin A 14423 IU
  • Vitamin D3 2000 IU
  • Vitamin E 96 IU
  • Zinc Zinc Sulphate Monohydrate 48 mg
  • Iron Iron (II) Sulphate Monohydrate 48 mg
  • Manganese Manganous Sulphate Monohydrate 34 mg
  • Iodine Calcium Iodate Anhydrous 0.96 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.

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.
