Our verdict

Is BARFER'S Komplett-Mix Senior Rind & Huhn a good dog food?

We score it 87/100 (Good). 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.

Why you might choose it

  • Scores 87, in the top quarter of the foods we track.
  • Meat makes up an estimated 41% of the dry matter (60% as fed).
  • Prints ingredient percentages on the label.

Why you might not

  • High in fat: 34% fat on a dry-matter basis.
  • Needs freezer space and defrosting before serving.

Who is this food for?

Suits

  • Labelled by the manufacturer for senior dogs
  • Grain-free: no grain ingredients listed
  • Doesn't list turkey, lamb, venison, pork, duck as ingredients

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids chicken: the label lists chicken
  • Your dog avoids beef: the label lists beef
  • Your dog avoids fish: the label lists cod liver oil
  • You want a single-protein recipe: this one lists more than one animal protein
  • You are limiting fat: 33.8% 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.

NutrientAs fed (label)Dry matter (scored)Score
Protein13.143 (band 18 to 40%)100
Fat10.333.8 (band 5.5 to 20%)100

Scored over 2 declared nutrients (combined weight 40); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score.

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.
