Our verdict

Is DOGS Premium Hundefutter Kalb & Rind – Getreidefrei a good dog food?

We score it 57/100 (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.

32% of this recipe has no printed percentage. Estimated shares are model estimates, not label facts.

Why you might choose it

  • Meat makes up an estimated 30% of the dry matter.
  • Prints ingredient percentages on the label.
  • Doesn't list grain ingredients.

Why you might not

We found no significant drawbacks in the data we hold for this product.

Who is this food for?

Suits

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

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids chicken: the label lists hydrolysed poultry
  • Your dog avoids beef: the label lists beef
  • Your dog avoids turkey: the label lists hydrolysed poultry
  • Your dog avoids fish: the label lists green-lipped mussel
  • You want a single-protein recipe: this one lists more than one animal protein

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.

Recipe: how the 1-100 score is calculated

Why this score?

This recipe achieves an overall score of 57 out of 100 based on several key factors. The overall quality of the ingredient list positively influences the result by contributing +6.7 points. However, the processing format detracts from the total with a change of -6.7. Similarly, the carbohydrate content impacts the score by -4.9, and ingredients without printed percentages further adjust the final result by -3.4.

Scored with model v3 on 2026-10-25. Each component is the feature value for this product multiplied by the model's published coefficient.

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
Protein22.524.9 (band 18 to 40%)88.7
Fat1314.4 (band 5.5 to 20%)100
Fibre44.4 (band 0.5 to 5%)100

Scored over 3 declared nutrients (combined weight 50); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score. Moisture was not declared and was estimated at 9.5% 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.
