Our verdict
Is Eden Gourmet Goose & Turkey - Joint Health a good dog food?

Complete extruded dry food for dogs of all life stages, with goose, rabbit and turkey as the main ingredients.
Who is this food for?
Suits
- Labelled by the manufacturer for all lifestages
- Grain-free: no grain ingredients listed
- Doesn't list beef, lamb, venison, pork, duck as ingredients
Consider something else if:
- Your dog avoids chicken: the label lists poultry fat
- Your dog avoids turkey: the label lists turkey
- 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?
The overall score is 76 out of 100. The meat content contributed +8.3 points and the overall quality of the ingredient list contributed +7.2 points, both lifting the result. The processing format reduced the score by -6.7 points, while being labelled nutritionally complete added +2.3 points.
Scored with model v3 on 2026-10-25. Each component is the feature value for this product multiplied by the model's published coefficient.

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.
| Nutrient | As fed (label) | Dry matter (scored) | Score |
|---|---|---|---|
| Protein | 27.5 | 29.9 (band 18 to 40%) | 100 |
| Fat | 17.5 | 19 (band 5.5 to 20%) | 100 |
| Fibre | 5 | 5.4 (band 0.5 to 5%) | 100 |
| Calcium | 1.6 | 1.7 (band 0.5 to 2.5%) | 100 |
| Phosphorus | 1.5 | 1.6 (band 0.4 to 1.6%) | 98.1 |
| Calcium:phosphorus ratio | 1.1 | 1.1 (band 1 to 2%) | 74 |
| Omega fatty acids (omega-6 and omega-3) | - | - | 100 |
Omega fatty acids (omega-6 and omega-3): scored as the mean of its declared components (omega-6 100). 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: 11 nutritional additives on the label
- Vitamin A 14423 IU
- Vitamin D3 1442 IU
- Vitamin E 96 IU
- Taurine 962 mg
- Zinc (Zinc Chelate of Amino Acids Hydrate) 58 mg
- Iron (Iron (II) Chelate of Protein Hydrolystates) 72 mg
- Manganese (Manganese Chelate of Protein Hydrolystates) 24 mg
- Copper (Copper (II) Chelate of Amino Acids Hydrate) 10 mg
- Iodine (Calcium Iodate Anhydrous) 1.44 mg
- Selenium (Selenised Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM 1-3060
- inactivated) 0.22 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.
| 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) | 5/10 |
| 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) | 5/10 |
| Country of manufacture stated (voluntary) | 10/10 |
| Batch and date labelling (mandatory) - not on file | 0/5 |
Capped at 60: mandatory items missing (Feeding guidance given, Batch and date labelling).

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.
