Is Forza10 All Size Puppy - Fish a good dog food?

We score it 51/100 (Average). This reflects the ingredient quality, composition and label transparency of the recipe as declared on the label.

How we score

Why this score?

This recipe achieves an overall score of 51 out of 100 based on several key factors. The meat content contributed +3.5 points to the total. However, the processing format deducted -7 points, and ingredients without printed percentages further reduced the score by -6.5 points. Additionally, the carbohydrate content resulted in a deduction of -4.6 points.

Only part of the analytical constituents are declared, so the nutritional picture is incomplete.

50% of this recipe has no printed percentage. Estimated shares are model estimates, not label facts.

The Recipe score measures how attractive and transparent the declared ingredient list is. It is not, by itself, proof that the food is nutritionally appropriate for long-term feeding. The Nutritional and Evidence scores measure what we can verify towards that stronger claim.

Complete extruded dry food for puppies, with meat meal, rice and pea starch as the main ingredients.

Why you might choose it

Who is this food for?

Suits

  • Labelled by the manufacturer for puppies
  • Doesn't list chicken, beef, turkey, lamb, venison, pork, duck as ingredients

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids fish: the label lists fish oil
  • Your dog avoids grain: the label lists rice - white

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. Use the homepage filter to find foods that fit your dog.

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 puppies and growth. 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 against FEDIAF growth minima; puppy scoring is under review.

NutrientAs fed (label)Dry matter (scored)Score
Protein3032.6100
Fat16.517.9100
Calcium1.21.3100
Phosphorus1.11.2100
Calcium:phosphorus ratio1.11.1100
Omega fatty acids (omega-6 and omega-3)--100
Energy (kcal/100g)386419.6100

Omega fatty acids (omega-6 and omega-3): scored as the mean of its declared components (omega-6 100, omega-3 100). 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. Moisture was not declared and was estimated at 8% from the food type.

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 marketing claims made on the pack and product page, and how much evidence sits behind them. We record the claims as stated; we do not assess whether they are true.

Hypoallergenic: formula designed to mitigate general food intolerances manifesting in many different forms. (on page)FunctionalManufacturer assertion
Healthy Growth & Development: balanced Omega-3 to Omega-6 ratio of 1:3 and with glucosamine, beneficial for joints and cartilage during growth. (on page)FunctionalManufacturer assertion
Optimal Digestion: contains prebiotics (MOS and FOS) that promote a balanced bacterial flora and firm stools, and Choline Chloride, which contributes to the fat assimilation process. (on page)FunctionalManufacturer assertion
Without added colours (on page)Free-fromManufacturer assertion
Monoprotein: formulated only with fish caught in the most pristine waters. (on page)ContentManufacturer assertion
Low & Mono Grain: formulated with rice, a grain high in biological value. (on page)ContentManufacturer assertion
