Our verdict
Is Forza10 Intestinal Colon Fase II with Lamb and White Sorghum a good dog food?
We score it 64/100 (Average). This reflects the ingredient quality, composition and label transparency of the recipe as declared on the label.
Complete extruded dry food for adult dogs, with sorghum, hydrolysed animal protein and dried lamb protein as the main ingredients.
Who is this food for?
Suits
- Labelled by the manufacturer for adult dogs
- Doesn't list chicken, beef, turkey, venison, pork, duck as ingredients
Consider something else if:
- Your dog avoids lamb: the label lists dried lamb protein
- Your dog avoids fish: the label lists fish oil
- Your dog avoids grain: the label lists sorghum
- 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.

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 | 26 | 28.6 (band 18 to 40%) | 98.8 |
| Fat | 14 | 15.4 (band 5.5 to 20%) | 100 |
| Fibre | 4.9 | 5.4 (band 0.5 to 5%) | 100 |
| Calcium | 1.2 | 1.3 (band 0.5 to 2.5%) | 94.6 |
| Phosphorus | 1 | 1.1 (band 0.4 to 1.6%) | 100 |
| Sodium | 0.5 | 0.5 (band 0.1+%) | 100 |
| Calcium:phosphorus ratio | 1.2 | 1.2 (band 1 to 2%) | 82 |
| Energy (kcal/100g) | 357.2 | 392.5 | 100 |

High confidence: full analysis plus minerals or omegas and declared energy.
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 (82.4% of the recipe mass) (voluntary) | 16.5/20 |
| Analytical constituents declared (mandatory) | 15/15 |
| Additives declared (mandatory) | 10/10 |
| Energy value declared (voluntary) | 5/5 |
| Complete/complementary designation (mandatory) | 5/5 |
| Feeding guidance given (mandatory) | 10/10 |
| Manufacturer identity and address (mandatory) | 5/10 |
| Country of manufacture stated (voluntary) | 10/10 |

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.
0/100 · limited — 1 checkable claim: 0 consistent, 1 contradicted.
Contradicted by the label
- "Monoprotein: formulated with highly digestible lamb protein, an alternative source of animal protein." — the declared label says otherwise on single protein.
7 further claims on file that we cannot check against the label.
Limited: at least one claim contradicts the declared label, or a recent upheld ASA ruling applies.
| Claim | Type | Check | Substantiation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monoprotein: formulated with highly digestible lamb protein, an alternative source of animal protein. (on page) | Content | contradicted | Manufacturer assertion |
| Ascophyllum nodosum: brown algae (Ascophyllum n.) provide an adequate amount of dietary fibre to restore intestinal function and the microbiota. (on page) | Functional | not checkable | Manufacturer assertion |
| Compensation of poor digestion (on page) | Functional | not checkable | Manufacturer assertion |
| Reduction of intolerance to ingredients and nutrients (on page) | Functional | not checkable | Manufacturer assertion |
| Highly digestible food (on page) | Content | not checkable | Manufacturer assertion |
| Limited ingredients formula: made with only a few select and high quality ingredients to minimise the risk of food intolerance. (on page) | Content | not checkable | Manufacturer assertion |
| Protein from selected sources (hydrolysed animal protein, lamb) (on page) | Content | not checkable | Manufacturer assertion |
| Without added colours: any changes in colour are solely due to the ingredients in the formulation. (on page) | Free-from | not checkable | Manufacturer assertion |
