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. 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.

| v2 | 64/100 | current |
| v1 | 63/100 | |

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 |
| Calcium:phosphorus ratio | 1.2 | 1.2 (band 1 to 2%) | 82 |
| Energy (kcal/100g) | 357.2 | 392.5 | 100 |
Scored over 7 declared nutrients (combined weight 90); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score.
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 |
| Batch and date labelling (mandatory) | 5/5 |
Safety: recall history

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.
| Claim | Type | Substantiation |
|---|---|---|
| Monoprotein: formulated with highly digestible lamb protein, an alternative source of animal protein. (on page) | Content | 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 | Manufacturer assertion |
| Compensation of poor digestion (on page) | Functional | Manufacturer assertion |
| Reduction of intolerance to ingredients and nutrients (on page) | Functional | Manufacturer assertion |
| Highly digestible food (on page) | Content | 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 | Manufacturer assertion |
| Protein from selected sources (hydrolysed animal protein, lamb) (on page) | Content | Manufacturer assertion |
| Without added colours: any changes in colour are solely due to the ingredients in the formulation. (on page) | Free-from | Manufacturer assertion |
Limited: at least one claim rests on manufacturer assertion alone.
