Forza10 Medium Adult Pork with Potatoes
Dry Extruded complete High meat Clear label
Is Forza10 Medium Adult Pork with Potatoes a good dog food?
We score it 55/100 (Average). This reflects the ingredient quality, composition and label transparency of the recipe as declared on the label.
Why this score?
This recipe achieves an overall rating of 55 out of 100. The meat content contributed +4.2 points, while the overall quality of the ingredient list added +4.8 points to the total. However, the processing format reduced the score by -7 and ingredients without printed percentages decreased it by -8.8.
Only part of the analytical constituents are declared, so the nutritional picture is incomplete.
67% of this recipe has no printed percentage. Estimated shares are model estimates, not label facts.

Who is this food for?
Suits
- Labelled by the manufacturer for adult dogs
- Doesn't list chicken, beef, turkey, lamb, venison, duck as ingredients
Consider something else if:
- Your dog avoids fish: the label lists fish oil
- Your dog avoids pork: the label lists dehydrated pork protein
- 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.

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 | 25 | 27.2 (band 18 to 40%) | 95 |
| Fat | 14.5 | 15.8 (band 5.5 to 20%) | 100 |
| Fibre | 2.7 | 2.9 (band 0.5 to 5%) | 100 |
| Omega fatty acids (omega-6 and omega-3) | - | - | 100 |
| Energy (kcal/100g) | 377 | 409.8 | 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 5 declared nutrients (combined weight 70); 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.
| Item | Points |
|---|---|
| Ingredient list on the label (mandatory) | 10/10 |
| Printed percentages on the label (32.9% of the recipe mass) (voluntary) | 6.6/20 |
| Analytical constituents declared (mandatory) - not on file | 0/15 |
| 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) - not on file | 0/5 |
Capped at 60: mandatory items missing (Analytical constituents declared, Batch and date labelling).

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 |
|---|---|---|
| Hypoallergenic: formula designed to mitigate general food intolerances manifesting in many different forms (on page) | Functional | Manufacturer assertion |
| Immunity support: balanced Omega-3 to Omega-6 ratio of 1:3, contains Maitake (Grifola frondosa), which supports the immune system (on page) | Functional | Manufacturer assertion |
| Skin & Coat care: with Aloe vera extracts that soothe and promote wound healing, with hydrating and emollient properties (on page) | Functional | Manufacturer assertion |
| Complete dietetic food for adult dogs (on pack) | Content | Manufacturer assertion |
| Monoprotein: formulated only with protein from pork (on page) | Content | Manufacturer assertion |
| Without added colours: any changes in colour are solely due to the ingredients in the formulation (on pack) | Free-from | Manufacturer assertion |
| Low Grain: formulated with ancient grains high in biological value - rice and white sorghum (on page) | Content | Manufacturer assertion |
Limited: at least one claim rests on manufacturer assertion alone.
