Feeding guide
Recommended period of use: initially up to 3 months for support of joint metabolism, and from 3 to 8 weeks for reduction of intolerance to ingredients and nutrients. If intolerance symptoms disappear, the food can be initially used up to 1 year. It is recommended that a veterinarian's opinion be sought before use or before extending the period of use. Water should be available at all times. Feed only FORZA10 for best results; gradual introduction is not necessary.
Who is this food for?
Suits
- Labelled by the manufacturer for puppies

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.
| Nutrient | As fed (label) | Dry matter (scored) | Score |
|---|---|---|---|
| Protein | 32.5 | 35.3 | 100 |
| Fat | 16 | 17.4 | 100 |
| Calcium | 1.2 | 1.3 | 100 |
| Phosphorus | 1.1 | 1.2 | 100 |
| Calcium:phosphorus ratio | 1.1 | 1.1 | 100 |
| 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-3 100). The FEDIAF minimum for omega-6 is linoleic acid specifically.
Scored over 6 declared nutrients (combined weight 80); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score.
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 (31.7% of the recipe mass) (voluntary) | 6.3/20 |
| Analytical constituents declared (mandatory) | 15/15 |
| Additives declared (mandatory) | 10/10 |
| Energy value declared (voluntary) - not on file | 0/5 |
| 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 (Batch and date labelling).
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 |
|---|---|---|
| Omega3 & EPA: Optimum balance between Omega-3 and EPA fatty acids from fish oil to support joint functionality. (on page) | Functional | 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 |
| Complete dietetic food for puppies and pregnant or lactating dogs. (on page) | Content | Manufacturer assertion |
| Monoprotein: formulated with an alternative single source of animal protein: fish protein high in biological value and bioavailability. (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.
