Our verdict

Is Green Pantry White Fish with Chia Seeds and Ginger a good dog food?

We score it 74/100 (Good). This reflects the ingredient quality, composition and label transparency of the recipe as declared on the label.

Complete shelf-stable fresh food for adult dogs, with white fish, rice and carrots as the main ingredients.

How we score

Why you might choose it

  • Meat makes up an estimated 51% of the dry matter (72% as fed).
  • Prints ingredient percentages on the label.
  • High in protein: 36% protein on a dry-matter basis.

Why you might not

We found no significant drawbacks in the data we hold for this product.

Who is this food for?

Suits

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

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids fish: the label lists white fish
  • Your dog avoids grain: the label lists rice - brown / whole grain

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.

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.

NutrientAs fed (label)Dry matter (scored)Score
Protein12.636 (band 18 to 40%)100
Fat4.512.9 (band 5.5 to 20%)100
Fibre25.7 (band 0.5 to 5%)100

Scored over 3 declared nutrients (combined weight 50); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score.

Declared fortification: 6 nutritional additives on the label
  • Vitamin A 2500 IU
  • Vitamin E 20 IU
  • Zinc Zinc Chelate of Protein Hydrolysates 35 mg
  • Manganese Manganese Chelate of Protein Hydrolysates 15 mg
  • Copper Copper II Chelate of Protein Hydrolysates 3 mg
  • Iodine Calcium Iodate Anhydrous 0.5 mg

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.

Safety: recall history

Recall and safety-notice history, time-decayed. This dimension is shown alongside the score and never feeds the headline number.

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.

50/100 · limited — 2 checkable claims: 1 consistent, 1 contradicted.

Contradicted by the label

  • "Low-fat (4.5%) to support healthy weight control" — the declared label says otherwise on low fat.

Consistent with the label

  • "A well-balanced, complete meal providing all the nutrients your dog needs" — supported by the declared complete and balanced data.

8 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.
