Our verdict

Is Harper & Bone Adult Dog Ocean Wonders 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 salmon, rice and tuna as the main ingredients.

How we score

Only part of the analytical constituents are declared, so the nutritional picture is incomplete.

32% of this recipe has no printed percentage. Estimated shares are model estimates, not label facts.

Why you might choose it

  • Meat makes up an estimated 35% of the dry matter (45% as fed).
  • Prints ingredient percentages on the label.
  • Declares energy content, which most labels omit.

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 beef, turkey, lamb, venison, pork, duck as ingredients

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids chicken: the label lists chicken oil and fat
  • Your dog avoids fish: the label lists salmon
  • Your dog avoids grain: the label lists rice - white
  • 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.

Recipe: how the 1-100 score is calculated

Why this score?

This recipe achieves an overall score of 64 out of 100 based on several key factors. The overall quality of the ingredient list adds +6.7 points, and the meat content contributes +3.4 points to the total. However, the processing format detracts -6.7 points, and the carbohydrate content deducts -4.1 points from the final score.

Scored with model v3 on 2026-10-25. Each component is the feature value for this product multiplied by the model's published coefficient.

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.

Calcium:phosphorus ratio1.31.3 (band 1 to 2%)88
Omega fatty acids (omega-6 and omega-3)--100
Energy (kcal/100g)368406.6100

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 8 declared nutrients (combined weight 100); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score. Moisture was not declared and was estimated at 9.5% from the food type.

Declared fortification: 9 nutritional additives on the label
  • Vitamin A 20,000 IU/kg
  • Vitamin D3 1,800 IU/kg
  • Vitamin E 200 mg/kg
  • Vitamin C 75 mg/kg
  • Iron (iron (II) amino acid chelate, hydrated) 45 mg/kg
  • Copper (copper (II) amino acid chelate, hydrated) 7 mg/kg
  • Manganese (manganese amino acid chelate, hydrated) 15 mg/kg
  • Zinc (zinc amino acid chelate, hydrated) 85 mg/kg
  • Selenium (selenized yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCYC R397, inactivated, selenium yeast complex) 0.2 mg/kg

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.

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.
