Dry Extruded · completeHigh meat

Our verdict
Is Harper & Bone Puppy Digestive - Divine Rabbit a good dog food?
We score it 69/100 (Average). This reflects the ingredient quality, composition and label transparency of the recipe as declared on the label.
Complete extruded dry food for puppies, with rabbit, peas and potatoes as the main ingredients.
Only part of the analytical constituents are declared, so the nutritional picture is incomplete.
36% 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 puppies
- Grain-free: no grain ingredients listed
- 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 krill
- 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.

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 | 29 | 32 | 100 |
| Fat | 19 | 21 | 100 |
| Calcium | 1.3 | 1.4 | 100 |
| Phosphorus | 1.15 | 1.3 | 100 |
| Calcium:phosphorus ratio | 1.1 | 1.1 | 100 |
| Omega fatty acids (omega-6 and omega-3) | - | - | 100 |
| Energy (kcal/100g) | 392 | 433.1 | 100 |
Omega fatty acids (omega-6 and omega-3): scored as the mean of its declared components (omega-6 100, omega-3 100). The FEDIAF minimum for omega-6 is linoleic acid specifically.
Scored over 7 declared nutrients (combined weight 90); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score. Moisture was not declared and was estimated at 9.5% from the food type.
Declared fortification: 10 nutritional additives on the label
- vitamin A 22000 IU/kg
- vitamin D3 2000 IU/kg
- vitamin E 650 mg/kg
- vitamin C 150 mg/kg
- iron (ferrous amino acid chelate, hydrated) 70 mg/kg
- copper (cupric amino acid chelate, hydrated) 6 mg/kg
- manganese (manganese amino acid chelate, hydrated) 32 mg/kg
- zinc (zinc amino acid chelate, hydrated) 90 mg/kg
- selenium (selenized yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCYC R397, inactivated, selenium yeast complex) 0.20 mg/kg
- taurine 600 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.
| Item | Points |
|---|---|
| Ingredient list on the label (mandatory) | 10/10 |
| Printed percentages on the label (64% of the recipe mass) (voluntary) | 12.8/20 |
| 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) - not on file | 0/10 |
| 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, Feeding guidance given, Batch and date labelling).

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.
40/100 · limited — 5 checkable claims: 2 consistent, 3 contradicted.
Contradicted by the label
- "Contains a single source of animal protein" — the declared label says otherwise on single protein.
- "Low in fat and cholesterol, yet rich in proteins and essential minerals for your puppy's healthy growth" — the declared label says otherwise on low fat.
- "fresh rabbit meat as the only animal source" — the declared label says otherwise on single protein.
Consistent with the label
- "Grain Free" — supported by the declared grain-free data.
- "Free from soy, corn or wheat" — supported by the declared grain-free data.
6 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.
