Freeze-Dried Chicken Breast & Rice Pops
This is sold as a treat, not as an everyday meal. The 1–100 rating applies to complete meals, so it isn't scored. Ingredient breakdown below.

Our verdict

Is Lecker Bites Freeze-Dried Chicken Breast & Rice Pops a good dog food?

This is a treat, not a complete diet, so it is not scored on our 1-100 scale. The ingredient breakdown below shows what is in it; a treat should be fed alongside, not instead of, a complete diet.

Complementary freeze-dried treats for dogs of all life stages, with chicken breast and rice as the main ingredients.

How we score

Why you might choose it

  • Meat makes up an estimated 100% of the dry matter.
  • Prints ingredient percentages on the label.
  • Prints a percentage for nearly every ingredient, so the recipe is fully auditable.

Why you might not

  • A treat, not a complete diet: feed as an extra, not the whole diet.
  • No analytical breakdown is published.

Who is this food for?

Suits

  • Labelled by the manufacturer for all lifestages
  • Single named protein: chicken
  • Doesn't list beef, turkey, lamb, fish, venison, pork, duck as ingredients

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids grain: the label lists rice - white

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.

What the label tells us

  • The label lists 2 ingredients.
  • Names its animal sources (1 named ingredient).
  • Every animal ingredient is a named source.
  • Lists no artificial colours or preservatives.
  • Prints no ingredient quantities.
Why is this treat not scored?

Our 1 to 100 rating applies to complete diets, so treats and complementary foods are presented as what the label tells us rather than a number that would invite comparison with complete meals.

What should I look for on a treat label?

A short ingredient list, named animal sources instead of generic terms, and no artificial colours or preservatives. Printed quantities are a good transparency signal, though few treat labels provide them.

These points are derived from the published ingredient list, not a rating.

Final score

Contributions are rounded to two decimals, so they may not sum exactly to the subtotal. The full coefficient table is published on the methodology page.

This is not a complete diet, so the 1-100 rating does not apply to it. Read the recipe breakdown above as ingredient-quality context only.

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

Not applicable to complementary food. FEDIAF reference ranges apply to complete diets.

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.

Capped at 60: mandatory items missing (Analytical constituents declared, Additives declared, Batch and date labelling).

Safety: recall history

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

No recalls recorded in our database.

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.

Claims on file; none we can check against the label
