Is Lenda Cuidados Especiales Pavo - Sin Cereales a good dog food?

We score it 49/100 (Average). This reflects the ingredient quality, composition and label transparency of the recipe as declared on the label.

How we score

Why this score?

This recipe achieves an overall rating of 49 out of 100. The inclusion of ingredients without printed percentages contributed -7.3 points, and the processing format adjusted the score by -6.7. Conversely, the overall quality of the ingredient list added +3.7 points, while being labelled nutritionally complete contributed +2.3 points to the final evaluation.

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

69% of this recipe has no printed percentage. Estimated shares are model estimates, not label facts.

The Recipe score measures how attractive and transparent the declared ingredient list is. It is not, by itself, proof that the food is nutritionally appropriate for long-term feeding. The Nutritional and Evidence scores measure what we can verify towards that stronger claim.

Complete extruded dry food for dogs of all life stages, with dehydrated turkey protein, potato starch and pea starch as the main ingredients.

Why you might choose it

  • Prints ingredient percentages on the label.
  • Doesn't list grain ingredients.
  • Nutritionally complete: formulated to be fed as the whole diet.

Why you might not

  • Around 31% of the recipe is generic or unspecified ingredients.
  • Meat makes up an estimated 4% of the dry matter (8% as fed); carbohydrates dominate.

Who is this food for?

Suits

  • Labelled by the manufacturer for all lifestages
  • Grain-free: no grain ingredients listed
  • Doesn't list beef, lamb, venison, pork, duck as ingredients

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids chicken: the label lists chicken oil and fat
  • Your dog avoids turkey: the label lists dehydrated turkey protein
  • 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. Use the homepage filter to 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 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.

Scored over 6 declared nutrients (combined weight 80); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score. Moisture was not declared and was estimated at 9.5% from the food type.

Declared fortification: 12 nutritional additives on the label
  • sulfato de condroitina 500 mg/kg
  • sulfato de glucosamina 500 mg/kg
  • MSM (Metilsulfonilmetano) 200 mg/kg
  • Hierro (como carbonato de hierro (II)) 195 mg/kg
  • Iodo (como Ioduro potásico) 2,2 mg/kg
  • Cobre (como sulfato de cobre (II) pentahidratado) 13 mg/kg
  • Manganeso (como óxido manganoso) 44,5 mg/kg

  • Selenio (como selenito sódico) 0,33 mg/kg
  • Vitamina A 16000 IU/kg
  • Vitamina D3 1550 IU/Kg
  • Vitamina E (α-Tocoferol) 110 mg/Kg

Low confidence: partial analysis or moisture 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.

ItemPoints
✓ Ingredient list on the label (mandatory)10/10
✓ Printed percentages on the label (31% of the recipe mass) (voluntary)6.2/20

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.
