Our verdict

Is Lily's Kitchen Organic Chicken with Vegetables Dry Food a good dog food?

We score it 58/100 (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 chicken, rice and barley as the main ingredients.

How we score

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

Why you might choose it

  • Prints ingredient percentages on the label.
  • Single named animal protein: chicken.
  • 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
  • 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.

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

Calcium:phosphorus ratio1.31.3 (band 1 to 2%)85
Omega fatty acids (omega-6 and omega-3)--100
Energy (kcal/100g)363401.1100

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: 8 nutritional additives on the label
  • Vitamin A 18,000 IU
  • Vitamin D3 1,800 IU
  • Vitamin E 150 IU
  • Zinc (Zinc Oxide) 50mg
  • Manganese (Manganous Sulphate Monohydrate) 10mg
  • Copper (Copper (II) Sulphate Pentahydrate) 9mg
  • Selenium (Organic Selenium S. cerevisiae CNCM 1-3060) 0.1mg
  • Iodine (Calcium Iodate Anhydrous) 0.5mg

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.

100/100 · moderate — 2 checkable claims: 2 consistent, 0 contradicted.

Consistent with the label

  • "Complete and balanced" — supported by the declared complete and balanced data.
  • "nutritionally complete, organic chicken and vegetable bake" — supported by the declared complete and balanced data.

4 further claims on file that we cannot check against the label.
