Is Lukullus Vitality Adult Grain-Free Immune System Support Wild Boar 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.

How we score

Why this score?

This recipe achieves an overall score of 69 out of 100 based on several key factors. The processing format detracts from the total with -7 points. Conversely, the overall quality of the ingredient list adds +6.7 points, while printing percentages on the label contributes +3.2 points. Finally, the meat content provides an additional +2.5 points to the final calculation.

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 adult dogs, with wild boar protein, peas and potatoes as the main ingredients.

Who is this food for?

Suits

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

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids chicken: the label lists hydrolysed chicken liver
  • Your dog avoids fish: the label lists salmon oil
  • Your dog avoids pork: the label lists wild boar protein
  • 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.

NutrientAs fed (label)Dry matter (scored)Score
Protein2527.8 (band 18 to 40%)96.7
Fat1516.7 (band 5.5 to 20%)100
Fibre44.4 (band 0.5 to 5%)100
Energy (kcal/100g)367.6408.4100

Scored over 4 declared nutrients (combined weight 60); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score.

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.
