This is a treat, not a complete diet. The 1–100 rating applies to complete foods, so it isn't scored. Ingredient breakdown below.

Is Nature's Deli Liver Paste Pouch 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.

50% of this recipe has no printed percentage. Estimated shares are model estimates, not label facts.

Complementary wet paté treats for dogs of all life stages, with chicken liver, tapioca and fish oil as the main ingredients.

Why you might choose it

Doesn't list grain ingredients.
High in protein: 50% protein on a dry-matter basis.

Why you might not

A treat, not a complete diet: feed as an extra, not the whole diet.
50% of the recipe mass has no printed percentage, so the exact split cannot be verified.

What the label tells us

The label lists 5 ingredients.
Names its animal sources (1 named ingredient).
Every animal ingredient is a named source.
Lists no artificial colours or preservatives.
Prints quantities for 1 ingredient.

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.

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.

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.

✓ Printed percentages on the label (50% of the recipe mass) (voluntary)	10/20
✓ Analytical constituents declared (mandatory)	15/15
✓ Additives declared (mandatory)	5/10
✗ Energy value declared (voluntary) - not on file	0/5
✓ Complete/complementary designation (mandatory)	5/5
✓ Feeding guidance given (mandatory)	10/10
✓ Manufacturer identity and address (mandatory)	5/10
✓ Country of manufacture stated (voluntary)	10/10
✗ Batch and date labelling (mandatory) - not on file	0/5
