Our verdict

Is Nutriment Fresh Medallions - Beef a good dog food?

We score it 63/100 (Average). This reflects the ingredient quality, composition and label transparency of the recipe as declared on the label.

Complete frozen fresh food for dogs of all life stages, with muscle meat, beef tripe and beef kidney as the main ingredients.

How we score

77% of this recipe has no printed percentage. Estimated shares are model estimates, not label facts.

Why you might choose it

  • Meat makes up an estimated 55% of the dry matter (74% as fed).
  • Prints ingredient percentages on the label.
  • Doesn't list grain ingredients.

Why you might not

  • High in fat: 29% fat on a dry-matter basis.
  • Needs freezer space and defrosting before serving.

Who is this food for?

Suits

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

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids beef: the label lists beef tripe
  • Your dog avoids fish: the label lists salmon oil
  • You want a single-protein recipe: this one lists more than one animal protein
  • You are limiting fat: 28.8% on a dry-matter basis is in the high band

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.

Score details and methodologyCalculations, history and evidence

Recipe: how the 1-100 score is calculated

Why this score?

The overall score is 63 out of 100. Ingredients without printed percentages dragged the score down by -8.1 points, which was the biggest single factor in this case. The overall quality of the ingredient list contributed +6.6 points to lift the score. The oil and fat content reduced the score by -3.8 points, and the processing format reduced it by -2.4 points.

Scored with model v3 on 2026-10-25. Each component is the feature value for this product multiplied by the model's published coefficient.

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
Protein15.241.3 (band 18 to 40%)100
Fat10.628.8 (band 5.5 to 20%)100
Fibre1.333.6 (band 0.5 to 5%)100

Scored over 3 declared nutrients (combined weight 50); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score.

Declared fortification: 9 nutritional additives on the label
  • Vit A 4310 I.U
  • Vit D3 431 I.U
  • Vit E 143 mg
  • Iron 22 mg
  • Iodine 1.1 mg
  • Copper 2.2 mg

  • Selenium 0.09 mg

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.

Safety: recall history

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

  • "No grains or filler" — supported by the declared grain-free data.
  • "grain-free" — supported by the declared grain-free data.

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

Moderate: every checkable claim is consistent with the declared label.
