Our verdict

Is Nutrivet Super Premium Energy 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.

Complete extruded dry food for adult dogs, with chicken, lentils and maize as the main ingredients.

How we score

70% of this recipe has no printed percentage. Estimated shares are model estimates, not label facts.

Why you might choose it

  • High in protein: 33% protein on a dry-matter basis.
  • Declares energy content, which most labels omit.
  • Nutritionally complete: formulated to be fed as the whole diet.

Why you might not

  • 3 poor-graded ingredients make up about 28% of the recipe.
  • High in fat: 22% fat on a dry-matter basis.
  • 70% of the recipe mass has no printed percentage, so the exact split cannot be verified.

Who is this food for?

Suits

  • Labelled by the manufacturer for adult dogs
  • Doesn't list beef, turkey, lamb, venison, pork, duck as ingredients

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids chicken: the label lists chicken
  • Your dog avoids fish: the label lists fish oil
  • Your dog avoids grain: the label lists maize / corn
  • You want a single-protein recipe: this one lists more than one animal protein
  • You are limiting fat: 22.2% 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.

Recipe: how the 1-100 score is calculated

Why this score?

This recipe achieves an overall score of 49 out of 100. Being labelled nutritionally complete adds +2.3 points to the total. However, ingredients without printed percentages deducts -7.4, the processing format takes away -6.7, and the carbohydrate content reduces the score by -4.

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

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.

Calcium:phosphorus ratio1.41.4 (band 1 to 2%)94
Energy (kcal/100g)410455.650

Scored over 7 declared nutrients (combined weight 90); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score.

Portion-control flag: 410 kcal/100g as fed with fat at 22.2% dry matter, above the reference band. High-energy foods need smaller portions.

Declared fortification: 9 nutritional additives on the label
  • Vitamin A 20000 IU/kg
  • Vitamin D3 1500 IU/kg
  • Vitamin E 100 mg/kg
  • Iron 85 mg/kg
  • Iodine 2 mg/kg
  • Copper 10 mg/kg
  • Manganese 40 mg/kg
  • Zinc 130 mg/kg
  • Selenium 0.2 mg/kg

High confidence: full analysis plus minerals or omegas and declared energy.

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.
