Our verdict

Is Orygo Duck Complete Wet Food for Dogs – Healthy and Pure a good dog food?

We score it 80/100 (Good). This reflects the ingredient quality, composition and label transparency of the recipe as declared on the label.

Complete wet paté food for dogs of all life stages, with duck, sweet potatoes and health mix: as the main ingredients.

How we score

Why you might choose it

  • Scores 80, in the top quarter of wet foods we track.
  • Meat makes up an estimated 89% of the dry matter (91% as fed).
  • Prints ingredient percentages on the label.

Why you might not

  • High in fat: 31% fat on a dry-matter basis.

Who is this food for?

Suits

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

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids fish: the label lists trout
  • Your dog avoids duck: the label lists duck
  • You want a single-protein recipe: this one lists more than one animal protein
  • You are limiting fat: 31.2% 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.

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
Protein9.839.2 (band 26.352 to 40%)100
Fat7.831.2 (band 8.052 to 20%)100
Fibre1.45.6 (band 0.5 to 5%)100
Energy (kcal/100g)146.4585.6100

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

Declared fortification: 14 nutritional additives on the label
  • L-Carnitine (500 mg/kg)
  • taurine (1000 mg/kg)
  • Vitamin A 14,400 IU
  • Vitamin D3 1,800 IU
  • Vitamin E 100 mg
  • Vitamin B2 (1.9 mg)
  • Vitamin B5 (7.8 mg)
  • Vitamin B12 (15 µg)
  • Folic Acid 0.9 mg
  • Zinc 185 mg
  • Iron 48 mg
  • Copper 7.5 mg
  • Iodine 0.95 mg
  • Selenium 0.14 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

Recall and safety-notice history, time-decayed. This dimension is shown alongside the score and never feeds the headline number.

No recalls recorded in our database.

See all current recalls we track.

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.

50/100 · limited — 2 checkable claims: 1 consistent, 1 contradicted.

Contradicted by the label

  • "Single Protein" — the declared label says otherwise on single protein.

Consistent with the label

  • "Grain-free" — supported by the declared grain-free data.

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

Limited: at least one claim contradicts the declared label, or a recent upheld ASA ruling applies.
