Our verdict
Is Pure Pet Food Game with duck, turkey & a trio of greens a good dog food?
We score it 81/100 (Good). This reflects the ingredient quality, composition and label transparency of the recipe as declared on the label.
Complete air-dried food for dogs of all life stages, with dried duck protein, potatoes and dehydrated turkey protein as the main ingredients.
Only part of the analytical constituents are declared, so the nutritional picture is incomplete.
56% of this recipe has no printed percentage. Estimated shares are model estimates, not label facts.
Who is this food for?
Suits
- Labelled by the manufacturer for all lifestages
- Grain-free: no grain ingredients listed
- Doesn't list chicken, beef, lamb, fish, venison, pork as ingredients
Consider something else if:
- Your dog avoids turkey: the label lists dehydrated turkey protein
- Your dog avoids duck: the label lists dried duck 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. 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.
| Nutrient | As fed (label) | Dry matter (scored) | Score |
|---|---|---|---|
| Protein | 41 | 45.7 (band 19.443207126948778 to 40%) | 100 |
| Fat | 17 | 18.9 (band 5.940979955456571 to 20%) | 100 |
| Fibre | 3.5 | 3.9 (band 0.5 to 5%) | 100 |
| Energy (kcal/100g) | 388 | 432.1 | 100 |
Scored over 4 declared nutrients (combined weight 60); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score. Moisture was not declared and was estimated at 10.2% from the food type.
Declared fortification: 12 nutritional additives on the label
- Vitamin A 15,000IU
- Vitamin D3 1500IU
- Vitamin E 200mg
- Beta carotene 20mg
- Taurine 1,000mg
- L-carnitine 250mg
- Zinc (as zinc chloride hydroxide monohydrate) 100mg
- Iron (as iron(ll) chelate of protein hydrolysates) 60mg
- Manganese (as manganese chelate of protein hydrolysates) 25mg
- Copper (as copper(ll) chelate of protein hydrolysate) 10mg
- Iodine (as calcium iodate, anhydrous) 2mg
- Selenium (as sodium selenite) 0.05mg
Low confidence: partial analysis or moisture 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.
| Item | Points |
|---|---|
| Ingredient list on the label (mandatory) | 10/10 |
| Printed percentages on the label (44.4% of the recipe mass) (voluntary) | 8.9/20 |
| Analytical constituents declared (mandatory) - not on file | 0/15 |
| Additives declared (mandatory) | 5/10 |
| Energy value declared (voluntary) | 5/5 |
| Complete/complementary designation (mandatory) | 5/5 |
| Feeding guidance given (mandatory) - not on file | 0/10 |
| Manufacturer identity and address (mandatory) | 5/10 |
| Country of manufacture stated (voluntary) | 10/10 |
| Batch and date labelling (mandatory) - not on file | 0/5 |

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.
