Our verdict

Is Solid Gold Mighty Mini Turkey Wet Food for Toy & Small Dogs a good dog food?

We score it 52/100 (Average). This reflects the ingredient quality, composition and label transparency of the recipe as declared on the label.

How we score

Only part of the analytical constituents are declared, so the nutritional picture is incomplete.

100% of this recipe has no printed percentage. Estimated shares are model estimates, not label facts.

Why you might choose it

Doesn't list grain ingredients.
High in protein: 42% protein on a dry-matter basis.
Declares energy content, which most labels omit.

Why you might not

Meat makes up an estimated 7% of the dry matter (10% as fed); carbohydrates dominate.
100% of the recipe mass has no printed percentage, so the exact split cannot be verified.
Its additive load costs about 4 points in the rating.

Who is this food for?

Suits

Labelled by the manufacturer for all lifestages
Labelling or feeding guide is aimed at small dogs
Grain-free: no grain ingredients listed
Doesn't list chicken, beef, lamb, venison, pork, duck as ingredients

Consider something else if:

Your dog avoids turkey: the label lists turkey
Your dog avoids fish: the label lists fish oil
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.

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.

Guaranteed-analysis FEDIAF score: crude minimums and maximums are bounds, not typical values; moisture (a maximum) uses the processing median where available; experimental US score.

Nutrient	As fed (label)	Dry matter (scored)	Score
Protein	7.5	34.1 (band 18 to 40%)	100
Fat	3	13.6 (band 5.5 to 20%)	100
Fibre	1	4.5 (band 0.5 to 5%)	100
Energy (kcal/100g)	87.8	399.1	100

Scored over 4 declared nutrients (combined weight 60); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score. Moisture was not declared and was estimated at 78% from the food type.

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.
