Our verdict

Is Terra Canis Ente mit Naturreis, Roter Bete, Birne und Sesam a good dog food?

We score it 59/100 (Average). This reflects the ingredient quality, composition and label transparency of the recipe as declared on the label.

Complete wet food in chunks for adult dogs, with heart, liver and cooking broth as the main ingredients.

How we score

Why you might choose it

  • Prints ingredient percentages on the label.
  • Prints a percentage for nearly every ingredient, so the recipe is fully auditable.
  • High in protein: 36% protein on a dry-matter basis.

Why you might not

  • Around 93% of the recipe is generic or unspecified ingredients.
  • Meat makes up an estimated 0% of the dry matter; carbohydrates dominate.

Who is this food for?

Suits

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

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids fish: the label lists oyster shell
  • Your dog avoids duck: the label lists duck heart
  • Your dog avoids grain: the label lists rice - white
  • 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.

Recipe: how the 1-100 score is calculated

Why this score?

The product received a score of 59 out of 100. The overall quality of the ingredient list contributed +1.2 points, while ingredients we could not classify reduced the score by -2.2 points. The remaining ingredients lowered the score by -1.1 points, and the processing format also had a negative effect of -0.7 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
Protein7.535.9 (band 18 to 40%)100
Fat3.617.2 (band 5.5 to 20%)100
Fibre0.83.8 (band 0.5 to 5%)100

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

No nutritional additives section declared on the label.

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.

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.
