Our verdict

Is The Farmer's Dog Chicken a good dog food?

This is a complementary food, not a complete diet, so it is not scored on our 1-100 scale. The ingredient breakdown below shows what is in it; a complementary food should be fed alongside, not instead of, a complete diet.

Complementary raw food for adult dogs, with chicken, bone and vegetables as the main ingredients.

How we score

What the label tells us

The parsed label contains 5 ingredient entries.
Names its animal sources (2 named ingredients).
Uses generic terms (Chicken): the specific animal source is not stated.
Lists no artificial colours or preservatives.
Prints quantities for 5 of 5 ingredient entries.

Why is this treat not scored?

Our 1 to 100 rating applies to complete everyday meals. Treats are presented through their ingredients, label facts and feeding information rather than a number that could be mistaken for a meal rating.

What should I look for on a treat label?

Look for the ingredient list, named animal sources where species matters to you, any printed quantities, additive declarations, energy and the feeding guide. Single-ingredient products can be simpler, but are not automatically better for every dog or purpose.

These facts come from the manufacturer's published ingredient list.

Who is this food for?

Suits

Labelled by the manufacturer for adult dogs
Grain-free: no grain ingredients listed
Doesn't list turkey, lamb, fish, venison, pork, duck as ingredients

Consider something else if:

Your dog avoids chicken: the label lists chicken
Your dog avoids beef: the label lists beef liver
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.

Feeding and storage

Storage

Store frozen until required. Defrost in a sealed container at the bottom of the fridge. Once defrosted, store at the bottom of the fridge and use within 48 hours.

Remove and safely dispose of any uneaten raw food as soon as your pet has finished eating.
