Dry Cold Pressed complete Clear label
Is Tribal Croquettes pressées à froid Saumon Petites races a good dog food?
We score it 57/100 (Average). This reflects the ingredient quality, composition and label transparency of the recipe as declared on the label.
Why this score?
The overall quality of the ingredient list contributed +3.7 points, while being labelled nutritionally complete added +2.3. The processing format reduced the score by -6.7, and the carbohydrate content brought it down by -2.5. The final score is 57 out of 100.
Only part of the analytical constituents are declared, so the nutritional picture is incomplete.

The Recipe score measures how attractive and transparent the declared ingredient list is. It is not, by itself, proof that the food is nutritionally appropriate for long-term feeding. The Nutritional and Evidence scores measure what we can verify towards that stronger claim.
Complete cold-pressed dry food for adult dogs, with salmon, sweet potatoes and whiting as the main ingredients.

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 | 23 | 25.1 (band 18 to 40%) | 89.3 |
| Fat | 14 | 15.3 (band 5.5 to 20%) | 100 |
| Fibre | 2.4 | 2.6 (band 0.5 to 5%) | 98.2 |
| Calcium | 0.56 | 0.6 (band 0.5 to 2.5%) | 73.3 |
| Phosphorus | 0.5 | 0.5 (band 0.4 to 1.6%) | 77.3 |
| Calcium:phosphorus ratio | 1.1 | 1.1 (band 1 to 2%) | 77.2 |
| Omega fatty acids (omega-6 and omega-3) | - | - | 100 |
Omega fatty acids (omega-6 and omega-3): scored as the mean of its declared components (omega-6 100). The FEDIAF minimum for omega-6 is linoleic acid specifically.
Scored over 7 declared nutrients (combined weight 90); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score. Moisture was not declared and was estimated at 8.3% from the food type.
Declared fortification: 6 nutritional additives on the label
- Sulfate ferreux monohydraté 74 mg/kg
- Oxyde manganeux 27 mg/kg
- Sulfate cuivreux pentahydraté 13 mg/kg
- Sulfate de zinc monohydraté 130 mg/kg
- Iodate de calcium anhydre 1,3 mg/kg
- Sélénite de sodium 0,15 mg/kg
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 (80.1% of the recipe mass) (voluntary) | 16/20 |
| Analytical constituents declared (mandatory) - not on file | 0/15 |
| Additives declared (mandatory) | 10/10 |
| Energy value declared (voluntary) - not on file | 0/5 |
| Complete/complementary designation (mandatory) | 5/5 |
| Feeding guidance given (mandatory) | 10/10 |
| Manufacturer identity and address (mandatory) | 5/10 |
| Country of manufacture stated (voluntary) | 10/10 |
| Batch and date labelling (mandatory) - not on file | 0/5 |
Capped at 60: mandatory items missing (Analytical constituents declared, Batch and date labelling).
Safety: recall history

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.
100/100 · moderate — 1 checkable claim: 1 consistent, 0 contradicted.
Consistent with the label
- "sans céréales" — supported by the declared grain-free data.
6 further claims on file that we cannot check against the label.
Moderate: every checkable claim is consistent with the declared label.
