Our verdict

Is Trophy Super Premium Grain-Free Duck & Vegetable a good dog food?

We score it 64/100 (Average). This reflects the ingredient quality, composition and label transparency of the recipe as declared on the label.

Complete extruded dry food for dogs of all life stages, with dried duck protein, peas and potatoes as the main ingredients.

How we score

Declared analysis sits below the FEDIAF minimum for protein, fat.

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

Why you might choose it

  • Meat makes up an estimated 39% of the dry matter (36% as fed).
  • Prints ingredient percentages on the label.
  • Doesn't list grain ingredients.

Why you might not

  • Low in protein: 0% protein on a dry-matter basis.

Who is this food for?

Suits

  • Labelled by the manufacturer for all lifestages
  • Grain-free: no grain ingredients listed
  • Doesn't list beef, turkey, lamb, venison, pork as ingredients

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids chicken: the label lists chicken oil and fat
  • Your dog avoids fish: the label lists green-lipped mussel
  • Your dog avoids duck: the label lists dried duck protein
  • You want a single-protein recipe: this one lists more than one animal protein
  • You need more protein than this: 0.3% on a dry-matter basis is in the low band

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.

NutrientAs fed (label)Dry matter (scored)Score
Protein0.260.3 (band 18 to 40%)1.1
Fat0.170.2 (band 5.5 to 20%)2.4
Fibre0.030 (band 0.5 to 5%)63.8

Scored over 3 declared nutrients (combined weight 50); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score. Moisture was not declared and was estimated at 9.5% from the food type.

No nutritional additives section declared on the label.

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.
