Lamb & Rice With Veg Dog Training Treats
This is sold as a treat, not as an everyday meal. The 1–100 rating applies to complete meals, so it isn't scored. Ingredient breakdown below.

Our verdict

Is Wainwright's Lamb & Rice With Veg Dog Training Treats a good dog food?

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

Complementary treats for adult dogs, with dried lamb protein, lamb and rice as the main ingredients.

How we score

27% of this recipe has no printed percentage. Estimated shares are model estimates, not label facts.

Why you might choose it

  • Meat makes up an estimated 44% of the dry matter (40% as fed).
  • Prints ingredient percentages on the label.
  • High in protein: 30% protein on a dry-matter basis.

Why you might not

  • A treat, not a complete diet: feed as an extra, not the whole diet.

Who is this food for?

Suits

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

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids lamb: the label lists dried lamb protein
  • Your dog avoids fish: the label lists salmon oil
  • 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.

What the label tells us

  • The label lists 19 ingredients.
  • Names its animal sources (1 named ingredient).
  • Uses generic terms (Lamb): the specific animal source is not stated.
  • Lists no artificial colours or preservatives.
  • Prints quantities for 8 ingredients.
Why is this treat not scored?

Our 1 to 100 rating applies to complete diets, so treats and complementary foods are presented as what the label tells us rather than a number that would invite comparison with complete meals.

What should I look for on a treat label?

A short ingredient list, named animal sources instead of generic terms, and no artificial colours or preservatives. Printed quantities are a good transparency signal, though few treat labels provide them.

These points are derived from the published ingredient list, not a rating.

Storage

Feeding guide

Feed as a treat or a reward anytime as part of a balanced diet. Ensure you select the appropriate size treat for your dog and break into smaller pieces if necessary, also taking into consideration their feeding behaviour. It is important not to overfeed your dog. Treats should be given on a non-stainable surface. Always provide plenty of fresh water for your pet.

Contributions are rounded to two decimals, so they may not sum exactly to the subtotal. The full coefficient table is published on the methodology page.

This is not a complete diet, so the 1-100 rating does not apply to it. Read the recipe breakdown above as ingredient-quality context only.

Score history across model versions

The score shown above is always computed with the latest published model. Earlier scores are kept for the record and are never edited or deleted; a scoring change ships as a new model version with a public write-up on the methodology page.

Safety: recall history

Recall and safety-notice history, time-decayed. This dimension is shown alongside the score and never feeds the headline number.

No recalls recorded in our database.

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.

67/100 · limited — 3 checkable claims: 2 consistent, 1 contradicted.

Contradicted by the label

  • "Made from a single source protein" — the declared label says otherwise on single protein.

Consistent with the label

  • "Hypoallergenic, easy to digest formulations - No added dairy, wheat, pork, soya" — supported by the declared pork data.
  • "British-made, hypoallergenic treats with lamb protein, digestible rice, and oats for energy." — supported by the declared made in the UK data.

8 further claims on file that we cannot check against the label.

Limited: at least one claim contradicts the declared label, or a recent upheld ASA ruling applies.
