Our verdict

Is Webbox Everyday Chicken Complete Dry Puppy Food a good dog food?

We score it 32/100 (Poor). The main reasons are set out in "Why you might not" below, and every step of the calculation is shown under "How we calculated this score".

Complete extruded dry food for puppies, with cereals, meat and animal derivatives and chicken as the main ingredients.

How we score

78% of this recipe has no printed percentage. Estimated shares are model estimates, not label facts.

Why you might choose it

  • Prints ingredient percentages on the label.
  • High in protein: 47% protein on a dry-matter basis.

Why you might not

  • 6 poor-graded ingredients make up about 47% of the recipe.
  • High in fat: 28% fat on a dry-matter basis.
  • Its additive load costs about 3 points in the rating.

Who is this food for?

Suits

  • Labelled by the manufacturer for puppies
  • Doesn't list beef, turkey, lamb, venison, pork, duck as ingredients

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids chicken: the label lists chicken
  • Your dog avoids fish: the label lists crustaceans
  • Your dog avoids grain: the label lists cereals
  • You want a single-protein recipe: this one lists more than one animal protein
  • You are limiting fat: 27.8% on a dry-matter basis is in the high 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.

Recipe: how the 1-100 score is calculated

Why this score?

The overall score came in at 32 out of 100. Undeclared ingredient shares, where key ingredients are listed without printed percentages, pulled the score down by -8.2 points. The processing format contributed -6.7 points, the additive load contributed -3.1 points, and lower-quality ingredients contributed -3 points, all of which reduced the total.

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 puppies and growth. 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.

Scored against FEDIAF growth minima; puppy scoring is under review.

NutrientAs fed (label)Dry matter (scored)Score
Protein33.546.5100
Fat2027.8100

Scored over 2 declared nutrients (combined weight 40); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score.

Declared fortification: 9 nutritional additives on the label
  • Vitamin A 19000 IU/kg
  • Vitamin D3 1900 IU/kg
  • Vitamin E 110 mg/kg
  • Ferrous sulphate monohydrate 133 mg/kg
  • Copper sulphate pentahydrate 28 mg/kg
  • Manganese sulphate monohydrate 94 mg/kg
  • Zinc sulphate monohydrate 278 mg/kg
  • Calcium iodate 1.6 mg/kg
  • Sodium selenite 0.55 mg/kg

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.

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.
