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

"Monoprotein" — the declared label says otherwise on single protein.

Consistent with the label

"Ohne Mais, Gluten, Soja, Geschmacksverstärkern & künstlichen Zusätzen (ausgenommen Vitamine & Mineralstoffe)" — supported by the declared grain-free data.
"Ohne Getreide, da es im Beuteschema des Urahns des Hundes nicht vorkommt und zudem zu den häufigsten Allergieauslösern bei Hunden zählt" — supported by the declared grain-free 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.
