Our verdict

Is Yarrah Organic dog food chunks with chicken a good dog food?

We score it 52/100 (Average). This reflects the ingredient quality, composition and label transparency of the recipe as declared on the label.

Complete wet food in chunks for adult dogs, with carcass, chicken and chicken liver as the main ingredients.

How we score

65% 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: 37% protein on a dry-matter basis.
  • Nutritionally complete: formulated to be fed as the whole diet.

Why you might not

  • 1 poor-graded ingredient makes up about 37% of the recipe.
  • High in fat: 26% fat on a dry-matter basis.

Who is this food for?

Suits

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

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids chicken: the label lists chicken carcass
  • Your dog avoids grain: the label lists wheat
  • You are limiting fat: 26.3% 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.

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
Protein736.8 (band 18 to 40%)100
Fat526.3 (band 5.5 to 20%)100
Fibre0.42.1 (band 0.5 to 5%)91.4

Scored over 3 declared nutrients (combined weight 50); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score.

Declared fortification: 7 nutritional additives on the label
  • Vitamin A 1100 IU/kg
  • Vitamin D3 140 IU/kg
  • Vitamin E 10 mg/kg
  • Iodine 0.1 mg/kg
  • Copper 1.8 mg/kg
  • Manganese 2.0 mg/kg
  • Zinc 10.0 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.
