Our verdict

Is Sundays for Dogs Fish Recipe a good dog food?

We score it 54/100 (Average). This reflects the ingredient quality, composition and label transparency of the recipe as declared on the label.

How we score

100% of this recipe has no printed percentage. Estimated shares are model estimates, not label facts.

Why you might choose it

  • Single named animal protein: fish.
  • Nutritionally complete: formulated to be fed as the whole diet.

Why you might not

  • Meat makes up an estimated 6% of the dry matter (11% as fed); carbohydrates dominate.
  • No analytical breakdown is published.
  • 100% of the recipe mass has no printed percentage, so the exact split cannot be verified.

Who is this food for?

Suits

  • Labelled by the manufacturer for all lifestages
  • Single named protein: fish
  • Doesn't list chicken, beef, turkey, lamb, venison, pork, duck as ingredients

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids grain: the label lists millet

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.
