Where the points went

The full breakdown, exactly as the algorithm scored it. How our rating works

Ingredient quality
Weighted ingredient quality 57/100 across 18 ingredients (declared percentages used for 9, position estimates for the rest). Legumes carry 32% of the recipe. The FDA found no causal link between legume-rich diets and canine heart disease (DCM), though some cardiologists advise caution - noted for information, not scored. Named meat is only 0% of the recognised recipe, so the quality score is anchored down towards a plant-led food.
18.2 / 40
Label clarity
Every ingredient individually named (+5); percentages cover 61% of the recipe (+3.7); recipe reads as a fixed formula (+2).
10.7 / 15
Additives
Unnamed preservative - the label does not say which (-4).
6 / 10
Red flags
No red-flag ingredients.
0 / 0
Meat content
Meat content not declared and no named meat leads the label.

Nutritional balance

Our analysis

Breaking the 48 down: the biggest single loss is ingredient quality, where it takes 18.2 of a possible 40.

The label declares no meat percentage at all, so there is no way to verify how much of the recipe is animal protein, and the ingredient list is only partly specific.

At about £1.16 a day to feed a 10kg dog, the question is not whether it is cheap but whether the label justifies the price - and on our scoring, it does not.

Feeding & cost

What a bag actually costs to feed - worked out per dog, not per pack.

Pack sizeRRPPer kg
10 kg£75.00£7.50

How heavy is your dog?

A typical 10 kg adult dog needs about 155 g a day = £1.16 / day, £35.26 / month.

How we work this out
  1. Energy: an adult dog at rest needs about 95 × weight0.75 kcal a day (the FEDIAF maintenance formula - a 10 kg dog works out near 534 kcal).
  2. Portion: divide that by this food's energy density, 345 kcal/100g, to get the grams above - a denser food needs fewer grams.
  3. Cost: multiply the grams by this food's price, £7.50 / kg, for the daily cost, then by 30.4 days for the month.

Estimates scale to your dog's weight and the food's calorie density - a denser food needs fewer grams. A rough guide; always follow the pack. Try the full feeding calculator
