Our take on Dr John

Written by us, from the labels. Never written, reviewed or paid for by the brand.

Dr John is one of the cheapest foods on this site - about £0.25 a day at the low end - and the range is wide: 53 points from 21 to 74, across 7 rated foods, averaging 57/100 (Average) and ranking 228 of 304.

The top end, Dr John Grain Free at 74/100, is respectable for the money. The rest is cereal-led with broad ingredient descriptions, which is how a food reaches this price.

This is a working and kennel brand sold in large sacks. For someone feeding several active dogs the economics are difficult to argue with, and dogs have been fed on this sort of diet for decades.

Our score reads labels, so plain-but-cheap lands where you would expect. That is the system working as intended rather than a verdict on whether the food does its job.

If you feed here, note the specific product that scored well - the spread is too wide to buy blind.
