Where the points went

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

Ingredient quality
Weighted ingredient quality 61/100 across 13 ingredients (declared percentages used for 11, position estimates for the rest). Named meat is only 14% of the recognised recipe, so the quality score is anchored down towards a plant-led food.
22.5 / 40
Label clarity
Every ingredient individually named (+5); percentages cover 100% of the recipe (+6); meat sources named (+2); recipe reads as a fixed formula (+2).
15 / 15
Additives
No artificial colours, flavours, controversial preservatives or added sugars found.

Our analysis

Breaking the 73 down: the biggest single loss is ingredient quality, where it takes 22.5 of a possible 40. Its strongest showing is label transparency at 15 of 15.

The label declares 14.5% meat, which is a low figure, and a declared low figure is still more honest than silence, and the ingredient list names things individually rather than hiding them in catch-all categories.

Feeding & cost

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

Pack sizeRRPPer kg
2 kg£11.99£6.00

How heavy is your dog?

A typical 15 kg adult dog needs about 197 g a day = £1.18 / day, £35.87 / 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 15 kg dog works out near 725 kcal).
  2. Portion: divide that by this food's energy density, 367 kcal/100g, to get the grams above - a denser food needs fewer grams.
  3. Cost: multiply the grams by this food's price, £6.00 / 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
