Nutribalance Dog Food Review & Ratings

Nutribalance is Pets at Home's own-brand food, which means you will only ever meet it in one shop. Across the 3 recipes we have rated it averages 69/100 (Good), with everything sitting between 67 and 72 - a spread of just 5 points.

Be aware that we hold fewer recipes than the range actually contains, and the ones we have rated skew towards puppy and large-breed dry food. The average above is honest about what we have checked, not a verdict on every bag on the shelf. As we add the rest, expect this page to move.

What we can say about the rated foods is that they are grain-inclusive dry recipes that do the ordinary things competently. Nutribalance Small & Medium Breed Puppy leads at 72/100. That is a respectable result for supermarket-adjacent own-brand pricing, and better than the cynical assumption most people make about retailer labels.

Own-brand food gets an unfair kicking generally. The thing actually worth watching with a retailer range is not quality but recipe changes, which happen quietly when a supplier contract moves and nothing on the front of the bag tells you. Check the ingredient panel occasionally rather than assuming the food you started on is the food you are still buying.

Reasonable, unexciting, convenient if you shop there anyway. Compare against the alternatives below on price per day before you commit to a big bag.
