Our take on Piccolo
Written by us, from the labels. Never written, reviewed or paid for by the brand.
Piccolo is a small-breed specialist from the makers of Canagan, and both of the foods we hold score identically: an average of 86/100 (Very good), ranking 40 of 304, with a spread of 1. There is no weaker option to avoid here.
Small-breed food is one of the more honest bits of segmentation in this market. Kibble size genuinely matters for a small mouth, and smaller dogs eat less by weight so the food needs to carry more per gram. That is a real formulation problem rather than an invented one.
Where it stops being honest across the industry generally is price. Smaller bags almost always cost more per kilo, and "small breed" on the front is frequently the same recipe pressed into a smaller shape. What our score reads is the label, and on that basis these two are properly built: grain-free, meat-led and specific about what is in them.
Two foods is a narrow range, so treat this as a considered choice rather than a brand you can shop across. If you have a small dog and a budget that stretches, it is a sound pick. If it does not, compare against standard adult recipes below on price per day before assuming you need the small-breed version.
