🦴 Protein Score: ⭐ 3/5
Crude Protein: 25% (Good for large dogs)
Main Sources: Chicken Meal, Turkey Meal
Why Not Higher?
Protein content could be higher.
Protein is not first ingredient listed, suggesting a carb heavy formula.
Food uses chicken meal as the primary protein, the secondary meat source (turkey meal) appears further down the list, meaning it likely contributes less to overall protein content.
🔥 Fat Score: ⭐ 1/5
Fat Content: 9% (Too Low for Large Dogs)
Fat Sources: Chicken Fat, Sunflower Oil
Omega-6 to Omega-3 Ratio: estimated 11:1 (Slightly high, causing a penalty)
⚠️While 9% fat is safe, it may not be the most optimal for long-term weight control due to potential hunger, slowing metabolism and a less ideal fatty acid balance.
🥩 Ingredient Quality Score: ⭐ 3.5/5
Ingredient Transparency: Mostly clear apart from 'Natural flavour'
Filler Alert! Contains sorghum (moderate filler).
Functional Boost! Green Lipped Mussel (Joint Support), L-Carnitine (Metabolism), Chondroitin & Glucosamine (Joint Health).
⚡ Caloric Density Score: ⭐ 4/5
Calories: 345 kcal/100g (Great for weight management).
⭐ 3.3 / 5
Like putting a big bloke on a rabbit diet—lean and well-meaning, but not quite satisfying.
The Quick Bite
This weight-control formula for big dogs ticks a fair few boxes—25% protein from chicken meal, a tidy 345 kcal/100g, and joint support from green-lipped mussel, glucosamine, and L-carnitine to keep those heavy-duty hips moving. Sounds like a solid plan, right? But the recipe has high carb content and the fat content’s only 9%, which might leave your dog sniffing around for seconds—and that low fat could slow things down over time. Sorghum sneaks in as a filler, and the omega ratio (11:1) isn’t doing any favours for inflammation. Good for trimming down with joint perks, but not quite the full package.
What It Gets Right
✔ Decent protein (25%)—great for muscle maintenance.
✔ Joint support—Green Lipped Mussel, Glucosamine, and Chondroitin.
✔ Calorie-controlled (345 kcal/100g)—ideal for weight management.
Where It Falls Short
❌ Very low fat (9%) and high in carbs—won't keep dogs full for long.
❌ Omega-6 to omega-3 ratio (11:1)—not the best for inflammation control.
❌ Moderate filler content—sorghum slightly reduces ingredient quality.
❌ Protein is not first ingredient (rice is first).
