Like whatever’s left in the truckstop servo—fills the belly, but you’re not quite sure what’s in it.
The Quick Bite
This one offers decent fuel for big dogs, with solid fat levels, good calories, and some joint-friendly extras — but the devil’s in the detail. Vague meat terms, plant protein up top, and a filler-heavy carb profile bring it down a peg. It'll hold up for day-to-day feeding, but for long-term joint health and muscle maintenance, there are cleaner picks out there.
What It Gets Right
✔ Good protein level (25%) – solid for large breed upkeep.
✔ Ideal fat content (15%) – supports coat health, joints and energy levels.
✔ Calorie content (360 kcal/100g) – great for daily feeding without overloading.
✔ Fat sources are clean – chicken fat and sunflower oil do the job.
✔ Some functional support – green lipped mussel, inulin, taurine.
Where It Falls Short
❌ Vague meat sourcing – “lamb and/or sheep meal” is too non-committal.
❌ Maize gluten in the top 5 – early plant protein presence reduces meat quality.
❌ Poor transparency – vague terms like “natural flavour” and “antioxidants.”
❌ Omega imbalance (~11.5:1) – not ideal for joint or skin health in large breeds.
❌ Filler-heavy carb load – white rice, rice flour, and sorghum dominate early.
