What the score means
One scale for every food: meat (45 points), starch (20), how it’s made (20) and kind of meat (15), minus points for a few listed ingredients. It rates the recipe, not your dog.
75 and over is excellent, 60 to 74 good, 45 to 59 fair and under 45 weak.

- Yucca extractNoted, no points takenFeed material (flavouring)
Why it’s noted and sources
Added to reduce stool odour. The ASPCA lists the yucca plant as toxic to dogs, and in a dog study the extract raised a liver enzyme at 750 mg/kg of food, though not at 500. Labels rarely give the amount. We note it, but take no points off.
22 ingredients with nothing flagged
Animal fats, antioxidants, apples, beef, beet pulp, blueberries, courgette, cranberries, dandelion root, fennel, fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS), green-lipped mussel, linseed (flaxseed), mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS), minerals, nettle, peas, potato, rosemary, sweet potato, yeast
We couldn’t read an amount we can check on the label, so no points were taken: vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol)
Checked against the EU Catalogue of Feed Materials and FEDIAF guidelines.
