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.

Ingredient notes

1 ingredient costs 5 points: carrageenan. 1 more noted. 24 flagged nothing.

  • 1 costs points
  • 1 noted
  • 24 nothing flagged
  • CarrageenanCosts 5 points
    Why it costs points

    A thickener (E407). EU assessors found food-grade carrageenan safe for dogs at normal levels; the cancer concern you may read about relates to a different, degraded form that isn't used in food.

  • Yucca extractNoted, no points taken
    Feed 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.
