20.7 / 45 points- Meat on the label17.2 / 35 points
49% declared meat, as weighed before cooking; full marks at 100%.
- Protein level3.5 / 10 points
Protein is 40.9% of the food with the water taken out. Nothing at 20% or less, full marks at 80%.
How much starch?
12.7 / 20 pointsEstimated carbohydrate: About 21.8% carbohydrate with the water taken out (our estimate). Full marks with no carbohydrate, none at 60% or more.
How processed?
8 / 20 pointsHow it’s made: Cooked in the tin, tray or pouch: 8 of 20.
What kind of meat?
12 / 15 points- How the meat is listed12 / 12 points
The label lists the meat as fresh, which earns 100% of these points. Fresh or raw named meat earns all of them, dried 70%, meal half, hydrolysed a quarter, an unnamed category none.
- Organ meat0 / 3 points
No organ meat named.
Points lost for ingredients: Carrageenan (−5), Sodium tripolyphosphate (−5). Together they cost 10 points.
Each bar is as long as the points it is worth, out of 100 in all.
Against other wet foods
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.
How we rate foods →Ingredient notes
2 ingredients cost 10 points: carrageenan and sodium tripolyphosphate. 1 more noted.
- 2 cost points
- 1 noted
- 24 nothing flagged
- CarrageenanCosts 5 pointsThickener / gelling agent
Why it costs points and sources
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.
- Sodium tripolyphosphateCosts 5 pointsPhosphate salt
Why it costs points and sources
An added phosphate. In dog trials, easily absorbed phosphates raised hormone levels linked to kidney strain; the trials used high doses and long-term harm isn't shown.
- 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.
24 ingredients with nothing flagged
