Against other dry 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 →Less starch in the bowl
Half and half by calories with Happy Dog Pure Goat Dog Food (Sardinia) (scores 83): carbs fall from 41% to 26% by dry weight, and protein is about 42%.
Worked out from both labels, for half the day’s calories from each food. The feeding guides on the packs still set the amounts.

- Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol)Costs 15 pointsNutritional additive (vitamin)
Why it costs points and sources
Declared 3050.0 iu/kg is over the legal maximum (Reg (EU) 2017/1492 ('other species'): EU legal maximum 2,000 IU/kg complete feed.)
- 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.
