How we got this score
Read from: a photo of this product’s label, taken before we started keeping photos in September 2026.
Scored August 2026: Everyone sees this same score. It changes only if the recipe or our reading of the label is corrected.
How the score works: our method. It describes the label, not your pet — ask your vet about your pet's diet.
What hurt the score
The biggest factors, largest first.
- Chicken by-product meal first — unnamed by-products as main protein
- Plant protein reliance — wheat/corn gluten inflate protein
- Grain fillers high — brewers rice, corn near top
- Moderate dry-matter protein — adequate but not carnivore-ideal
What helped the score
