Barking Heads dog food
Barking Heads is a natural, protein-led dog food range covering life-stage and size-specific lines, from puppy food through to senior formulas and options for smaller and larger breeds. We don't publish a separate star-rating page for the brand here — for feedback on a specific product, the individual product page is the place to look.
What the range covers
The Barking Heads line-up is built around named ranges for different life stages and sizes: options for puppies, a senior formula, a range for smaller breeds, and larger-breed formulas alongside the core adult recipes. This structure makes it reasonably straightforward to find the right starting point for your dog's age and size.
Recipes are generally built around a named single protein or a clear combination, in wet pouch and dry formats depending on the specific product, which suits owners looking for a straightforward ingredients list they can read and understand at a glance.
The naming across the range tends to describe either the life stage or size it's aimed at — puppy, senior, smaller breeds, larger breeds — rather than a marketing name that gives no clue what the product is actually for, which makes browsing the range reasonably quick even without prior familiarity with the brand.
Choosing within the range
Start from your dog's life stage and size rather than the flavour, since Barking Heads' range structure is built around exactly that distinction — a puppy-specific formula, a senior recipe, and separate lines for smaller and larger breeds each reflect different nutritional needs rather than just marketing variety.
If your dog has a known sensitivity to a particular protein, checking the named main ingredient on each product before choosing is straightforward, since the range generally makes this clear on the front of the pack rather than burying it in small print. It's still worth reading the full ingredients panel rather than the front-of-pack name alone, since a recipe named for one protein can still include others further down the list.

Common questions
- Does Barking Heads make food for puppies?
- Yes, there's a puppy-specific line within the range, formulated for the different nutritional needs of a growing dog rather than using the standard adult recipe. Check the pack for the age range it's intended for.
- Is Barking Heads a grain-free brand?
- Some products within the range are grain-free while others aren't, so it's worth checking the specific product's ingredients list rather than assuming the whole range follows one approach, since this varies by individual recipe.
- Where can I see reviews for a specific Barking Heads product?
- Check that product's own page, where any customer feedback specific to that recipe is shown. We don't run a separate combined rating for the brand as a whole, since a single score across very different recipes wouldn't tell you much about any one of them.
- Does Barking Heads make food for senior dogs?
- Yes, there's a senior-specific line in the range, formulated with an older dog's changing needs in mind rather than the standard adult recipe. Check the pack to confirm the age range it's intended for.
