Product description

Eight tins across three stews: chicken breast, beef, and chicken breast with lamb. They are proper stews rather than pate, with named vegetables you can see in the tin, and they are meant to go over dry food rather than into the bowl alone.

The meat percentages are worth reading side by side. Chicken Breast Stew is 40% chicken breast. Beef Stew is 40% beef, but half of that is beef liver. Chicken Breast with Lamb is only 26% chicken breast plus 7% lamb and 7% lamb liver, which makes it the leanest on meat of the three despite reading like the richest. Energy runs 400, 488 and 433 kcal/kg respectively.

Three recipes, eight 156g tins
Chicken 40%, beef 40%, chicken and lamb 26% plus 14% lamb and liver
Vegetables named individually, not as derivatives
Feed up to two cans a day

Half the beef stew's meat is liver. That is not a fault, liver is nutrient-dense and dogs love it, but liver is very high in vitamin A and this is a topper going on top of a complete food that already contains it. If you feed the beef tins daily rather than rotating them, you are stacking liver on a diet that has already accounted for it.

Who it's for: owners of dry-fed adult dogs who want moisture and variety in the bowl without switching food.

Why we chose it

Variety packs usually hide a weak recipe behind two good ones. Here all three name their meat and their vegetables, and Applaws publish the calorie density per recipe so you can actually adjust the main meal. That is more honest labelling than most toppers manage.

Common questions

Can these tins be the whole meal?

No. Applaws call it a complementary pet food for adult dogs, so it needs a complete food underneath it.

How many tins a day?

Up to two, depending on size, weight, age and activity. Take the calories off the dry food you serve with it.

Which of the three has the most meat?

Chicken Breast Stew and Beef Stew are both 40%. The chicken with lamb is 26% chicken breast plus 7% lamb and 7% lamb liver.

Where are the protein and fat percentages?

Applaws do not print an analytical panel for this range on their own site. They give composition and kcal/kg only, and we have quoted exactly that.
