On the chicken content

The composition lists poultry meal as the lead ingredient, and Dr John's own feeding guide is detailed by weight and age band — but the exact chicken percentage within that poultry meal isn't something we can confirm beyond what's stated in the composition itself, so treat any specific chicken percentage you see elsewhere with some caution.

Why we chose it

It's built for a genuinely different energy requirement than a standard puppy food. That's worth paying attention to, rather than assuming any puppy food will do for a working-line pup.

— Matt, founder

Full description

Working and sporting puppies burn through energy at a rate that a standard puppy food isn't always built to match, which is the gap Dr John's Puppy recipe is aimed at. It's formulated specifically for puppies of sporting and working breeds rather than puppies generally.

The recipe leads with poultry meal, wheat, barley and maize, with chicken fat, maize gluten, beet pulp and salmon oil at 1.25% as a source of Omega-3, plus FOS and yucca extract. Crude protein sits at 27% with crude oils and fats at 15%, a richer profile than most everyday puppy foods.

Poultry meal, wheat, barley, maize base
Crude protein 27%, crude oils and fats 15%
Crude fibre 2.5%, crude ash 7%
Salmon oil included (1.25%) as a source of Omega-3

On the chicken content. The composition lists poultry meal as the lead ingredient, and Dr John's own feeding guide is detailed by weight and age band — but the exact chicken percentage within that poultry meal isn't something we can confirm beyond what's stated in the composition itself, so treat any specific chicken percentage you see elsewhere with some caution.

Who it's for: owners of a puppy from a working or sporting breed with genuinely high energy needs, rather than a companion puppy that would do fine on a standard recipe.
