Pork isn't the first protein most owners reach for in a dog topper, which is exactly why it's worth trying on a dog that's already worked through the chicken and beef versions of everything else.

Forthglade's Pork Broth Topper is 98% pork bone broth, with green lipped mussel (0.2%), glucosamine (0.2%), chondroitin (0.2%), turmeric (0.2%) and parsley (0.1%) added — a slightly broader joint-support blend than Forthglade's own beef version, which doesn't include the green lipped mussel. It's grain-free and complementary, with the same guidance as the rest of the range: around 45g added to dry food daily, four servings per 180g pouch, reducing the main meal slightly to account for the extra calories. Protein sits at 3.5%, fat at 1%, fibre at 0.6%, ash at 1.2%, moisture at 95%, at 15.97kcal per 100g.

• Pork bone broth 98%
• Green lipped mussel, glucosamine, chondroitin and turmeric at 0.2% each
• ~45g a day added to dry food (4 servings per 180g pouch)
• 15.97kcal/100g
• Grain-free; a topper, not a meal replacement
• A broader joint blend than Forthglade's beef version

What the joint blend doesn't confirm. As with the other broth toppers in this range, the joint-support ingredients are present at small percentages with no dosed clinical amount stated, so this is an ingredient inclusion rather than a measured supplement. Pork is also a less commonly rotated protein, so it's worth confirming there's no known sensitivity to it before introducing it for the first time.

Who it's for: owners wanting to introduce a less common protein alongside a joint-support blend, for a dog that's already had the chicken and beef versions of this range.
