Taking grain out of a recipe does not make the rest of the ingredient list interchangeable, so named percentages matter more than the front-of-bag category.

Skinner’s Field & Trial Grain Free Chicken and Sweet Potato is complete dry food for adult dogs in a 2.5KG bag. Poultry meat meal is 30% and declared as at least 95% chicken; sweet potato chips are 25%. Potato flake, poultry fat, peas, whole linseed, beet pulp, brewer’s yeast, vitamins and minerals follow, alongside declared herbs, MOS, FOS, glucosamine, chondroitin sulphate, seaweed and yucca. Analysis is 25% protein, 13% fat, 8% crude ash, 3.5% crude fibre, 1.58% omega-3 and 355 kcal/100g.

What grain-free tells you: it describes the absence of grain, not the absence of every possible sensitivity. This formula still contains poultry ingredients, peas, linseed and brewer’s yeast. Under 10kg: up to 150g daily; 10–20kg: 150–260g; 20–32kg: 260–400g; 32–45kg: 400–500g; 45kg and over: 450g or more. Feed dry or add a little water, keep fresh water available, and account for breed, size and activity level.

Who it's for: owners of adult dogs seeking a grain-free dry recipe built around chicken and sweet potato, who want declared ingredient percentages rather than relying on the recipe name.
