Working and sporting dogs burn through a different kind of energy to a dog that does a couple of park walks a day, which is the case for a food built around their activity level rather than a generic adult recipe.

This is a complete, grain-free dry food formulated for dogs working at a moderate activity intensity, built around salmon meat meal at 26.5% and sweet potato chips at 26%, with potato flake, vegetable oil, peas, whole linseed, brewer's yeast and beet pulp. Skinner's add glucosamine at 350mg/kg and chondroitin sulphate at 150mg/kg to support joints, alongside a herb blend, MOS and FOS. It carries crude protein at 25%, crude fat at 13%, crude ash at 9% and omega-3 at 1.41%.

On the activity level. Skinner's pitch this specifically at dogs working at a moderate activity intensity - gundogs, agility dogs and similar - so it's a higher energy food than a sedentary pet dog is likely to need; check your dog's actual activity level before feeding it as an everyday food for a dog that mostly rests.

Who it's for: owners of working or sporting dogs with a grain sensitivity or preference, who want a joint-support recipe matched to genuine activity levels.
