Wagg Adult Dog Meaty Goodness Complete Beef Dinner PMP £2.19

A feeding chart printed by breed rather than just by weight is more useful than it looks, because most owners size a scoop against a dog they can picture rather than a number on a bag, and it saves reaching for a set of kitchen scales every meal.

Wagg's Meaty Goodness Beef Dinner is a complete dry food, with beef among 26% meat meal and gravy (minimum 5% beef), alongside whole grain wheat, whole grain barley, vegetable fibre, maize, chicken fat, whole linseed, dried peas and beet, minerals, chicory root and yucca. The analysis is protein 20%, crude fibre 3.5%, fat content 8%, crude ash 8.5%, calcium 2%, omega 6 at 1.6% and omega 3 at 0.3%, at 338 kcal per 100g. It's suitable for all dogs from 8 weeks onwards.

On the beef content. "Beef Dinner" describes the recipe, but the beef itself is a minimum of 5% within the 26% meat meal and gravy — most of that 26% is unnamed meat meal rather than beef specifically. It's a fair way this food is put together, but worth knowing if you're choosing it for beef content above everything else.

Who it's for: owners of any size of dog from 8 weeks old wanting a straightforward complete dry food with a proper feeding chart to work from, rather than a single generic "adult dog" measure.
