The Comparison

Three Foods, One Method

The same five measures, applied to each food from its own figures.

Three Foods, One Method. Each row is one measure; the best figure in a row is marked.
01 Koha Minimal Ingredient Stew Lamb Stew Swap Remove 02 Koha Kangaroo : Limited Ingredient Diet Kangaroo Entrée Grain-Free Swap Remove 03 Weruva Dogs in the Kitchen Classic Dog Funky Chunky Chicken Soup with Pumpkin Grain-Free Swap Remove + Add A Food
01 Protein, Dry Matter Higher Is Better 26-32% dm reads typical mainstream. 01 Minimal Ingredient Stew Lamb Stew 44.4% 02 Kangaroo : Limited Ingredient Diet Kangaroo Entrée Grain-Free 40.9% 03 Dogs in the Kitchen Classic Dog Funky Chunky Chicken Soup with Pumpkin Grain-Free 64.0% Best in this row
02 Carbohydrate Load, Dry Matter Lower Is Better Estimated, 6% ash assumed. Estimated, not measured. It is what is left of the guaranteed analysis once protein, fat, fiber and moisture are taken out, with ash assumed at 6%. That leftover is mostly starch but also carries sugars and the fiber a crude-fiber test misses, so read it as a close estimate rather than an exact figure. Measured as fed, the same basis as the bag. 01 Minimal Ingredient Stew Lamb Stew 17% 0.0% as fed 02 Kangaroo : Limited Ingredient Diet Kangaroo Entrée Grain-Free 21% 0.5% as fed 03 Dogs in the Kitchen Classic Dog Funky Chunky Chicken Soup with Pumpkin Grain-Free 6% 0.0% as fed
03 Named Proteins In The First Five Count of named animal proteins. The count matches any named animal word in the opening five ingredients, so it also counts animal fats and flavourings as proteins. It is shown because it is one of the five measured lines, but it is too rough to call a winner on. 01 Minimal Ingredient Stew Lamb Stew 3 of 5 02 Kangaroo : Limited Ingredient Diet Kangaroo Entrée Grain-Free 1 of 5 03 Dogs in the Kitchen Classic Dog Funky Chunky Chicken Soup with Pumpkin Grain-Free 2 of 5
04 Flagged Additives Level Lower Is Better Matched against the flag list. 01 Minimal Ingredient Stew Lamb Stew None 02 Kangaroo : Limited Ingredient Diet Kangaroo Entrée Grain-Free None 03 Dogs in the Kitchen Classic Dog Funky Chunky Chicken Soup with Pumpkin Grain-Free None
05 Brand Recall History Level Lower Is Better Manufacturer, not recipe. 01 Minimal Ingredient Stew Lamb Stew None 02 Kangaroo : Limited Ingredient Diet Kangaroo Entrée Grain-Free None 03 Dogs in the Kitchen Classic Dog Funky Chunky Chicken Soup with Pumpkin Grain-Free None
Starch, As Fed Estimated, not measured. It is what is left of the guaranteed analysis once protein, fat, fiber and moisture are taken out, with ash assumed at 6%. That leftover is mostly starch but also carries sugars and the fiber a crude-fiber test misses, so read it as a close estimate rather than an exact figure. Measured as fed, the same basis as the bag. 01 Minimal Ingredient Stew Lamb Stew 0.0% 02 Kangaroo : Limited Ingredient Diet Kangaroo Entrée Grain-Free 0.5% 03 Dogs in the Kitchen Classic Dog Funky Chunky Chicken Soup with Pumpkin Grain-Free 0.0%

Add A Food

Every figure here is the food's own. Protein and carbohydrate are converted to dry matter so foods of different moisture can be set beside each other; starch is estimated from the guaranteed analysis with ash assumed at 6.0%, and the recall record belongs to the manufacturer rather than to the recipe. Two rows are printed but never marked: the named-protein count, because the detection behind it is too rough to call a winner on, and calories, because neither more nor fewer is better without knowing the dog.
