How We Score
Every dog food in our database is scored 0-100 across eight categories: protein, fat, carbohydrates, fiber, protein source quality, preservatives, additives, and functional ingredients. We use dry matter basis (DMB) calculations to normalize nutrition across foods with different moisture levels. Rankings are based entirely on nutritional data and ingredient analysis — no brand pays for placement. Discover all 152 products in our database.
