" Our ground-breaking Freeze Dried dog food combines all the flavour and goodness of raw ingredients with the ease and convenience of dry dog food. Simply store in a cupboard and it's ready to serve whenever it's dinner time.
Complete Dinners Beef are made with quality, deboned beef as the main ingredient which is blended with a special selection of powerfully nutritious fruits, vegetables and botanicals. Formed into bite-sized nuggets, these raw ingredients are then freeze-dried.
Freeze-drying is a safe and extremely gentle food process that preserves all the goodness, flavour and nutrients of the quality meats, fish, fruits and vegetables that make our raw dog food.
The result is an incredibly nutritious meal that's extra tasty, as the process intensifies the meaty flavours dogs love. Plus, with no artificial flavours, colours or preservatives, Nature's Variety Freeze Dried can be enjoyed straight from the pack, with no refrigeration needed.
I have been buying for the last 6 months nature’s variety freeze dried turkey for my little dog.He seems to enjoy it and I have no problems whatsoever.
The only thing I noticed though and I wanted to ask you is the fat content which seems to be high.
Can you please comment on that?
I had a look and proper raw food has a fat content of 6 per cent and the freeze dried food has a fat content of 34 per cent.
Thank you

Suitable for all breeds of dogs
Private label (or white label) pet foods are pre-formulated recipes that companies can order from certain factories, add their own label or packaging and retail to the public as their own brand. They are therefore available from numerous suppliers. Click here for more info.
In general, unless your dog has health issues, you probably won't have to worry about these figures. Click here for more information
This is the ingredients list as printed on the packaging or manufacturer's website.
Think of the 'mixing bowl' composition like a recipe - all the ingredients you would need to put in a 'mixing bowl' in order to make the food.
Ingredients have to be listed in descending order of their weight so the higher it appears, the more there is.
Highlighted ingredients
Ingredients that we believe to be controversial or inferior are highlighted in yellow with particularly low grade, highly contentious or excessively vague ingredients in red.
Information in italics is not usually avaialble on the ingredients list but has been provided to us by the manufacturer to help with our ratings.
As fed composition
While the 'mixing bowl' composition is useful for knowing what went into the food, it doesn't always reflect what your dog is actually eating. This is because the processes that turn the ingredients into the finished pet food can significantly alter the relative weights of the ingredients.
For this reason we've calculated the approximate 'as fed' percentages for the main ingredient categories in the finished product.
Please note that these figures are very approximate. They are estimates based on the information provided by the manufacturer in the ingredients list so the clearer the terminology and the more percentages they provide, the more accurate our estimates will be. Wherever information is lacking, we always assume the worst.
Ingredient categories
◉ Meat ingredients: includes all meat and fish ingredients except isolated fats/oils.
◉Added oils and fats: includes all isolated oil and fat ingredients.
◉ Carb-rich ingredients: includes all ingredients derived from grains, pseudo-grains, potatoes and other starchy root vegetables, sweet potato and legumes (except whole peas which are categorised under fruit and veg) except for isolated protein and extracted oils. Also includes fibre supplements.
◉ Fruit and veg: includes all whole vegetables and fruits.
◉ Other: all other ingredients. Mostly made up by nutritional supplements and additives.
The dry matter level of a nutrient is the percentage there would be in the food if all of the water was removed.
With water taken out of the equation, these figures allow the nutrient levels of foods of different types (like wet and dry) to be compared on an even playing field.
In general, unless your dog has health issues, you probably won't have to worry about these figures. Click here for more information
The price per day of feeding this food based on feeding the manufacturer's recommended daily amount from 840g bags bought at their rrp to a dog of:

Note: All suggested feeding amounts and costs are only approximate and may vary considerably from dog to dog. Be sure to contact the manufacturer if in any doubt.
95 out of 100 - Excellent
Our unique nutritional ratings are calculated based on a number of characteristics including the quality and quantity of the stated ingredients, certain nutritional and technological additives and the processing methods used to create the food. They are designed to indicate how healthy a food is likely to be for the majority of dogs when fed on a daily basis for an extended period. Click here for more information

Some wet pet foods need thickeners and gelling agents to bind the ingredients and stabilise the consistency. Many of these additives do not need to be declared by the manufacturer despite some being fairly controversial.
