James Wellbeloved Adult Small Breed Chicken and Rice Dry Dog Food 1.5kg

James Wellbeloved Adult Small Breed Chicken & Rice – 1.5kg

Small breeds burn energy faster per kilo than big dogs and have smaller mouths to get it into, which is why James Wellbeloved make this as a separate recipe rather than just bagging the standard chicken food in a smaller size. The kibble is scaled down, and the food is denser: 371 kcal per 100g, the highest of the small breed recipes we stock.

Dried chicken protein leads at 26.5%, followed by naked oats and equal shares of brown and white rice at 13% each, with barley behind them. The hypoallergenic formulation leaves out beef, pork, soya, eggs, dairy and wheat, which is the point of the whole James Wellbeloved line.

Performance & Benefits

• Dried chicken protein at 26.5% as the named animal protein.
• Small kibble, sized for small mouths.
• Protein 25.6% and 371 kcal/100g, energy-dense for a small dog's faster metabolism.
• Omega-6 at 3.4% and omega-3 at 1.1% for skin and coat condition.
• Vitamins A, D3 and E with copper, iodine, iron, selenium, zinc and manganese.
• Hypoallergenic formulation excluding beef, pork, soya, eggs, dairy and wheat.

Suitable For

• Adult small breed dogs.
• Dogs that do better on poultry than on red meat.
• Small dogs that leave standard-sized kibble.
• Not a grain-free diet — a dog reacting to cereals needs the James Wellbeloved Fish & Veg Grain-Free recipe instead.

Feeding

• A complete dry food; nothing else needs adding to it.
• Keep fresh drinking water down at all times.
• Transition from the previous food over roughly a week.
• Split the daily amount across two meals for a small dog rather than feeding it in one go.
• James Wellbeloved print the daily amount by bodyweight on the bag and publish it in their own feeding guide; the figures are not given on their product page, so no gram amounts are stated here.
