Analytical Constituents in Wolfworthy Dog FoodUpdated 9 days ago

Have you seen analytical constituents listed on your bag of Wolfworthy or other dog food and wondered what they mean? This guide explains the difference between ingredients and analytical constituents, with examples from our Original, Oily Fish, and Countryside recipes.

What Are Ingredients?

Ingredients (also known as composition) are the components that make up the recipe. They are always listed in descending order by weight, with the main ingredient first.

At Wolfworthy, we believe in transparency. That’s why we list clearly defined ingredients like salmon, sweet potato, or beef, rather than vague terms like “meat and animal derivatives” or “cereals.” If you spot these elsewhere, it’s worth investigating further.

What Are Analytical Constituents?

Analytical constituents are the nutritional breakdown of the food. These figures show the natural nutrient levels in the ingredients and are legally required on pet food labels. They include:

• Crude Protein – Total protein from meat, fish, and other sources
• Crude Oils & Fats – Essential fats for energy, skin, and coat health
• Crude Fibre – Aids digestion and gut health
• Crude Ash – Represents the natural mineral content
• Moisture – The water content in the food
• Omega 3 & 6 – Essential fatty acids to support coat, skin, and cognitive function
• Energy – Measured in kilocalories per 100g of food

These values reflect the natural composition of our high-quality ingredients—no crude ash or added oils are used.

Why Analytical Constituents Matter

When comparing dog foods, protein content is key, but not all protein is created equal. Some lower-quality foods contain poorly digestible sources (like feathers or meat by-products), which offer little nutritional benefit.

At Wolfworthy, we use only high-quality, digestible animal proteins and natural ingredients, with no hidden fillers. Every bite is packed with real nutrition to support your dog’s health.

We’re committed to transparency and proud of what goes into every bag of Wolfworthy:
✔️ No nasties
✔️ No artificial fillers
✔️ Just honest, nutritious food your dog will love
