Rank #4 in Best Grain Free Dog Food 2026: 10 Ranked by Cost per Kilo
Crave Turkey & Chicken Grain Free Dry Adult Dog Food 7kg
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Crave Turkey & Chicken 7 kg bag is a high-protein, grain-free dry dog food made by Mars, and it finished fourth in this guide. At £40.00 for 7 kg it works out at £5.71 per kg — around three times the £1.99 per kg of the 15 kg Alpha bag at the cheap end of the table, and well below the £8.67 per kg of the 1.5 kg James Wellbeloved bag at the other end. Its 4.8 rating from 327 ratings sits inside the guide's 4.3-to-4.8 band, where, as we argue at the top of the article, the stars separate almost nothing.
What does separate this listing from itself is the specification panel. The name and flavour say Turkey & Chicken, but one bullet says the food is "made with 100% Natural Chicken". The item form is Pellet and the item type is Dry Dog Food, yet "Animal Food Diet Type" reads Raw. The name says "Premium Adult Dry Dog Food" while "Age Range Description" says All Life Stages, and "Dog Breed Size" says Medium while "Breed Recommendation" says All Breed Sizes. "Country Of Origin" says Germany, while the manufacturer contact given is a Freepost Mars Petcare UK address in Britain and Mars Ireland in Dublin. The rating breakdown shown adds up to 100 ratings, not the 327 in the headline. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing as it was supplied to us — we have not tested this food, and none of the figures here are ours.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“Great value kibbleDog loves it so that's probably the best recommendation”
Verified purchase“I got an American Akita female,of 50kg and 5yo. I walk her off leash all the time. I feed her only Crave, cuz of those 36% proteins. She's running ,fighting, sniffing with energy all the time. Crave keeps her in shape. She don't fart from it, and her fecals are normal. Not stinky like from the cheap food with 18-22% proteins. One bag per month is how much she eats. She also eat my leftovers, but main food are this from Crave. I need to mention that I've ordered the Bone marrow sortiment, from Crave also, and she didn't liked. This sortiment of Turkey and chicken is her fav. Too bad I'm going back in Romania ,and I will be forced to buy only cheap food, cuz there's no Crave in Romania. Too bad Crave! You would take the market ,if u would be selling it less than what we already have at above 30% protein.”

Where is Crave Turkey & Chicken made?
The listing's "Country Of Origin" field says Germany, while the manufacturer contact given is Freepost Mars Petcare UK in Britain and Mars Ireland in Dublin. The listing does not resolve the two.
What age of dog is Crave Turkey & Chicken for?
The name says "Premium Adult Dry Dog Food" and the Benefits field says "Complete food for adult dogs", but the Age Range Description field says "All Life Stages". The listing gives both.

What protein level does Crave Turkey & Chicken have?
The listing makes a "High Protein" claim and refers to high-quality animal protein, but it does not state a protein percentage. One reviewer mentions feeding it for its 36% protein — that figure comes from the review, not from the listing.
