Brand guide · PetScored desk
Every Royal Canin Veterinary Diet recipe we have scored, ranked by composite on the public rubric. 5 recipes, from 7.2 at the top down to 5.9. We rank what the label and the public record prove, not the front of the bag.
0 of the 5 land in our Strong or Good bands; the rest sit in Mixed or Limited. A high score here is not a brand endorsement, and a low one is not a warning - each recipe stands on its own scorecard.
This is a within-brand ranking. If you are open to switching brands, the cross-brand best-for lists rank every recipe we score by a single attribute like sensitivity, value, or life stage.
