ACANASingles Duck and Pear Recipe, 4.5lbs, Limited Ingredient Diet Dry Dog Food

Have a 14 year old very overly spoit Pug at home - not by me - that has been hand fed chicken for the last six months as he has refused to eat. I only have fed my dogs very high quality kibble over the years and duck based kibble has always been my go to food especially for my working/ranching dogs and my companion labbies have loved duck kibble as well. So I thought why not give this a try after much research into dog food as there have been so many shocking scandals over the years plus the um meat coming from er tankage issue. No animal of mine would ever be fed such vile stuff. So after the research Acana and a few other brands came up winners and Acana had duck so I gave it a whirl and purchased a small bag. Mr. Excessively Spoilt loves it and can't get enough, proving my almost five decade rule that dogs will always eat duck and the back side noises and scents immediately stopped. I know it's a bit pricey, however, chicken is not inexpensive and the ingredients of cheap dog food or even medium grade food which I will not say or tell...will make you throw up your toenails. This is absolutely worth every penny.

I have to go by what my sweet little dog tells me about her food!My sister was visiting with her dog for a few days and they brought Acana food with them. It was the lamb and apple variety. My little girl , who is very particular about her food, ran right over and began to eat this food when my sister put it down for her dog. I decided to try a bag for my girl and she eats it right up. Ingredients appear to be very good.

Good and quck

My dog has severe multiple allergies. This is the ONLY dog food she can eat. All the others out there have ingredients that she is allergic to. One of her allergies is flaxseed and it seems like all the dog food companies are adding that to the food. ACANA doesn't have it and I hope they never change the recipe.

We tried different brands and so far this one is the only one that my dog keeps eating for over a year now. She would get tired of other brands and not eat them after a few weeks. Also, she is allergic to chicken so these are perfect for her diet. Recommended.

Fixed skin allergies for our dog losing her hair. Needs less food for the same amount of protein. She goes crazy for the food when we fill her bowl and wolfs it down. Other foods she will only eat a small bite of or not even have interest.

I like this high quality brand of food for my very picky maltese. The pieces are small enough for her, but I think a bigger dog would like it too. She has tried many of the Acana flavors and this happens to be her favorite. She has even put on a little weight since she switched to this food.

I bought a small bag of this locally in Portland Or at a small independent pet food store to see if my pug would eat it as she has tended to be very finicky about food, and she loved, absolutely devoured it, attacked the bag, couldn't get enough of it etc....so I thought this is it, I finally found the replacement for the uber expensive raw food Ive been buying for months that my dog has only ever been luke warm about in terms of enthusiasm. So big bag arrives and I open it, pour some for pup, who then walks over, sniffs and walks away. I can leave a small bowl of this out for days before my dog will touch it, it looks the same and smells the same from what I can recall of the small bag- she just wont eat. Three stars for being high quality food, nicely packaged from a reputable company, I cant go higher than that though because my dog just doesn't seem to like whatever came in this bag.
