Default Which of these 3 should I go with?????

Hi all. I got a Yorkie pup about 2 weeks ago. She came to me eating "Costco" brand dog food. I switched her to EaglePack but she does not seem very into it at all! She is eating VERY little. I am hunting for a new food and have two other choices. I am not great at label reading so I will post the ingredients for Acana, Performatrin Ultra(which is sold only in Canada), and the EaglePack. Could those of you who know anything about ingredients read them over and give me opinions? Thanks!
