Hmmmm the protein level in comparison to energy level has me intrigued. Snickers has always been on a grain free, "higher protein" diet and his energy has never altered. As he gets older, I do notice he is relaxing more and not as crazy as he was as a pup. He's laying around like a lump today but we went to the doggy mall yesterday and was out all day to his grandparents too

.
Snick initially was on Evo and then decided he didn't like it anymore and then we switched to Acana and he has been golden ever since. He LOVES his Acana. I hope I never have to change again! (HIGHLY UNLIKELY

)
I don't mind the protein level of Acana at all. Snick gets Primal Raw in the morning and that has 15% Crude Protein so the 32% in Acana seems just right.
