I've fed Acana primarily to Jackson for.... 7+ years now? He's 9. I've rotated between other brands here and there for flavor change or try something else. I usually end up back with Acana because he just seems to do best with it. That's not to say there's not plenty of other good foods out there as well. But we rotate between a few flavors. I do also feed canned food mixed in with the dry which can vary- I switch up brands sometimes. He does well though. Great bloodwork, soft shiny hair, good stools, etc. My cockapoo girl, Lola, poops a lot on Acana though so I am in the process of trying something that works better for her. Again every dog is different.


For my two, I've fed on rotation Orijen, Fromm, and Acana. They're only 2.5 and 3, so there hasn't been that many rotations, but they've done well on all three brands. I started with Acana then Orijen with Scottie (who was a fussy eater until Casie came along), switched to Fromm when Casie joined us (because it's smaller pieces and she didn't chew as a puppy), and now they've both transitioned back to Acana because I noticed they started getting bored of Fromm after 1.5 years.

I always soak their kibble with warm water for 5 minutes to help them digest the kibble better.
