| Acana kibble size I've recently begun feed Acana and love everything about it except the large kibble size. I e-mailed Champion Pet Foods to ask about the possibility of a line of small bite foods. I thought I would share their reply here. It was a little disappointing, but there's still hope! Hello Bonny, Thank you for your email. We have been asked by many consumers (with dogs both large and small) asking us to consider making ACANA kibble in two different sizes. At this time we have no immediate plans to change the size of the kibble but it might be something that we will consider in the future. Thank you again for your email and please contact us with any further questions or concerns that you may have. Kind regards, Diana Customer Care Champion Petfoods LP Phone: 780.939.6888 Fax: 780.939.6858

| Hey Bonnie...I wrote them about the same thing, and got the same response...That was before I got it...However, both of mine do fine w/the kibble...I do know that Vivian (viviansnickers) cracks snickers' acana w/a nut cracker lol...I guess I would do that, if they didn't eat it, but thank goodness they do...In fact, they love it!!! I'm still feeding raw in the a.m. and Acana Grasslands, in the evening...Apple & Buzz didn't like the Prairie, but they love the grasslands...Next time I'm going to try the Pacifica...Why not give it a whirl? |

Mine have loved both the Pacifica and the Grasslands. I think I'm going to rotate between them each time I buy a new bag. As you know, I can't feed the Prairie or I'd rotate between all 3. I just love this food!

| Ryan, I'm at work right now but I'll try later. I thought there was an older thread with a picture of the Acana kibble but I can't find it. It's between the size of a dima and a nickel.

| We wanted to try Acana, but we were told by a few stores here in Ohio that they are not allowed to have Acana shipped here because of something with their packaging. I'm not sure what the deal is, but they said Ohio is one of few states who has certain regulations on packaging. Has anyone heard of this? We went with Fromm and so far so good!

| I have to cut up the Acana w/scissors lol. It's much thicker & densely packed than NB kibble, so they were having a hard time breaking it up. Princess got tummy aches bc she was swallowing it whole. That nut cracker thing sounds easier...kekee.

| Here's Acana on a nickel and a quarter Yes... I have nothing else better to do for now! Perfect size for Jackson. I always thought the NV Instinct and Fromm may have been too small for him, but he did well on both.
