ACANA Wholesome Grains Sea to Stream Fish & Grains

In this review we look at ACANA Wholesome Grains Sea to Stream Fish & Grains Recipe dry dog food and why it suits owners seeking a high protein, grain-inclusive formula. The bottom line: this 22.5 lb bag is best for dogs that benefit from fish-forward animal proteins and a fiber-rich grain blend, because it delivers 70 percent animal ingredients balanced with 30 percent wholesome grains, fruits and vegetables while including pre- and probiotics for digestive support.

Key Features

• High protein from wild-caught fish: Wild-caught herring, mackerel and catfish provide rich animal proteins that help support lean muscle and energy in active dogs.
• Balanced ingredient split: The formula is blended as roughly 70 percent quality animal ingredients and 30 percent grains, fruits and vegetables to combine protein density with nutrient diversity.
• Fiber-rich grain blend: Oats, sorghum and millet add digestible fiber to support healthy stool quality and steady energy release.
• Digestive support: Included pre- and probiotics help maintain gut health and make transitions between foods easier for sensitive stomachs.
• Skin and coat benefits: Natural Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids from fish help promote healthy skin and a shiny coat.
• Made in the USA: Formulated and manufactured in the United States using quality ingredients sourced from around the world.

Who It's For

This recipe is a solid choice for owners of small to medium adult dogs and for many life stages (except growth of large breed puppies 70 lb or more as an adult) who want a fish-first protein source and the added fiber of wholesome grains. Dogs that prefer the taste of seafood proteins or need Omega fatty acids for coat and skin will especially benefit.

Owners of very large growing puppies should look elsewhere because the formula is not intended for large size growth. Also, dogs with strict grain-free prescriptions from a veterinarian should avoid this formula due to its oats, sorghum and millet content.
