Acana Dog Food Compared: 30 Recipes by Label

Acana's product pages in our library publish recipe name, brand, food type, life stage, protein percentage, fat percentage, a calorie density figure, a link back to the manufacturer product page for each recipe. An AAFCO nutritional adequacy statement is published for every one of the 30 recipes in this set. 30 of 30 recipes carry a manufacturer origin address, and 2 different addresses appear across the set, the first on file being: Acana (Champion Petfoods USA Inc.). A per-recipe ingredient-sourcing claim from the manufacturer is on file for 4 of the 30 recipes; the remaining 26 carry no such claim on the page we recorded. A source link to the original manufacturer page is on file for 30 of the 30 recipes, which is where each figure below was read. The pages behind these 30 recipes were recorded between Jul 8, 2026 to Sep 18, 2026.

Across all 30 recipes, published protein runs 8% to 36% across 30 recipes with a figure published. Published fat runs 5% to 20% across 30 recipes with a figure published. Where a calorie density figure is published, it runs 1,118 kcal/kg to 3,575 kcal/kg across 26 recipes with a figure published. Within Dry Kibble (28 recipes), published protein runs 25% to 36% across 28 recipes with a figure published and published fat runs 10% to 20% across 28 recipes with a figure published. Within Wet/Canned (2 recipes), published protein runs 8% across all 2 recipes with a figure published and published fat runs 5% across all 2 recipes with a figure published. These are the ranges of the numbers printed on each product page, not an average, a rating, or a recommendation, and they are pulled straight from the label data we recorded for Acana. By life stage, the 30 recipes break down as: 10 Adult, 16 All Life Stages, 4 Puppy.

The published ingredient lists we recorded for Acana run 8 to 58 ingredients long across 30 recipes. 4 of those lists were cut short on the manufacturer page and recorded as truncated, so the true count on those recipes may run longer than what is shown. The recipe count, food type, and life stage for each entry below come from the same product page as the protein, fat, and calorie figures above, so the numbers in the list match what is printed on each label as of the date we recorded it.

To compare two Acana recipes side by side, open the recipe pages above in separate tabs and match up the protein, fat, and calorie figures each publishes, or use our comparison tool, which pulls the same published figures into one table so the numbers line up automatically. You can open all 30 Acana recipes in the comparison tool. The full brand index is at Dog Food Library by Brand, and the page explaining how we source and record these figures is at How We Compare Dog Foods.
