🌾 Certified Humane chicken + authentic ancient grains + zero legumes
Humanely raised chicken + oats + millet + quinoa + sorghum + chia seeds. 26% protein, 15% fat, with taurine boosted to 0.2%. No peas, no lentils, no potatoes: the alternative for dogs that tolerate grains.
🌾 Why ancient grains instead of wheat or corn?
Oats, millet, quinoa, and sorghum are authentic ancient grains, grown for thousands of years. Unlike modern wheat and corn, they are minimally processed, gluten-free or low in gluten, and offer a much richer nutritional profile: soluble fiber, complementary plant proteins, B vitamins, manganese, magnesium, and natural antioxidants. They are also better tolerated by most dogs.
🐔 Certified Humane®: humanely raised chicken
The chicken in this recipe carries the Certified Humane® certification, one of the most demanding humane farming programs in North America: adequate space to move, access to the outdoors, feed with no routine antibiotics, humane slaughter.
🔍 Radical traceability: the Open Farm signature
Open Farm is one of the only brands in the world to offer full traceability: a lot code printed on the bag gives access to the list of farms that supplied each ingredient. Radical transparency that goes beyond standard certifications.

The Grain-Free Turkey and Chicken recipe uses no grains: the carbohydrates come from chickpeas, lentils, field peas, and potatoes. The current recipe (Chicken with ancient grains) takes the opposite approach: it uses ancient grains (oats, millet, quinoa, sorghum) and completely excludes legumes and potatoes. Choose based on your dog's preferences and your values: grain-free or with ancient grains.
Most dogs tolerate ancient grains like oats, millet, quinoa, and sorghum very well. True grain allergies are rare (about 1 to 2% of dogs). The most common sensitivities involve wheat, corn, and soy, which are not present in this recipe.
Open Farm chose to add taurine in a generous amount (0.2%) across its ancient-grain dog range, as added support for heart function. Taurine is an amino acid dogs can normally synthesize, but direct intake is an added benefit for maintaining good heart health.
This recipe is formulated for adult dogs. For puppies, Open Farm offers a specific ancient-grain puppy formula (also available from us), with calcium, phosphorus, and DHA levels adjusted for growth.
Each bag has a lot code that identifies the farms and suppliers that contributed to that specific batch (chicken, fish, grains, vegetables). It's a unique level of transparency in the industry: Open Farm publishes the full list of its suppliers.
Open Farm Chicken with ancient grains is our choice for families who want a balanced alternative to 100% grain-free recipes, without falling back on conventional grains (wheat, corn, soy). The combination humane chicken + authentic ancient grains + boosted taurine makes it a balanced, nourishing, and functional option. Traceable, sustainable, Canadian brand.
