The Boréal Health Grains Freshwater Trout dog food is a holistic dry recipe for adult dogs, made in Ontario by Boréal Pet Foods, a Canadian family company for over 30 years. Boneless fresh trout (19 %) + herring meal (17 %) + pork meal (12 %) in the first ingredients. Trout provides more protein than salmon and a better essential amino acid profile (lysine, methionine, arginine, leucine). Low-glycemic ancient grains: pearled barley, rolled oats, and brown rice. Herring oil added (2 %) for marine omega-3s. Taurine and DL-methionine for heart support. 26 % protein, 16 % fat. Available in 2.26 kg and 10 kg sizes.
🐠 Trout + herring + pork, low-glycemic ancient grains
48 % fish and meat (trout + herring meal + pork meal). Barley, oats, brown rice. Trout provides more protein than salmon. Taurine 0.13 %. Canadian family company.
🐠 Trout vs. salmon: why choose trout?
The trout is naturally a more protein-dense fish than salmon. It offers higher levels of essential amino acids like lysine, methionine, arginine, and leucine, important for muscle, organ, and metabolic maintenance. Trout is also a novel protein that is less common than salmon.
🌾 Grains Health vs Grain-Free: what's the difference?
The Boréal Health Grains line includes nutritious ancient grains (barley, oats, brown rice) with a low glycemic index. The Original and Vital Grain-Free lines use only white beans and peas. Choose Health Grains if your dog tolerates grains well and benefits from extra fiber.
🌿 Low glycemic index: why is it important?
Barley, oats, and brown rice have a lower glycemic index than industrial grains (corn, white rice) or potatoes. That means a slower release of glucose, longer-lasting fullness, and more stable energy.

Yes. Trout is more protein-dense and offers a better essential amino acid profile (lysine, methionine, arginine, leucine). It's an excellent choice for active dogs or dogs on protein rotation.
Most dogs tolerate easy-to-digest ancient grains like barley, oats, and brown rice very well. Recipes to avoid are those with wheat, corn, or soy (often problematic). Boréal Health Grains avoids these ingredients.
Health Grains Trout contains low-GI ancient grains and trout (more protein than salmon). Original Salmon is grain-free and uses Atlantic salmon. Both are excellent choices depending on your preference for grains.
This recipe is formulated for adult dog maintenance. For puppies, see Boréal Vital recipes, which cover all life stages.
