🐕 Suitable size + 31% protein + no added grain
Mini kibble for small jaws, high-protein profile for the fast metabolisms of small breeds. Legume base, with no wheat, corn, or soy.
⚡ Why 31% protein for a small dog?
Small breeds have a proportionally faster metabolism than a large dog: they burn more energy per pound. A recipe rich in quality protein provides the fuel they need in a smaller serving, which avoids filling their small stomach with low-nutrient carbohydrates.
Fresh chicken (14%) as the first ingredient + chicken meal (14%) to concentrate the protein content. A balanced combination of palatability and concentration.
Turkey meal (6.5%), fresh chicken organs (4%), fresh eggs (4%), raw hake (4%), herring meal (3%), raw turkey liver (0.5%). A protein diversity typical of Champion Petfoods.
Fish oil (4%) and herring meal (3%): DHA and EPA for skin, coat, and heart.
Red lentils, peas, chickpeas, green lentils, yellow peas. Plant-based carbohydrate base, with no added grain.

The kibble size and the slightly more concentrated protein profile (31% protein). This formula is specifically suited to small jaws and the fast metabolism of small breeds.
Yes, the kibble is small enough. For very small dogs (under 2 kg), you can slightly moisten the kibble with warm water to make chewing easier at first.
Orijen Small Breed goes further (39% protein, 85% animal ingredients, New Zealand green-lipped mussels for joints). Acana Small Breed offers an excellent recipe at a more accessible price. The choice depends on your budget and your dog's situation: we can help you decide.
For a small dog that is rather sedentary or prone to weight gain, you can look at Acana Senior (reduced calories) or adjust portions downward.
It's an excellent option for small dogs whose owners want premium Canadian food with no added grain. Our team can help you choose between Acana and Orijen for your small dog.
