Fromm

Adult Gold

Family-owned Wisconsin manufacturer with grain-inclusive recipe and named protein sources. Moderate dry-matter protein with strong ingredient clarity. Watch for fish and poultry sensitivity overlap.

Acana

Free-Run Poultry Recipe

Strong named animal lineup with high dry-matter protein and a clear ingredient panel. Common-trigger ingredient stack is significant - not for dogs avoiding poultry, egg, fish, or pulses.
