Choosing a good canned dog food can be overwhelming. A few traits that we look for in a high quality canned food for your canine are: the highest possible inclusion of top-quality animal proteins. Whole, named source of meat as the first ingredient (meaning the product contains more of that ingredient by weight than anything else). There are some good foods that list water or broth as the first ingredient and a meat ingredient second – but we’d choose a product with meat first on the label over one that listed meat second. Here are a few of the canned dog foods we carry.
