    Default Update on Using Acana

    Hi Everyone.
    I've been feeding my dog Wilbur his new feeding schedule for about a week and a half now.
    He's doing great.
    I bought a large bag of Acana Pacifica and also of Acana Grasslands.
    The Acana expiration dates go out 15 months from the date of manufacture.
    The Grasslands has an Expiration date of August 2011, and the Pacifica October 2011. So I'm using the Grasslands first as it is a few months older than the Pacifica.

    I feed Wilbur 2/3 of his food allotment in the morning and 1/3 at night.
    He is doing great with two #2's everyday. (morning and night).

    On Wednesdays and Fridays he gets 1 cup green beans and canned Salmon and 1/2 teaspoon of Flax meal for both his meals..I do this to get him away from processed foods a few times a week..green beans are for fiber..

    3 days a week I give him a Fish oil capsule and a Vitamin D capsule...
    I'm happy with the Acana.
    Thank you all
    Ken and Wilbur
