Product Review: Canagan Follow Up

Rio and Dylan have been eating Canagan for the month as part of a product review I agreed to do.

The 12kg bag lasted for nearly 4 weeks feeding two 20kg active dogs.

Both dogs loved the food, it definitely passed the palatability test. They were fed it twice a day at mealtimes, and I also use kibble rewards when training as well.

There was no change to Rio or Dylan’s coat quality or general health (either positive or negative). I can’t say I noticed any change to their activity levels either, although they have been back on their original food for 3 days now and do seem much more active on walks than they have been recently. I also struggled to keep Rio’s weight down on this food. She isn’t overweight but I could stand to see her lose a kg or so, and even with reduced potions she hasn’t dropped the weight. However, I can’t necessarily say this is due to Canagan, because Rio does love her food!

Overall, I do think this is a better option than most commerically available kibbles. The composition of ingredients is better than most and it does have a relatively high meat content. The ingredients are sourced more ethically and there are some good supplements included. However, I sort of expected a more positive impact from such an expensive product, especially after I’d heard so much about the importance of grain-free kibble. I’d have to conclude that there are equally good options on the market if you do your research, and most of them are probably cheaper than Canagan.
