Acana
Acana's Biologically Appropriate™ nutritional philosophy represents a new standard of pet food designed to nourish dogs and cats according to their evolutionary adaptation to meat and protein-rich diets.
Their ingredients are different too, they focus on local ingredients that are sustainably raised and delivered to their kitchens fresh, so they’re never frozen, always preservative free and always bursting with goodness that nourishes completely, rather than relying on highly-processed commodity ingredients.
Made exclusively in Alberta, Canada, ACANA is guaranteed to keep your dog or cat happy, healthy and strong
Artimis
Artemis created a food that balances all the necessary proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals, resulting in a food that is greater than the sum of its parts. A holistic approach also encompasses disease prevention and finding ways to support the natural healing process. Their products were developed with the idea that prevention is the best cure and they have gone the extra mile by incorporating fresh vegetables, fruits, herbs and digestive enzymes to truly meet all the nutritional requirements. A holistic perspective not only benefits customers, it benefits Artemis as a company and gives us a foundation they can be proud of.
Established in 1998 and based in North Hollywood, California, Artemis gained a national reputation for excellence. Why holistic? Because everything works better when it's in balance.
Back to Basics
Back to Basics starts with real organ meat as the number one ingredient. In the wild, dogs naturally go for organ meats because they’re nutrient-dense and they taste great. We then round out their high-protein diet with green carbohydrates, like field peas. This allows them to keep our formulas free from grain, gluten and potatoes, providing a food that more closely mirrors a diet that your dog would naturally eat in the wild.
At Back to Basics, they extend their focus on quality to everything they do. That's why every bag is carefully crafted in small batches in their very own small town of Meadville, Pennsylvania by a family that has been solely focused on making the best food and treats for over five generations.

On top of this, there are many random and periodic inspections performed by outside agencies, that insure, you the consumer, that their products are exactly what they are suppose to be, high quality, nutritious, and safe.
