The working sled dogs eat Acana "Red" in the winter. I think it's actually called "Performance Formula". High fat, high protien. In the summer they get the Acana "blue" which has slightly less fat and protien. Keeps the summer weight gain to a minimum.

Ozzy eats Acana Extreme, which as it's name implies, is very high fat, high protien, super calorie dense. I can not keep weight on Ozzy. He gets dangerously skinny very quickly. The Extreme formula is designed for dogs working under extreme conditions, like running the Iditarod in -40C. Ozzy eats it year round, even when he's doing nothing in July!

The senior girls and Earle eat a mixture of Acana Senior and Ripley's Ranch Senior Holistic. My friend sells the Ripley's. I'd feed it straight, but it's too expensive so I mix it with the Acana. The dogs do well on it and I get to support to my friend a bit too.

All the dogs, except Pirate, Earle and Paxil, have their kibble heavily supplemented with wild game, beef, and salmon. Lots of bones are available for chewing at all times. Earle and Paxil have chronic pancreatitis and can't handle any extra fat. Pirate gets the runs from one milkbone. It would be ugly if she got raw meat!
