Acana Singles Grass-Fed Lamb
Acana Singles Grass-Fed Lamb is a grain-free adult maintenance formula built around a single, grass‑fed red meat source to minimize ingredient complexity and reduce allergy risk. It holds its spot for offering a high proportion of fresh, regionally sourced lamb at a stronger price-to-meat-quality ratio than ultra‑premium rivals like Orijen, while being more narrowly focused than multi‑protein blends such as Go! Solutions or FirstMate.
