In my opinion, dog owners should always read the ingredient label on the back of each bag. Furthermore, I always like to take a look at the first 4 ingredients to determine if I am receiving a healthy feed for my dog. Let’s take a look at the first four ingredients in the True Acre Dog Food recipe below.
1.Beef – Dogs love the taste of meat, and beef is no exception. So what does this beef provide our dogs? It is an essential source of protein that our four-legged companions need which provides energy as well as essential amino acids. These nutrients assist in the maintenance of strong muscles and lean muscle mass. Make a healthy meat your #1 ingredient!
2. Peas – This ingredient has become somewhat controversial with pet nutritionists, veterinarians, and the FDA. Peas within a dog food recipe does provide some nutritional benefits such as dietary fiber, vitamins and a source of protein and which helps with digestion. Those who have concern with peas in a dog diet point to the ‘lectins’ found in peas. Lectins are sticky molecules that can cause issues if these sticky molecules begin to attach to the intestinal lining. There are researchers who believe this process can lead to issues involving thyroid, diabetes, arthritis, and cardiovascular disease.
3. Pea Starch – Although pea starch provides a bit of carbohydrates for energy, this ingredient also has its own controversy. (See #2 above)
4. Poultry By-Product Meal – By-products from poultry are those parts of the animal that remain after the meat has been removed. Poultry by-products are considered to be high-quality ingredients that actually provide your pet with nutritional value. Included in these benefits are a quality source of healthy fats, protein and essential vitamins and minerals.

Their dog treats contain BHA BHT, These are known carcinogens.. If they put them in their dog treats it makes me wonder what’s in their dog kibble.. Stay far away from this company

Thanks Eva. Yes, I would also stay away from any treats containing carcinogens. Great example of why we must do a thorough research before purchasing any dog treat or dog food.

You are incorrect. Their preservative is “mixed tocopherols” a class of organic chemical compounds, many of which have vitamin E activity. I am a Vet Tech, a boarding professional and feed my dog their chews. He has Urinary issues and needs Rx food, but their chews are organic, safe and have caused no issues.

My dogs like it but I have noticed that it makes their feces is very very dry.
Luke · July 15, 2020 at 2:22 pm
Hi Leila, so sorry to hear about your dog’s situation. To be honest, this is the first time hearing about this symptom. Do you feel like your dogs are getting enough water intake?

My husky is a picky eater. I mix scrambled eggs and meat in dry food just to get him to eat I bought true acre lamb and vegetables to try and he gobbled it down without adding anything. I like that it is natural and made in USA and Canada.
