Trump’s tariff trade wars are all over the news, and you’re determined to shop Canadian. Well, you’ll be happy to hear that your furry family members can do their part. We’ve put together a comprehensive list of Canadian pet food brands that make it easier to make the switch.
To be considered for this list, pet foods must not only be made in Canada, but also be Canadian owned. That means brands such as Acana and Royal Canin didn’t make our list — that’s because even though this food is made in Canada, the brands are owned by a US parent company (in this case, Mars).
You can buy any of these pet foods directly from the manufacturers’ websites, but if you prefer brick and mortar stores, you can try shopping at Pet Valu. This pet store giant is Canadian-owned and operated. As well, most of the local boutique pet stores in your neighbourhood are also Canadian-owned and operated.
