    Most Acana formulas are too high in calcium and don't have the proper cal/phosphorous ratio for a growing Lab.

    You want a food with 1.3 calcium or lower and a ratio of cal/phos of 1.2/1

    The one you chose is :

    Calcium (min.) 1.5 %
    Phosphorus (min.) 1.1 %
    Calcium: Phosphorus Ratio 1.3:1

    This is a better choice for a growing Lab pup.

    Also want to mention the Origen Chicken LBP is the best formula cal wise and ratio wise for growing Lab pups. Switch to adult at 12-14 months of age. I raised a number of litters on it and all are doing great.
