*How we calculated this:
Dog food is sold by weight, but feeding guidelines are measured in cups. A standard measuring cup of our kibble weighs approximately 4 oz rather than the 8 oz you might expect. Our 18 lb bag (288 oz by weight) contains about 72 cups of kibble. Our 8 lb bag (128 oz by weight) contains about 32 cups. Divide the total cups in your chosen bag by your dog's recommended daily feeding amount to find out how many days each bag will last.

Why does Big Canyon include grains?
Big Canyon includes grains because grains are a highly beneficial component of a dog’s diet. Grains provide important fiber, energy producing carbohydrates, and nutrients that support digestion, a healthy gut and sustained energy. While grain-free diets become a trend a few years back, a number of dogs on those diets were becoming sick, many with DCM. After numerous scientific studies were conducted by dog nutrition experts, the results showed that excluding grains can lead to nutritional deficiencies, such as a lack of fiber and essential vitamins and minerals, potentially impacting the heart, digestive health, energy levels, and overall vitality.
