Acana has never been the subject of an FDA-mandated or company-initiated recall in the U.S. or Canada. In 2011, the FDA placed a temporary Import Alert on Acana Grasslands Dog after one sample appeared to test positive for Salmonella; every subsequent third-party retest came back negative and no recall occurred. Acana shares its manufacturer and beef tallow supply chain with sibling brand Orijen, which had a 2018 pentobarbital-contaminated ingredient incident.
