Royal Canin Medium Adult Dry Dog Food vs Open Farm Grass-Fed Beef & Ancient Grains Kibble

Buy Royal Canin Medium Adult if you want a diet built around a specific size band: it is portioned and fortified for dogs 23–55 lbs and 1–7 years old, with prebiotics and EPA/DHA aimed at medium-breed energy and skin. Buy the Open Farm Grass-Fed Beef & Ancient Grains kibble if ingredient sourcing matters more than breed targeting: it publishes a full nutrient panel, gets 90% of protein from animal sources, and is GAP Step 4 certified with no peas, potatoes or legumes. Royal Canin leans on breed-specific formulation and a long feeding history; Open Farm leans on transparency and ingredient quality. Owners of both report good palatability, and neither is a veterinary diet.

• Choose the Royal Canin Medium Adult if your dog is a medium breed between 1 and 7 years old and you want a diet sized and fortified for that band rather than a general all-breed formula.
• Choose the Open Farm Grass-Fed Beef & Ancient Grains if you want a published nutrient panel, grass-fed beef as the lead protein, and a grain-inclusive recipe free of peas, potatoes and legumes.
