THE LINES

Eagle Pack Lines, Reviewed

2 lines

Eagle Pack is organized into two kibble lines with two recipes each, and every recipe includes grain. Large & Giant Breed is made for big dogs and pairs a chicken meal adult recipe with a lamb meal puppy recipe. Original puts a named meat meal first, followed by brown rice, barley and oatmeal, and covers adult and all life stages.

On the label the lines sit close together. Large & Giant Breed averages 24% protein, 43.5% estimated starch and 335 kcal per cup as fed, while Original averages 24.5% protein, 42.5% starch and 344 kcal. Both run below the kibble averages for protein and calories and above them for starch. Both use chicken, lamb, fish and pork, and Large & Giant Breed also lists egg. Large & Giant Breed skips peas and lentils, which some owners look for.

Who Makes It

Eagle Pack is a dry dog and cat food brand owned by Wellness Pet Company, which also owns Wellness, WHIMZEES, Old Mother Hubbard, Holistic Select and Sojos. The brand says its formulas contain no corn, wheat, meat by-products, or artificial colors, flavors or preservatives, and that it is sold only through independent pet stores and regional chains. 1, 2

Where It Is Made

Eagle Pack says its food is made in the USA. The brand's dry foods were historically produced at the company's own plant in Mishawaka, Indiana, but Wellness Pet Company sold that plant to United Petfood in June 2024 and said it was moving production to a larger facility it bought in Decatur, Arkansas in 2022. 3, 4, 5

History

Eagle Pack traces its roots to Hy-Ration dog food, made in Indiana starting in 1970, and the brand says it has developed its formulas with trainers and veterinarians since 1985. Eagle Pack was sold to Berwind Corporation in 2007 and merged with Old Mother Hubbard to form WellPet LLC in 2008 and 2009. Clearlake Capital acquired WellPet in 2020, and the company was renamed Wellness Pet Company in 2022. 6, 1
