Good to know

Federal pet food labeling rules still apply. The Division of Agriculture says: “Federal "Truth in Labeling" laws apply in Alaska, as in all states.”Source: dnr.alaska.gov
Alaska's Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act defines “food” as “an article used for food or drink for man or animal”. Under it, packaged food is misbranded unless its label shows the name and place of business of the manufacturer, packer or distributor and an accurate net quantity; adulterated food (for example, unfit, filthy or made under insanitary conditions) is also unlawful.Source: akleg.gov · AS 17.20.370(10), 17.20.040(a)(5) and 17.20.020.
The Department of Environmental Conservation can stop the sale of unsafe animal feed. 18 AAC 36.290: “(a) The department may stop the sale or feeding of animal feed that is determined to be a threat to animal or public health. (b) The department may confiscate samples of that feed as needed for laboratory testing and analysis, without reimbursement to the owner.”Source: akleg.gov · 18 AAC 36.290 (Animal feed recalls); 18 AAC 36.990(11) defines “department” as “the Department of Environmental Conservation”.
Hemp/CBD pet products: any processed industrial hemp product intended for animal consumption must be endorsed by the Division of Agriculture before it is offered to a consumer in Alaska, and the seller needs a hemp retailer registration. Products with any delta-9-THC, delta-8 or other modified or synthetic cannabinoids can't be sold.Source: plants.alaska.gov · 11 AAC 40.400 and 11 AAC 40.500. The Division's advisory notice says it “also applies to pet products”.
The law allows the state to start registering feed: AS 03.05.010(a)(5) lets the commissioner of natural resources regulate the sale of “animal feeds, remedies and mineral supplements” and “require registration, inspection, and testing and ... establish procedures and fees”. No rule does this today.Source: akleg.gov · Checked against 11 AAC 32 to 11 AAC 40 on akleg.gov.
