I'm interested to hear other's experiences too, as keeping food in the original bag is not really convenient. Let's see, but you might get more reponses re-posting this in the Quetico forum as it gets more traffic.
The one time I crossed the boarder with dog and dog food they did not make a big deal of it. I was clearly packed for a canoe trip and was heading up to Thunder Bay to pick up a new canoe with plans to cross back into the US that day for a BWCA trip (but I had all my gear/food with me). They did look at my dog's rabies vaccination certificate, then just asked me if I planned to leave anything behind in Canada or give anything away. I assured them everything was for personal consumption and everything was coming back with me. No specific questions about dog food.
I have been planning to head up to WCPP the last couple years, and was planning on repackaging all my dog food for the trip - I keep mine in bulk in a double plastic bag inside an Ursack - plus also planned to bring a small bag of original just so they could see it if they wanted and to use night before and after trip if needed (though I won't leave it in the car).
I did check and my brand of dog food is sold in Canada, so that may help though I have no plans to buy it there.
