Description:

Dogs are ancestral carnivores, so their Biologically Appropriate diet is rich and varied in whole animal

Formulated for adult dogs over 25kgs.

Just like his wild cousins, your large-breed dog is a carnivore, possessing a biological need for a diet rich and varied in fresh, whole meat.

That’s why we loaded ACANA Adult Large Breed with free-run chicken, wild-caught flounder, and cage-free eggs in WholePrey ratios that nourish naturally, without long lists of synthetic additives.

Excess weight can stress bones and joints, so ACANA is free of grains or gluten, providing extra meat protein to promote lean muscle mass while managing body fat. Prepared in our award-winning kitchen from Canada’s best and freshest ingredients, Biologically Appropriate ACANA keeps your big dog healthy, happy, and strong.

Key Benefits:

  • 60% Meat 40% Fruit, Vegetables and Botanicals.
  • 0% Grains, CMO Ingredients or Potato
  • Key ingredients promote peak physical conditioning in dogs of all breeds and life stages.
  • Only 2 supplements - Zinc and Vitamin E (preservative). Unlike conventional dog foods, ACANA’s rich fresh meat and WholePrey inclusions deliver essential nutrients naturally, eliminating the need for long lists of additives and supplements.

Nutritional Analysis:

They might look different, but your dog shares his anatomy with the grey wolf – which means he’s evolved as a carnivore and adapted for a diet rich in meat, protein, and fat.

Based on this biological fact, and to produce a nutritional analysis that mirrors the diet Mother Nature would provide for your dog, ACANA features richly nourishing proteins and fats.

Feeding Guidelines:

ACANA benefits dogs of every variety. Just like you, your dog is unique with feeding requirements that vary with environment, age, and activity. The table below provides a starting point, to be adjusted as needed to maintain optimum weight and peak conditioning. We suggest monitoring your dog’s weight and adjusting rations as needed.

We recommend feeding twice daily and always keeping fresh, clean water available.

    My dog Spencer loved this food. Not one day did he not eat all of it. His attention level, the shininess of his coat, the solidness of his sleep and his energy levels definitely improved after about a week of eating it. While eating this food his general well being seemed to benefit. I would definitely recommend this food and Pet Direct. Pet Direct have always been super friendly to us, postage super quick and advice to try this food was spot on! 100% happy with this product and Pet Direct to get it to us no trouble!
