ACANA - Dog and cat food from Canada

ACANA - Biologically appropriate dog and cat food

The nutritional requirements of modern dogs and cats are the same as those of their ancestors!

ACANA food therefore follows the 5 rules of nature:

1. Rich in meat and protein
ACANA is made with up to 75% animal ingredients. Just like their Game ancestors, modern dogs and cats are equipped with sharp teeth, a short digestive tract and a body that has evolved to metabolize protein and fat from meat. With meat content of up to 75%, ACANA feeds your cat or dog according to its evolutionary needs.

2. High fresh meat content
Up to half of the meat ingredients are directly processed raw - because less processing is better and delivers a taste your pet will love.

3. A rich selection of fresh meat
ACANA always contains at least three types of fresh meat, meat from local farmers, free-range poultry and Game-caught fish. This provides your dog or cat with a nutritious variety of proteins and fats that promote optimal health.

4. Meat from whole prey
ACANA contains meat, organs and cartilage or bones in the proportions that would be found in prey. In nature, the nutrients in whole prey are balanced to perfectly meet the nutritional needs of dogs and cats: muscle meat provides protein, liver, kidneys and tripe provide vitamins and minerals, and cartilage and bones provide calcium and phosphorus.
Acana foods reflect natural nutrition by containing meat, organs and cartilage or bone in a ratio that provides nutrients naturally and completely, without the need for long lists of synthetic ingredients.

5. limited carbohydrate content
While dogs and cats do not have a nutritional requirement for carbohydrates, conventional dog and cat foods often exceed 50% carbohydrates. Acana has a limited carbohydrate content and is free from grains, gluten, potatoes and tapioca. It contains farm fresh vegetables and fruits, such as whole pumpkin and butternut squash, which provide fiber and other nutrients your dog or cat needs to thrive.
