ACANA Freshwater Fish Dog Food
With ACANA, it’s all about the meat. That’s why your dog won’t be able to get enough of ACANA Freshwater Fish Dog Food, which gets an A+ in meat math based on the three meat questions: how many meats, how much meat, and how much fresh meat? By striving to give the best answers to all these questions, ACANA creates biologically appropriate foods that suit your dog’s every carnivorous need.
ACANA Freshwater Fish does not depend on just one meat source. Three types of fish go into this mix, including rainbow trout fresh from Idaho, blue catfish from local Kentucky waters and white perch from the Great Lakes. All three fish are provided in whole prey ratios, meaning the meat is accompanied by organs and cartilage, or sometimes the whole fish, to complement your dog’s natural feeding habits. You probably won’t see a wolf eating only the meat from its prey – Mother Nature ensures that canines get all the nutrients they need to be healthy by consuming the whole animal. Your dog’s dietary needs can be met perfectly by eating whole prey animals like fish, which is why ACANA Freshwater Fish only includes two added supplements, zinc and copper.
Just as your pet’s ideal diet looks very similar to his wild cousins’ meals, his digestive system remains unaffected by years of evolution. Though domestic dogs look very different from their wolf ancestors, science says that their bodies are suited for a diet rich in protein and fat, both coming from meat. That’s why ACANA Freshwater Fish is stuffed with 60% fish ingredients – up to double the amount common in dog foods – and is absolutely free of any plant protein concentrates that can’t provide dogs with the same quality protein as meat. All that protein means there isn’t much room left for carbs, which is exactly what ACANA is aiming for. With the limited carbohydrates only coming from healthy fruits and vegetables, ACANA Freshwater Fish is completely and deliciously biologically appropriate.
The final meat question that ACANA Freshwater Fish answers: how much fresh fish? ACANA is proud to say that half of this formula is made with fresh or raw fish ingredients that are shipped to their Kentucky kitchens every day. The other half is dried, providing an exceptional source of natural protein. Any way you add it up, the meat math doesn’t lie: ACANA Freshwater Fish Dog Food has everything you could ever want for your fish-loving friend.
