An Abundant Variety Of Fresh Meat

ACANA FEATURES A MINIMUM OF THREE* FRESH MEATS, POULTRY, OR FISH

Consider the variation in the natural diet: eggs today, a duck or goose tomorrow, fish the next. A rich variety of fresh meat is a key principal in our award-winning Biologically Appropriate philosophy.

This variety is lost in conventional dog and cat foods, which typically feature a single animal ingredient, such as chicken or lamb, that’s seldom authentically fresh.

ACANA is different, providing a minimum of three fresh meats, from ranch-raised red meat, free-run poultry, and wild-caught fish, supplying your dog or cat with a richly nourishing diversity of protein and fat to promote peak health.

  • 4. WHOLEPREY MEAT RATIOS

    Nature matched the nutrients found in whole prey animals to perfectly meet the dietary needs of dogs and cats. ACANA’s ratios of meat, organs, and cartilage or bone mirror the natural diet, eliminating the need for long lists of synthetic ingredients.
