DESIGNED FOR CARNIVORES

Your dog is a carnivore and shares his anatomy with the gray wolf, which means his body, teeth, jaws, and short digestive tract are adapted for a diet rich in animal 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 Kentucky Farmlands + Wholesome Grains is rich in nourishing animal protein and oils, while excluding rice, potato, tapioca, and long lists of synthetic ingredients found in some dog foods.

YOUR DOG IS SPECIAL

Just like you, your dog is a unique individual and his feeding requirements will 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 amounts as needed. We recommend feeding twice daily and always keeping fresh, clean water available.

† Use a standard 8-ounce measuring cup. Serve dry or lightly moistened. See your veterinarian regularly. To help maintain freshness, we recommend sealing the bag tightly and storing it in a cool, dry location.

ACANA Kentucky Farmlands + Wholesome Grains is formulated to meet the nutritional levels established by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for All Life Stages, except for growth of large size dogs (70 lb or more as an adult).

BIOLOGICALLY APPROPRIATE

MEAT-BASED FOODS THAT MIRROR YOUR DOG’S EVOLUTIONARY DIET

The gray wolf is ancestor to all domestic dogs. While years of breeding have produced hundreds of ‘different-looking wolves’, the internal workings of modern dogs and their wolf cousins remain unchanged, so it’s no surprise that their dietary needs remain the same too.

Our award-winning Biologically Appropriate philosophy is simple: mirror the quantity, freshness, and variety of animal ingredients that dogs have evolved to eat, while limiting the long lists of synthetic ingredients that don’t belong in your dog’s natural diet.

• RICH IN MEAT (70%)

  Your dog is biologically adapted for a diet rich in meat. Equipped with sharp teeth, a single-hinge jaw, and a short digestive tract, domestic dogs are anatomically designed to metabolize protein and fat from animal ingredients. That’s why we loaded ACANA Kentucky Farmlands + Wholesome Grains with 70% free-run chicken, turkey, and duck.

• HIGH FRESH MEAT INCLUSIONS (1/2)

  Half of the animal ingredients in ACANA Kentucky Farmlands + Wholesome Grains are delivered to our kitchen authentically fresh or raw, so they are loaded with goodness and taste. Fresh means never frozen, so refrigeration is the only way we preserve our fresh ingredients. The other 1/2 are dried or oils to provide a strong and natural source of animal protein and fat.

• A VARIETY OF WHOLE MEAT

  In nature, your dog’s diet would include a wide assortment of prey animals that provide all the essential amino acids, vitamins, and minerals needed for peak health. ACANA Kentucky Farmlands + Wholesome Grains features a diversity of fresh and raw quality animal ingredients in richly nourishing WholePrey ratios of meat, organs, and cartilage or bone to mimic your dog’s natural diet. 

• RICH IN ANIMAL PROTEIN (31%)

  ACANA is entirely free of gluten, potato, or tapioca, commonly substituted for animal protein by many specialty dog foods to reduce costs and increase profit. Instead, ACANA Kentucky Farmlands + Wholesome Grains derives its rich protein content from quality animal ingredients (not plants), that support lean muscle mass and a healthy body weight, as well as nourish your dog according to his evolutionary needs.

• FRESH VEGETABLES & FRUIT

  ACANA features vegetables and fruit in limited quantities—meaning no extra non-essential carbohydrates to be stored as body fat. This helps maintain healthy blood-sugar levels, reduces the potential for fat storage, and promotes overall good health.
