YOUR DOG IS UNIQUE
Dogs of all breeds and age stages can benefit from ACANA. Just like you, your dog is unique, and nutritional needs vary with their environment, age, and activity level. The table below provides a starting point to adjust as needed. Feed your dog twice daily and always have fresh water available.
† Use a standard 250ml 120g measuring cup. Serve dry or slightly moistened. Consult your veterinarian regularly. To help maintain freshness, we recommend sealing the bag tightly and storing it in a cool, dry place.

Metabolizable energy is 3393 kcal kg (407 kcal per 250 ml 120 g serving), with 32 of this coming from protein, 30 from fruits and vegetables, and 8 from fat.
BIOLOGICALLY APPROPRIATE
MEAT-BASED FOODS THAT REFLECT YOUR DOG'S EVOLUTIONARY NUTRITION.
The gray wolf is the ancestor of all dogs. Over the years, the gray wolf has produced hundreds of "different-looking" wolves, but its digestive system hasn't changed, so it's no surprise that its nutritional needs have remained the same.
Our award-winning Biologically Appropriate philosophy is simple: limit carbohydrates and synthetic ingredients to reflect the amount, freshness, and variety of meat dogs are naturally adapted to eat.
RICH IN PROTEIN (1) AND MEAT (P)
- Your dog is a carnivore and has a biological need for a meat-rich diet. Equipped with sharp teeth, a single-jointed jaw, and a short digestive tract, domestic dogs are anatomically designed to break down the proteins and fats from meat.
- That's why we've filled ACANA Grass-Fed Lamb with 100 raw lamb, pastured on New Zealand farms—all of which are deemed fit for human consumption before being added to our food.
- Completely free of pea and potato protein concentrates, ACANA derives its rich protein from animal ingredients (not plants), supporting lean muscle mass and providing your dog with complete nutrition.
HIGH FRESH MEAT INGREDIENTS (1 2)
- We use fresh meats in their most natural and nutritious form. That's why 1 2 of the lamb in ACANA Grass-Fed is fresh meat, and the other 1 2 is cured meats or fats to provide a concentrated source of nutritious meat protein.
THE ONLY ANIMAL PROTEIN SOURCE (1)
- ACANA Grass-Fed Lamb offers the only animal protein source—meat, organs, and cartilage—all in nutrient-rich WholePrey ratios, all in a natural diet to provide your dog with all the nutrients he needs.
WHOLEPREY RATIOS
- In her infinite wisdom, Mother Nature has combined the essential nutrients in whole animals to perfectly meet a dog's needs. Muscle provides protein and fat organs provide vitamins and minerals and bones and cartilage provide calcium and phosphorus.
- ACANA provides meat, organs, and cartilage in WholePrey ratios, keeping nutrients highly bioavailable—significantly reducing the need for synthetic vitamins or supplements.
LIMITED CARBOHYDRATE (0)
- Your dog's nutritional requirements don't include carbohydrates, and even in a natural diet, they are very low. While carbohydrates are known to be one of the leading causes of obesity and diabetes, conventional dog foods generally contain more than 50 carbohydrates.
- That's why ACANA limits total carbohydrates, replacing fast-digesting carbohydrates like rice, tapioca, and potatoes with healthy, low-glycemic fruits and vegetables like squash and greens. These enter the bloodstream slowly, preventing spikes in blood sugar and preventing potential fat storage.
