Just like his wild cousins, your large breed dog is a carnivore, possessing a biological need for a diet rich and varied in fresh whole meats.
That’s why we loaded ACANA Adult Large Breed with free-run chicken, wild-caught flounder and nest-laid eggs, in WholePrey™ ratios that nourish naturally, without long lists of synthetic additives.
Because excess weight can stress bones and joints, ACANA is free of fast carbohydrates such as tapioca or potato, providing extra meat proteins to promote lean muscle mass while managing body fat.
Prepared in our award-winning kitchens from Canada’s best and freshest ingredients, Biologically Appropriate™ ACANA keeps your big dog healthy, happy and strong — guaranteed.

YOUR DOG IS SPECIAL
ACANA benefits dogs of every variety. Just like you, your dog is unique with feeding requirements that 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 rations as needed. We recommend feeding twice daily and always keeping fresh, clean water available.
† Use a standard 250ml/120g 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 Adult Large Breed is formulated to meet the nutritional levels established by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for all life stages.

DESIGNED FOR CARNIVORES
They might look different, but your dog shares his anatomy with the grey wolf – which means he’s evolved as a carnivore and adapted for a diet rich in meat, 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 features richly nourishing proteins and fats, while limiting unwanted carbohydrates.
