In Mother Nature's kitchen there are no synthetic supplements, and dogs and wolves derive all of their nutritional needs by consuming whole prey animals. Consuming an entire animal provides protein, vitamins and minerals, as well as calcium and phosphorus. ACANA mirrors the natural diet, applying our Meat Math and incorporating WholePreyTM meat, organs and cartilage in ratios that deliver nutrients naturally. By providing a concentrated, natural source of virtually every nutrient your dog needs to thrive, you eliminate the need for long lists of synthetic additives. That's why zinc and copper are our only supplements.
