That’s why ACANA Duck & Bartlett Pear is loaded with 50% duck, to nourish your dog according to his biological adaptation to a meat and protein rich diet. Raised cage-free in Ontario, Canada, our fresh duck arrives in WholePrey ratios including richly nourishing meat, organs, fat and cartilage — all of which deliver essential nutrients naturally, virtually eliminating the need for synthetic ingredients in our foods. Infusions of freeze-dried duck liver increase palatability dramatically and naturally — perfect for fussy dogs and dog lovers alike. *Duck ingredients are produced exclusively from cage-free ducks passed fit for human consumption. 50% LOCAL FRUITS & VEGETABLES ACANA DUCK & BARTLETT PEAR is bursting with a full 50% of healthful fruits and vegetables, including Bartlett pears — all delivered fresh (never frozen, no preservatives) from our rich prairie soils and the sun-drenched Okanagan valleys. LOW GLYCEMIC, LOW CARBOHYDRATE Not only is ACANA DUCK & BARTLETT PEAR grain-free, but more importantly this unique Limited Ingredient Diet is free of high glycemic carbohydrates, such as rice, tapioca and potato. Associated with obesity and diabetes, high glycemic carbohydrates break down quickly, causing a rapid and large rise in your dog’s blood sugar. That’s why ACANA DUCK & BARTLETT PEAR features low glycemic fruits and vegetables – locally produced of course – that release sugar slowly, causing your dog’s blood sugar to rise less over a longer period of time. That means your dog’s sensitivity to insulin is beneficially increased, and the propensity for fat storage is decreased. FISH-FREE OMEGA-3 Conventional Limited Ingredient foods often feature canola and sunflower oils, which do not contain a viable source of DHA and EPA essential fatty acids. ACANA is different. To support immunity and a luxuriant skin and hair coat, we infused each ACANA Single with marine algae — Mother Nature’s original source of DHA and EPA that’s perfectly metabolized by dogs! LOCALLY GROWN BOTANICALS Organic sea vegetables and digestive botanicals — grown specifically for ACANA in British Columbia’s Fraser Valley — include chicory root, ginger root, peppermint leaf, lemon balm, all of which nourish and tone your dog’s digestive tract. WHOLEPREY To perfectly and naturally meet the dietary needs of dogs, ACANA SINGLES feature richly nourishing meats, organs and cartilage (from Single Animal Source) which provide nutrients naturally, eliminating all synthetic ingredients except zinc. MEAT: abundant source of essential amino acids, so synthetics aren’t needed. ORGANS: rich in all essential vitamins, so synthetic vitamins are not needed. BONE & CARTILAGE: A rich natural source of minerals. ONLY ZINC IS ADDED. FREEZE-DRIED INFUSIONS ACANA Singles feature freeze-dried liver infusions (prepared in our own freeze-dry kitchens of course) which dramatically and naturally increases palatability, making ACANA Singles the perfect choice for fussy eaters.
