PACIFIC PILCHARD
IT’S ALL ABOUT THE MEAT

Today’s dogs share a similar biological makeup with their ancestors, and we believe their diet should reflect that.
How can you determine if your dog’s food is Biologically Appropriate™? It’s straightforward: simply answer three meat-related questions.
-
WHAT PERCENTAGE OF FISH? (50%)
With no plant protein concentrates, ACANA Pacific Pilchard is packed with 50% fish—up to double the amount found in most specialty dog foods.
-
WHAT AMOUNT OF FRESH FISH? (1/2)
Half of the fish used in ACANA Singles is FRESH, delivering vital nutrients in their most wholesome form, while the other half is dried for a concentrated source of nourishing fish protein.
-
HOW MANY TYPES OF FISH? (1)
ACANA Pacific Pilchard contains a single source of animal protein in WholePrey™ ratios, featuring fish, organs, and cartilage, providing a natural and comprehensive nutrient profile.
-
Pacific pilchard – whole and fresh from Canada’s North Pacific.
In nature, there are no synthetic food supplements; dogs and wolves fulfill their nutritional needs by consuming whole fish. Meat provides essential protein; organs deliver vitamins and minerals; bones contribute calcium and phosphorus.
