Product feeding

ACANA Senior benefits dogs of every breed and size. Like people, your dog is a unique individual and his feeding requirements will vary with his breed, environment, age and activity.

That’s why we suggest monitoring his weight and adjusting his rations as needed. We also recommend feeding him twice daily and that you remember to always keep fresh, clean water available to your cherished dog.

A BIOLOGICALLY APPROPRIATE CALORIE DISTRIBUTION

There are three sources of calories available to your senior dog: protein, fat and carbohydrates. While protein and fat are essential for your dog; carbohydrates are not. In fact, dogs require absolutely no carbohydrate in their diet.

Simple carbohydrates from cereal grains such as rice or corn cause blood sugar levels to elevate and fluctuate and when not used for energy, carbohydrates are quickly and easily stored in the body as fat. Indeed, excess carbohydrates are the leading dietary cause of overweight conditions in senior dogs of all breeds.

By providing more calories from protein and fat, and fewer calories from carbohydrates, ACANA provides a calorie distribution that mirrors your senior dog’s natural diet — promoting a long and happy life by helping reduce the risk of obesity, insulin resistance and diabetes.

CALORIE CONTENT AND DISTRIBUTION

Metabolizable energy for ACANA Senior is 3400 kcal/kg or 395 kcal per 250ml cup (115g).

Calories are distributed to support peak health with 40% from protein, 22% from fruits and vegetables, and 38% from fat.
