As a descendent of the gray wolf, dogs are also biologically adapted for this meat-rich diet. Acana strives to mirror the menu your carnivore would choose in nature, by providing a proper ratio of meat, organs and cartilage to deliver nutrients the complete and natural way. No need for lots of synthetic supplements!
