Continuation of Product Description:

Acana Grasslands dog food contains three sources of hypo-allergenic protein of particularly high quality:

  • New Zealand ranch-raised lamb is especially easily digestible and rich in proteins, B-vitamins, zinc and iron.
  • Canadian pike and northern walleye are processed daily fresh from the sea and provide nutritious protein, selenium and vitamin B12.
  • Canadian eggs: A-grade eggs are delivered daily to the manufacturer and provide an excellent combination of nutrients, including all essential amino acids.
Further advantages of Acana dog food from Canada are:
  • Highly nutritious Omega-3 fatty acids (DHA & EPA) from freshly-caught fish, for healthy skin and a shiny coat
  • No grains, low carbohydrate content & a high proportion of good-quality proteins cater optimally for your dog's natural nutritional requirements
  • Canadian fruit and vegetables supply natural phytonutrients and antioxidant vitamins
  • Three highly digestible animal proteins: Lamb, fish and egg - grain-free, soya, chicken, turkey or beef
  • Without artificial colours, flavourings or conservatives, GM-free
  • All animal-based ingredients in Acana dog food are sourced from animals permitted for human-grade consumption
Acana dog food complies with the AAFCO (Association of American Feed Control Officials) nutrient profiles for dog food for dogs of all ages.

Dogs are carnivorous by nature. Acana dry dog food provides your dog with the same variety of natural meats that it would find in the wild. At the same time, Acana recognises that most of our dogs now have lower calorie requirements. The high proportion of animal-based proteins, low carbohydrate content and grain-free make-up of Acana are the ideal conditions for your dog's life-long well-being and health.

Acana dog food - inspired by nature - is characterised by its 5 principles:

    1. Freshness and variety are central to the natural diet
The natural diet of cats and dogs contains a variety of animal proteins. This is why Acana dog food provides a rich choice of highest-quality meats, providing our dogs with a diversity of essential proteins and fats to match the natural diet. Every Acana dog food contains at least three different fresh animal products, such as free-range chicken, eggs and wild-caught fish. The fresh, unfrozen and conservative-free ingredients are delivered daily to producer Champion Petfoods.

    2. High in animal proteins:
From Dachshunds to Great Danes, all breeds of dog carry the same DNA patterns and share a single evolutionary origin — the grey wolf. And just like their wild cousins, dogs are carnivores, with a short digestive tract and a body that's highly efficient at metabolising animal proteins and fats. This is why Acana dog food boasts a high meat and protein content for excellent health and well-being.

    3. Low in grains and carbohydrates:
Dogs and cats are anatomically adapted for a diet high in animal proteins and fats with very few, if any, carbohydrates. That's because carbohydrates are 'empty calories' — simple sugars that provide no nutritional value to dogs other than calories. Once ingested, carbohydrates convert rapidly to glucose which causes blood sugar to elevate and fluctuate. Carbohydrates easily convert to body fat and are linked to obesity as well as other health problems. Acana therefore refrain from using carbohydrates.

    4. Rich in fruit and vegetables:
Acana cat food contains a minimum of 20% Canadian fruit and vegetables rich in naturally occurring vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients.
  • Red Delicious apples from British Columbia provide a source of healthy fibre and are rich in phytonutrients — natural antioxidants that protect cells from free radical damage within the body.
  • Cranberries from Fraser Valley: cranberries have long been valued for the treatment of urinary tract infections and are a rich source of anthocyanins — a natural antioxidant thought to have beneficial effects on health.
  • Alfalfa from Alberta, a particularly nutritious source of calcium, magnesium, carotene and vitamins A and K.
  • Black currants from Alberta and Saskatchewan contain Omega-6 fatty acids which are particularly easily absorbed by the body.
  • Russet and Yukon Gold potatoes from Manitoba, cooked at a low temperature, provide an excellent source of Vitamins B and C as well as potassium, copper, magnesium and iron.

    5. Herbal and botanical extracts to strengthen the body and spirit:
In the wild dogs and cats instinctively consume grasses and plants which enhance their well-being. Acana cat food contains a special selection of herbal and botanical extracts, such as juniper berries, angelica, red raspberry leaves, dandelion root, peppermint leaves and marigold. These natural extracts help to eliminate toxins from the body and act as tonics, helping to strengthen organs such as the heart and digestive system.

Acana dog food is made in Alberta, Canada, by the family-run business Champion Petfoods.

Shipping Surcharge for Individual Products
The shipping costs for your order are generally covered by zooplus (shipping for all orders of £29 or more is free). This is almost never a problem for us, except for a very few items that have a very unfavorable ratio of weight/volume to value.

These products contain a shipping surcharge already included in the price, which may result in a higher price than at traditional pet stores who are not influenced by shipping costs.

Please note:
  • All products with a shipping surcharge are marked.
  • The shipping surcharge is already included in the price of the item.
  • The shipping surcharge will not be charged separately or additionally in your order.
  • Depending on the product, the surcharge will be between £0.50 and £2.30.

You Have the Choice
We want to provide you with this information so that you know you can trust the prices at zooplus. With the shipping surcharge, you can recognize items that have higher prices due to high shippping costs immediately.
