ACANA Adult Small Breed is loaded with free-run chicken and wild-caught flounder in WholePrey ratios of meat, organs, cartilage, and bone, with the added nutrition of cage-free eggs, delivering everything your small-breed dog needs in order to stay happy, healthy, and strong.

ACANA benefits dogs of every variety. Just like you, your dog is unique with feeding requirements that vary with environment, age, and activity. This feeding recommendation provides a starting point, to be adjusted as needed to maintain optimum weight and peak conditioning. We suggest monitoring your dog’s weight and adjusting rations as needed. † Use a standard 250ml/120g measuring cup. Serve dry or lightly moistened. See your veterinarian regularly. To help maintain freshness, we recommend sealing the bag tightly and storing it in a cool, dry location. PUPPIES: at 1 1/2 – 3 months old feed twice the adult amount; at 3-6 months feed 1 1/2 times the adult amount; at 6-11 months feed 1 1/4 times the adult amount. GESTATION: increase from 25% to 50% of the adult amount. LACTATION: feed ‘free choice’.
