ACANA Regional Appalachian Ranch Dry Dog Food

Honoring the Appalachian ranching heritage, this region-inspired food is loaded with Angus beef, Yorkshire pork, grass-fed lamb, American bison, and freshwater catfish. Delivered fresh or raw in WholePrey™ ratios, and brimming with goodness and taste, it features a rich diversity of meats, tripe, liver, kidney, and cartilage that mirror your dog's evolutionary diet and nourish peak health naturally, without the need for a long list of synthetic ingredients and supplements. It is entirely free of pea or potato protein concentrates, which are often substituted for meat protein by other foods to reduce costs. Instead, ACANA derives its rich protein from premium animal ingredients that support lean muscle mass and a healthy body weight.

Carbohydrates are also limited, and fast carbohydrates are replaced with low-glycemic, locally grown vegetables and fruits. This helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels, reduces the potential for fat storage, and promotes overall good health. Prepared in Kentucky DogStar® kitchens from America's best and freshest ingredients, Regionals Appalachian Ranch is guaranteed to keep your dog healthy, happy, and strong.
