Common questions about this product, answered.
Q.What kind of dog is Acana Sport & Agility made for?
A.Acana positions Sport & Agility as a high-protein, high-energy recipe for active, athletic and working dogs - the kind herding, doing flyball, agility or sustained exercise. It carries roughly 35% crude protein and 22% fat (about 50% of calories from fat, 33% from protein per Acana), supplying the rich, varied meat protein and fat such dogs need for endurance and recovery. Less-active or couch-bound dogs may gain weight on it, so it suits genuinely busy dogs best. — PriceJive
Q.What are the main ingredients and is it grain-free?
A.Yes, it is grain-free. Acana lists it as roughly 75% quality animal ingredients balanced with about 25% fruit and vegetables. The named animal proteins include fresh chicken, chicken meal, turkey meal, fresh chicken giblets (liver, heart), fresh eggs, raw hake and herring meal, with produce such as pumpkin, butternut squash, carrots, apples, pears, kale and spinach. Acana states there is no added grain, corn, wheat, soy or tapioca, and no synthetic preservatives. The high meat content keeps the focus on animal protein rather than fillers. — PriceJive
Q.Is it suitable for puppies, and for large-breed dogs?
A.Acana states this recipe meets FEDIAF nutrient profiles for all life stages EXCEPT growth of large-size dogs. In plain terms: it can be fed to adults and to puppies of small and medium breeds, but it is NOT formulated for growing large-breed puppies - their bones and joints need a controlled-growth diet, so a large-breed puppy formula is the safer choice. For any puppy, confirm the feeding plan with your vet. Adult large-breed dogs are fine on it. — PriceJive
Q.How do I feed it and what bag sizes are sold in South Africa?
A.Acana recommends feeding twice daily with fresh water always available, measured with a standard 250ml/120g cup (about 447 kcal per cup), served dry or lightly moistened. Because it is energy-dense, start from Acana's chart for your dog's weight and activity, then adjust to keep an ideal body condition - active dogs need more, less-active dogs less. In South Africa it is commonly sold in 11.4kg and 17kg bags; the larger bag is usually the better cost-per-kg for multi-dog or big athletic dogs. — PriceJive
