Acana Heritage Light & Fit Dry Dog Food Information
ACANA Light & Fit is brimming with meat, including free-run chicken, nest-laid eggs and wild-caught flounder delivered fresh from our region for unequalled goodness and taste. Overweight dogs benefit from a diet rich in protein to promote lean muscle mass, yet limited in carbohydrates that can contribute to excess body fat.
Key Benefits:
- Rich in meat (65%) including cage-free chicken, wild-caught flounder and whole nest-laid eggs sourced from regional farms deemed fit for human consumption.
- Carbohydrate-limited (30%). That’s why ACANA limits carbohydrates and replaces fast carbohydrates (such as rice, potato and tapioca) with low-glycemic fruits and vegetables.
- Supplement with Zinc
Made Specifically for: Overweight adult dogs 1 year and older.
Please note images are of 6kg bags only, packaging may vary depending on weight.

YOUR DOG IS SPECIAL
ACANA benefits dogs of every variety. Just like you, your dog is unique with feeding requirements that vary with environment, age and activity.
The table below 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. We recommend feeding twice daily and always keeping fresh, clean water available.

My older boy loves this. He is overweight and usually very fussy; also not a big fan of dry food. But he will scoff this down with no issues. With no increase to his exercise, he is also losing weight on this product as well. No complaints from me!

Yes, I'd recommend this product to a friend

My boys like it even though it is considered a 'diet' style biscuit. They didn't hesitate to eat it the first time i tried them on it and they haven't had any issues with it considering their allergies. Definitely value for money.
