Boreal Vital Large Breed Chicken Meal is a grain-free diet with a limited ingredient list and single-source protein. Designed with large breeds in mind we use a large kibble size, have a moderate level of glucosamine. This is an everyday diet that can be used to help keep weight off your dog as well as can be used as a hypoallergenic formula. Using a core of beans and peas to replace the grains found in many dog foods, our low glycemic index ingredients will help keep a dog feeling full longer after they eat. We use chickens grown in Ontario and Quebec. This is a diet for all life stages and is grain and gluten-free. Naturally preserved. Our Boreal Dog Foods use AvailaPet a special collection of minerals bound to amino acids to make the minerals bio-available. The organic zinc in AvailaPet is easily absorbed and is many times more available to a dog than other zinc sources. Zinc is essential for healthy skin & coat.
