BORÉAL
Vital Large Breed Chicken Meal - Grain Free
Boréal 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 which can be used to help keep weight off your dog as well 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 Boréal Dog Foods use Availa®Pet – a special collection of minerals bound to amino acids to make the minerals ‘bio-available’. The organic zinc in Availa®Pet easily absorbed and is many times more available to a dog than other zinc sources. Zinc is essential for healthy skin & coat.

adult amount. Nursing dogs may require 2-4 times the adult amount. Feed as much
food as required to maintain the pregnant, nursing dog’s ideal body condition.
