Zignature Limited Ingredient Grain Free Catfish Dog Food 4 LB

Product Information:

This formula is naturally high in protein, healthy fats and muscle-building amino acids. This high-protein formula is a good way to maintain lean muscle mass and has a great taste your dog will love.

Globally Sourced - Meat First.

All Zignature recipes are based on a meat-first philosophy because dogs are carnivores and require high-quality animal protein to thrive. The first listed ingredient in any pet food is vitally important because there’s more of that ingredient than any other. Not only is meat the first ingredient in all our recipes, but we also include meat or fish meal as the second ingredient. Compare this to many well-known pet foods that use high-starch carbohydrate fillers as their first or second ingredient, and you’ll quickly see why Zignature offers your pet the correct nutrition for enhanced vitality.

PUPPIES Feed up to 2 times per pound of body weight over adult levels.PREGNANT FEMALES Minimal increase needed during first 6 weeks. Weeks 7, 8, and 9 increase up to 25%.

LACTATING FEMALES Immediately after whelping, nutritional demand increases by 50% compared to maintenance levels. During peak lactation (around 4-5 weeks), increase feeding up to 300% of regular intake. Feed in 3 equal meals per day.

When switching your dog’s diet, we recommend that it should be done gradually over 5-7 days, increasing the amount each day with the present diet as sudden change in diet may result in digestive disturbances.

See your veterinarian regularly. Keep fresh water available.

Zignature® Catfish Formula for dogs is formulated to meet the nutritional levels established by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for all life stages, except growth of large size dogs (70 lbs or more as an adult).

Feeding Trials
Zignature Food for Dogs is formulated to meet and exceed the nutritional levels established by AAFCO (The Association of American Feed Control Officials). To conduct the feeding trials, we partnered with BSM Partners, which has identified a much stronger AAFCO study protocol that truly measures the nutritional adequacy of dogs compared to standard AAFCO studies.
