Frequently Asked Questions About ActiveTM Dog Food To help you get to know us better, here’s a round-up of common questions about Active™ Performance Nutrition for Canine Athletes. Why is ActiveTM called a “performance nutrition dog food”?ExpandActive™ is called a performance nutrition dog food because it is a very nutrient-dense food with higher kilocalories and top-quality ingredients to ensure maximum canine performance and weight maintenance during heavy activity. With Active™, the words “performance nutrition” are not just marketing terms but a nutritional classification. Why is ActiveTM good for your dog?ExpandDogs process fat extremely well – much better than humans. An active or performance dog needs slow-burning energy sources to avoid overheating later in a workout, and animal fat is the best one there is. If you see a so-called performance food that does not have animal fat in the top 4 or 5 ingredients, there is probably not enough bio-available fat to support high performance. Isn’t whole chicken or chicken better than chicken meal?ExpandFor concentrated energy and protein, chicken meal is preferred as a dog food ingredient. Unlike chicken meal, whole chicken is approximately 75-85% water and requires that another meat protein source must follow immediately after it on the ingredient list to ensure adequate meat protein. Where do you purchase your meat ingredients?ExpandAll are purchased in the U.S. with the exception of lamb meal. Our lamb meal is sourced from New Zealand because U.S. lamb meal is not approved for use in pet food. Does your food have prebiotics?ExpandYes, the Active™ formulas include prebiotics to support healthy digestion and provide immune system support. Does your food have DHA or glucosamine in it?ExpandActive™ formulas contain both DHA and glucosamine that are derived from natural sources. We do not add artificially sourced supplements of these ingredients. How do I transition from my current food over to ActiveTM?ExpandSudden changes can be traumatic to a dog’s digestive system and cause upset. We recommend mixing progressively smaller quantities of the current food with increasingly larger quantities of Active™ over a period of 7 days until the dog is completely on Active™. Where is ActiveTM made?ExpandActive™ is manufactured in the U.S. in a company-owned facility. Does ActiveTM contain chemical additives and preservatives like BHA, BHT, and ethoxyquin?ExpandNo. Active™ is made with only natural preservatives such as Vitamin C and mixed tocopherols. Is ActiveTM only for working and sporting dogs?ExpandAbsolutely not! Active™ is an excellent food for non-sporting dogs as long as you choose the appropriate formula. Active™ Levels 1 and 2 work very well for less active dogs provided they are not overfed. Active™’s performance nutrition provides the same health benefits to your house dog as it does for sporting dogs. Is ActiveTM good for less active dogs?ExpandEven for a less active dog, it is better to choose a high-quality food and just feed them less of it. Low-calorie foods for active or performance dogs won’t give them adequate nutrition and may result in lots of backyard cleanup. What should I feed pregnant or lactating females?ExpandAll Active™ dog foods are formulated to be fed to pregnant and/or lactating females.
