Premium Quality
As each new day turns to light, farmers greet and feed their flocks knowing that one day their fowl will provide eggs and meat. Humans and dogs alike benefit from this bountiful harvest. Your dog instinctually craves rich animal protein, which is why we included premium quality chicken meal in this unique recipe. Hearty meat protein combined with wholesome vegetables and fruits and essential vitamins and chelated minerals make Meridian™ Daybreak™ Chicken Recipe a nutritious and tasty meal for your dog, promoting optimal overall health.
No Nonsense
Guaranteed levels of antioxidant nutrients such as Vitamin E and Vitamin C, blended with nutrient-rich vegetables and fruits, help support a healthy immune system. Fibers from apples, blueberries, cranberries, carrots and spinach, along with our highly controlled cooking process, support excellent digestion and nutrient absorption. This unique recipe is scientifically formulated without the use of by-products, using only the best ingredients, to give your dog a no-nonsense meal every time.
The Meal Deal
Real chicken meal is the primary ingredient in our Meridian™ Daybreak™ Recipe. Chicken meal provides more meat protein and roughly 4-5 times the amount of nutrients as the same amount of chicken. The reason for this is that chicken is approximately 70% water, whereas, dried chicken meal is only about 5% water. 100 lbs. of chicken meal provides 65 lbs. of high-quality protein, while 100 lbs. of chicken provides only 10-15 lbs. of protein.
Made without grain or gluten, Meridian™ Daybreak™ Recipe is an excellent food option for your dog.
Chicken meal protein and egg protein combine to provide a rich & balanced source of protein to help build strong muscles and support your dog's overall health.
Meridian™ is 100% guaranteed for taste & nutrition. With a combination of essential vitamins & chelated minerals, your dog’s system can more easily absorb necessary nutrients for growth & healthy body maintenance.
The balanced ratio of Omega-6 & -3 fatty acids supports a proper lipid balance for healthy skin & coat. L-Carnitine helps burn fat & maintain lean muscle mass to support an active lifestyle.
Our BPA-Free plastic packaging is made in North America primarily using clean natural gas instead of crude oil, an environmentally conscious manufacturing method.
