Premium Quality

Keeping with the current, schools of fish make their daily feeding migration around the riverbend in search of the ocean. Fishermen take quick action during this migration, catching a bounty of fish fresh from the ocean. Your dog instinctually craves animal protein, which is why we included premium quality whitefish meal in this unique recipe. Lean meat protein combined with wholesome vegetables and fruits and essential vitamins and chelated minerals make Meridian™ Riverbend™ Whitefish Meal 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 sweet potatoes, 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 whitefish meal is the primary ingredient in our Meridian™ Riverbend™ Recipe. Whitefish meal provides more meat protein and roughly 4-5 times the amount of nutrients as the same amount of whitefish. The reason for this is that whitefish is approximately 70% water, whereas, dried whitefish meal is only about 5% water. 100 lbs. of whitefish meal provides 62 lbs. of high-quality protein while 100 lbs. of whitefish provides only 10-15 lbs. of protein.

Good health begins with proper feeding. Meridian can help maintain your dog’s health when combined with exercise, veterinary care, & controlling intake of other food & treats. Use this chart as a guide, adjusting as necessary to maintain optimal weight. Portions will vary according to age, breed, temperament & environment. When introducing Meridian, mix increasing amounts of Meridian with decreasing amounts of the current food over a 7 to 10 day period. During gestation & lactation, feed 2 to 4 times the portions recommended for the weight of your adult dog. Puppies often begin to eat solid foods at 3 to 4 weeks of age. Food can be served dry or with warm water (3 parts food to 1 part water). Offer clean, fresh water at all times. See your veterinarian regularly.
