Boréal strives to make the best food for every dog, sourcing every possible ingredient from Canadian farms & fisheries. Functional Large Breed Puppy is high meat & low carb, with low glycemic index oats and barley added as 'good grains'. Boréal centres around low glycemic foods to help keep your pet healthy. Boréal Dog Foods use AvailaPet - a special collection of minerals bound to amino acids to make the minerals 'bio-available'. The organic zinc in AvailaPet is easily absorbed and many times more available to a dog than other zinc sources. Zinc is essential for healthy skin & coat.
