Feeding Guide:

Ideal daily feeding portions will vary for different dogs, depending on age, size, breed, environment and activity levels. Because Carna4 is so concentrated in high quality nutrients that are easily absorbed by your dog, you will need to feed 15% to 25% fewer cups per day than most other dry foods. The amounts shown below are guidelines only and you should carefully monitor your dog’s weight, until an ideal balance is found:

Transitioning to Carna4: It will take several days for your dog to adjust to the richer nutrients in Carna4. Start by mixing one part Carna4 to four parts of your dog’s old food. Gradually increase the proportion of Carna4 over 7-10 days until you are feeding all Carna4. Remember that you will feed slightly fewer cups of Carna4 than other dry foods.

Your dog may have larger stools in the early part of his or her transition period as the better quality fiber in Carna4 helps to clean out the colon. This is a normal and healthy effect and you will see the stools return to a normal size later in the transition. When transitioning to Carna4 from another diet, try sprinkling in some Flora4 ground sprouted seeds food topper to help aid digestion and normalize stools faster.

Feeding Your Puppy: Feed small quantities in 3 or 4 feedings at the same times each day, reducing to twice per day after 6 months. Divide the total cups per day from the chart above by the number of feedings to determine how much to set out each time. After 20 minutes, remove any food remaining in the puppy’s bowl.

Pregnant or Nursing Dogs: Add up to 50% more food per day for pregnant dogs after the first 6 weeks. When nursing, the mother should be allowed to free feed throughout the day. She may eat 2 or 3 times as much as a normal adult during this time.

Remember to:

  • Provide your dog with plenty of fresh, clean drinking water at all times.
  • Bring your dog to the veterinarian regularly.
  • Give your dog play and exercise every day.

    We were already nourishing our first lab mix with Carna4 when we inherited an unhealthy second lab mix. With some exercise and love, this food has been a huge part of turning her into a new dog. She is now sleek, energetic and eats with gusto. Our dogs absolutely love this food. We go through 2 bags a month, but I feel it saves us on vet bills in the end.

    My Doberman Rua was diagnosed with DCM at age 3. I asked the vet to test her very early on. I had her on a really good food but wanted something with very little legumes. This formulation really fit the bill and she loves it! We went to the vet this year and her counts are down. We put her on medication, added supplements and changed her food. I am thrilled with the results. This food is worth every penny

    Our yellow lab (Jessie) like most labs will eat everything.. literally everything. Reading many articles on the proper nutrition dogs require to maintain health and vitality started me to research our current “vet / breeder recommended dry food”. It quickly became very apparent that our food was not providing our lab with the essential proteins and vitamins, fibre and fat. Most of it was filler and the labelling broke down corn into several components (flour, meal, husk, etc.. ) so the numbers looked low, but collectively, I was feeding my dog corn. I spent many days reading reviews and educating myself on the proper ingredients ( first four ) and the source of the ingredients (local, Canada, US and foreign ). It amazed me that many of the respected brands were sourced or made overseas, the content and quality of ingredients questionable, and ownership of the manufacturer was by major corporations that did focus on animal food. After a few more days of research I came across CARNA4. Reviews were all positive and placed it in the best of the best category next to a raw food diet. Ingredients are amazing, unreal quality control and it surpasses AAFCO standards. I was fortunate to speak to Brandon Forder (Nutrition Expert ) from Canadian Pet Connection who helped confirm my selection based on what I was wanting in a dry food. Transition to Carna4 Chicken was a little longer than expected. Our dog was now getting real food and not corn filler with chicken meal so she had to adjust. Since the transition, our lab has lost some weight, is full of energy, has a beautiful coat and no dry skin. With a smaller size kibble, Jessie takes a bit longer to eat her meal which helps her digestion. Since switching to Carna4, many of our dog friend owners have done the same with great outcomes.

    I’ve been changing my dog’s (whippet) food again and again (brands), because she was stopping eating it. I was also searching for a better brand and for better ingredients to help my dog to stay healthy. I wanted to have a canadian brand too. This brand is what I’ve found the best after my research. Not too much carbs (it’s often a problem in certain brands, because they contain too much carbs or doesn’t indicate how much they contain). I’m satisfied with this product, for now 3 years. Thanks to this website to keep selling it, I don’t have any store nearby that sells it.

    We’ve been feeding our new rescue Shih Tzu this kibble for 7 months now and we are in love with it. We do use this for his training, putting half of his daily kibble in with his food, and keeping the other half aside to use as training treats each day. This high quality food has helped us transform the tiny, malnourished little guy covered in dry, matted hair… into the vibrant, healthy, muscular, active dog he is today with thick, soft, glossy hair and a healthy digestive tract!

    I purchased carna 4 chicken a couple weeks ago for my 4 month old puppy after a long research to find the best food that is high quality with balanced nutrients. I introduced carna 4 with the kibbles he had previously to see how he adapts, oh my God, he picked carna 4 only leaving the previous ones out which he ate after. He loves carna 4 so much! So synthetic and fillers. Was so concerned with DCM, so feels so good knowing I’m feeding my puppy safe/high quality/balanced food! Prior to purchase, I consulted the customer service which were answered so kindly as well. I will be and stay as your loyal customer. Are you looking for the right food for your fur babies? This is it!

    I am so happy I found this kibble dog food for my miniature poodle. I have been feeding it to him for about 1-1/2 years now and he still likes it and digest it well. Good product. Highly recommend. Thank you! ❤️

    I am so happy I finally found a dry dog food that is healthy and that my dog digests well! I have a 9 year old miniature poodle who has a very sensitive digestive system and he used to have serious pancreas problems and multiple food allergies as a pup. He would often vomit and refuse to eat as almost all dog foods made him sick. However, he does like CARNA4 Chicken flavour dry dog food and he digests it very well! We’re so happy!

    My dogs love all the Cara4 products and I trust them. It was a long process and research to find a food that we are comfortable feeding our babies.

    I’ve been feeding my 3 dogs Carna4 foods for the past 5 years after having tried other so called top nutrition formulas. The only diet that has proven health benefits is Carna4. Allergies and otitis have disappeared, coats are much more lustrous and les mouth healthcare such as dental cleaning is needed My dogs are customers for life

  11. Joanne Valois (verified owner)

    Love this dog food! My 11 year old mix was having severe skin sores and rashes during the summer months. Switched to this food brand and all is great now, very happy.
