Key Product Benefits
- Natural ingredients with added vitamins and minerals
- Real chicken protein
- Formulated for healthy skin & coat
- Easy to digest, less clean-up
- For overweight & less active dogs
Natural ingredients, fortified with the required vitamins and minerals, truly make the difference. MAX® Dog Food is naturally preserved – no artificial preservatives like BHA, BHT or ethoxyquin. Nurto does not add artificial flavors or sweeteners. MAX® Dog Food uses whole grain wheat, wheat flour and rice; never any sorghum, ground corn, whole grain corn, corn meal or corn grits which can be more difficult to digest
- The #1 ingredient in MAX® Weight Control Food is chicken meal, made from real chicken with most of the water and fat removed. MAX® Weight Control Food never uses chicken heads, feet or intestines, which may be found in products containing chicken by-product meal.
- Because the ingredients in MAX® Weight Control Dog Food are highly digestible, more nutrition goes into your dog and less stool goes into your backyard. This means faster, easier cleanup and a more hygienic environment for you and your family.
- The best food in the world is useless if your dog won’t eat it. That’s why The Nutro Company works hard on taste. With quality ingredients and their natural FlavorMAX® system, The Nutro company guarantees your dog will love the taste of MAX® Dog Food or your money back.
- Scientifically formulated with a winning combination of Omega-6 linoleic acid, Vitamin E and zinc, MAX® Weight Control Dog Food helps promote a rich, full coat and supple skin. Many brands contain less linoleic acid – check their labels and compare to MAX® Weight Control .
- MAX® Weight Control Dog Food really delivers with quality ingredients, balanced nutrition and guaranteed great taste. Many owners find that highly digestible MAX® dry foods cost only pennies per day more to feed. Try a bag today. Your satisfaction is guaranteed.
- Nurto suggests serving their NUTRO® MAX® dry kibble with any of our NUTRO® MAX® canned formulas. For an added treat, try MAX® Bones or MAX STEAKS® biscuits.
