The Best of Nature. The Best of Science. The Best of Health.
Everything your dog needs to live a long, healthy life.

Feeding Natural Choice Ultra is the best thing you can possibly do for your dog. The nutritionists at Nutro and at major universities have combined the very best of nature and science to produce a dog food that’s designed for one thing only--the health and well-being of your dog.

The ingredient listing is unlike any other food you can buy. It's all about health. Nutro is committed to using the finest, costliest natural ingredients, highly digestible proteins, added vitamins and minerals, and specialized nutrients found only in Natural Choice Ultra. Nutro never uses ingredients like chicken by-products (head, feet, intestines) or ground corn or grain sorghum. And no chemicals like BHA, BHT, ethoxyquin, propyl gallate, or sodium hexametaphosphate. Natural Choice Ultra is a whole new natural category of dog food--not just natural--not just the latest science--not just more nutrition--Ultra Nutrition.

Your dog is your companion and friend, part of the family. Your dog makes you smile. That's why Nutro developed Natural Choice Ultra. Natural Choice Ultra isn't just good for dogs. It makes them feel good. When you feed Natural Choice Ultra you can feel good too that you're doing the very best for your trusted friend and family member.

Natural Choice Ultra's Natural Ingredients and Nutritional Benefits

Natural Ingredients
Natural vitamin E, combined with other natural antioxidants, keeps every nutritious bit of Natural Choice Ultra Puppy fresh and in perfect condition, without synthetic preservatives.

Three Animal Proteins
Combining chicken, lamb, and salmon proteins provides the ideal amino acid profile to increase the bioavailability of these essential amino acids for better muscle development and overall performance.

Salmon Meal
Salmon meal is a highly concentrated source of essential amino acids and DHA for your puppy's central nervous system development. Helps provide good vision and can improve your puppy's sense of smell. The brain and retina contain large amounts of DHA.

Chicken Meal
Chicken meal is a highly digestible animal protein that helps build muscle tissue and provides the special amino acids needed for a lustrous hair coat.

Lamb Meal
A great tasting, highly digestible animal protein because puppies need plenty of protein for powerful muscles, strong bones and tendons.

Sunflower Oil
Sunflower oil is high in linoleic acid, the only fatty acid proven essential for healthy skin and coat. Many puppy foods contain lower levels of linoleic acid, but Natural Choice Ultra Puppy has up to 139% more linoleic acid than other leading brands.

Flax Seed
There are many omega 3 fatty acids but the alpha-linolenic acid in flax seed is the key omega 3. It combines with the linoleic acid in sunflower oil and zinc to provide guaranteed healthy skin and shiny coat.

Whole Brown Rice
Whole brown rice is a rich source of fiber, vitamin B2, and minerals like iron and magnesium.

Glucosamine & Chondroitin Sulfate
Growing puppies love to romp and play and they may experience hip and joint problems. Joint cartilage contains high levels of chondroitin and the synovial fluid in the joints contains high levels of glucosamine. These naturally occurring nutrients can help maintain joint health and repair joint cartilage.

Taurine
Natural Choice Ultra Puppy contains guaranteed levels of taurine, an amino acid and antioxidant necessary for a strong, healthy heart.

Probiotics
Bacillus licheniformis and bacillus subtilis are probiotics that help promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in your puppy's digestive tract.

Cranberry
Cranberry, along with its great taste, is known to help maintain urinary tract health.

Kelp
Kelp is an excellent natural source of minerals such as iodine.

Wholesome Oatmeal
Oatmeal is an excellent source of moderately fermentable fiber that digests more slowly to provide energy and stamina over a longer period of time.

Garlic
Along with the flavor your puppy loves, garlic is a rich source of selenium, a powerful natural antioxidant.

Marigold Extract
Marigold extract is a natural source of lutein to promote good vision.

Alfalfa
Alfalfa is a natural source of chlorophyll for fresh breath and provides fiber and carbohydrates.

Chelated Minerals
Minerals typically need to attach to a protein in the dog's digestive tract to be assimilated. Chelated minerals have a protein already attached so the body utilizes them more efficiently.

Tomato Pomace
Tomato pomace is a natural source of lycopene, a powerful free radical fighter to help fight the effects of aging.

Poultry Fat
Poultry fat helps provide the energy your dog needs in a highly digestible form. Combined with sunflower oil it produces an ideal fatty acid profile that's high in linoleic acid for guaranteed supple skin and shiny coat.

Natural Choice Ultra Performance

Palatability
Many talk about it, Natural Choice Ultra Puppy has it. The best taste ever. Up to 90% of dogs tested preferred Natural Choice Ultra Puppy. That means your dog will love it and you'll have the satisfaction of knowing your dog will eat enough to meet its nutritional needs.

Skin & Coat
Another indicator of your puppy's health is its skin and coat. You'll love how your dog's coat glistens. Healthy, supple skin and thick, glossy hair are guaranteed with Natural Choice Ultra Puppy. And Natural Choice is the only brand that's approved to guarantee it.

Antioxidant Protection
Free radicals are very unstable molecules that steal electrons from other molecules in a process called oxidation. The unique antioxidant system in Natural Choice Ultra Puppy combines tocotrienols, tocopherols, vitamin C, beta carotene, lutein, taurine and selenium to fight free radicals and keep your dog's immune system whole and healthy.

Stool Volume & Quality
Firm, compact stools are a sign of good health and a way to measure how well your dog's food is working. Small stools mean your dog is absorbing more nutrition. Natural Choice Ultra Puppy provides a small, consistently firm stool, up to 52% less than other leading brands. That means less cleanup for you, a cleaner, healthier environment, and more nutrition for your dog.

Clean Teeth, Fresh Breath
The natural scrubbing action of Natural Choice Ultra Puppy along with cranberry and chlorophyll help keep your dog's teeth clean and fights doggy breath.
