Vitamins and Minerals
Real Beef Protein
Shiny Coat, Healthy Skin
Easy to Digest, Less Clean-Up
For Adult Dogs 50lbs & Over
Select natural ingredients with added vitamins and minerals deliver 100% complete and balanced nutrition for active adult dogs.  That’s what you get in every bag of MAX® Dog Food.  Formulated with state-of-the-art technology developed through 80+ years of pet food experience, continually kennel tested to maintain high quality standards and backed by our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee, you can trust your best friend’s nutrition and health to MAX®.
 
The Natural Nutrition Difference

Natural ingredients, fortified with the required vitamins and minerals, truly make the difference.  MAX® is naturally preserved – no artificial preservatives like BHA, BHT or ethoxyquin. We do not add artificial colors, flavors or sweeteners.  MAX® 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.       

 
Real Beef Protein

The #1 ingredient in MAX® is beef meal, which is made from real beef with most of the water and fat removed.  Beef meal is a good source of protein and zinc.

 
More Digestible – Less Cleanup
Because the ingredients in MAX® 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.
 
Guaranteed Great Taste
The best food in the world is useless if your dog won’t eat it. That’s why Nutro Products, Inc. works hard on taste. With quality ingredients and our natural FLAVORMAX® system, Nutro Products, Inc. guarantees your dog will love the taste of MAX® or your money back.     
 
Shiny Coat, Less Shedding
Scientifically formulated with a winning combination of Omega-6 linoleic acid, Vitamin E and zinc, MAX® helps promote a rich, full coat and supple skin. Many brands contain less linoleic acid – check their labels and compare to MAX®.  
 
The Economy of Quality Food
MAX® really delivers with quality ingredients, balanced nutrition and guaranteed great taste.  Many owners find that highly digestible MAX® costs only pennies per day more to feed.  Try a bag today.  Your satisfaction is guaranteed.
 
NUTRO™ MAX® Products Add Variety to Your Pet’s Diet
We suggest serving Nutro™ MAX® dry kibble with any of our Nutro™ MAX® canned formulas. For an added treat, try MAX® Bones or Steaks biscuits. And don’t forget Nutro™ MAX® CAT – Dry kibble, canned formulas and treats for the feline members of your family.
