Valens Pêcheur dog food - Salmon and Cod

Valens Fisher Salmon and Cod: The Canadian Dog Food with the Highest Omega-3 Content

Valens™ Fisher is a premium dry food formulated for all life stages (puppy, adult, senior). This unique recipe combines wild salmon and Pacific cod in generous quantities, offering an exceptionally high omega-3 content (4.2%), the highest in the Valens range. Optimal support for coat, skin, joints, and cognitive function.

Why is this food exceptional?

Valens Fisher stands out with its very high concentration of marine omega-3s (4.2%), essential fatty acids that your dog's body cannot produce on its own. These animal-derived omega-3s (DHA and EPA) are known for:

• 🧠 Supporting cognitive function and brain health (particularly valuable for senior dogs and developing puppies)
• ✨ Significantly improving coat quality (shine, softness, density)
• 🩹 Soothing sensitive, dry, or irritated skin thanks to their natural anti-inflammatory properties
• 🦴 Supporting joint health and reducing inflammation
• ❤️ Promoting cardiovascular health
• 👁️ Supporting eye health (DHA is a major component of the retina)

Who is Valens Fisher for?

Valens Fisher is suitable for dogs of all sizes and life stages. It is particularly beneficial for:

• Dogs with sensitive skin (skin allergies, itching, dandruff)
• Dogs with dull, dry, or brittle coats
• Dogs with joint problems or predisposed (large breeds, aging)
• Senior dogs needing cognitive and joint support
• Developing puppies (DHA is crucial for brain formation)
• Dogs intolerant to meat proteins (chicken, beef, turkey)
• Overweight dogs or predisposed (moderate fat content at 16%)
• Gourmet dogs who love fish

Integrated Joint Support

A rare feature in dry food: Valens Fisher contains glucosamine and chondroitin, two essential ingredients for joint support. These compounds:

• Help maintain healthy cartilage
• Support mobility and flexibility
• Prevent joint wear and tear associated with age or activity

Combined with anti-inflammatory omega-3s, this provides doubly effective joint support, unprecedented in a simple food.
