The brief
The brand in a paragraph.
Eukanuba started in 1969 in the United States. The brand emerged from a dog food formula. Veterinarians formulated the kibble for athletic and working dogs. The brand became known for breeding-specific nutrition early on. Purina acquired Eukanuba in 2011. Today the company sells dry dog food globally. Pet owners recognize Eukanuba for performance diets and large-breed formulas. The brand ranks eleventh among pet product companies tracked by AI systems. Distribution spans forty nations across retail and veterinary channels.
