Puppy Small And Toy Dry Dog Food for Small & Toy Breeds 1.5 Kg
Description:
Your small-breed puppy will grow up to 20 times their birth weight in their first year. Give them all the nutrients they need for healthy growth with VETERINARY HPM® Puppy Small & Toy* food.
This complete and balanced dry puppy food supports the growth of small and toy breed dogs aged up to 10 months old. The tasty recipe is expertly tailored to meet the unique nutritional needs of our smallest canine companions.
• Rapid and intense growth VETERINARY HPM® Puppy Small & Toy provides all the nutrients your puppy needs for fast, healthy growth. The formulation has a high energy density and contains a high amount of quality protein as well as the right balance of essential minerals like calcium and phosphorus.
• Immune support Beta-glucans are an insoluble fibre extracted from yeast that helps to support your puppy's immune system development. It can also help to improve the immune response after vaccinations, boosting your puppy’s defences against disease. [1]
• Digestive tolerance Prebiotics and probiotics support the growth of beneficial digestive flora in the gut. VETERINARY HPM® Puppy Small & Toy also includes psyllium fibre and bentonite to regulate digestive transit and ensure normal stool odour and consistency.
• Oral and dental health Set your puppy up for a lifetime of good oral and dental health. Ascophyllum nodosum seaweed helps to limit plaque and tartar formation and reduce bad breath in puppies.
• Brain development The first months are critical for your puppy’s ability to learn new skills, socialise, and respond to training. DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) from fish oil supports healthy brain development and cognitive function during this vital stage.
VETERINARY HPM® Puppy Small & Toy is a suitable food for puppies up to 10 months old, whose adult weight would be less than 10kg. It’s also ideal for pregnant and lactating dogs under 10kg, meeting the nutritional needs of both mother and puppy.
Benefits
VETERINARY HPM® Puppy Small & Toy contains an optimal balance of energy, protein and essential minerals to help growing puppies thrive. It also features a range of functional ingredients to support healthy immune, digestive and brain development during the rapid growth stage.
