  • Product Description

    Obesity can cause problems for your dog, such as reduced energy and even a shorter lifespan. As with humans, obesity is usually caused by excessive calorie and fat intake, combined with inactivity. Obesity can lead to serious conditions, such as heart disease, arthritis and diabetes.

    Recommended for:

    • Dogs that are overweight (obese)
    • Dogs with diabetes (diabetes mellitus)
    • Dogs with intestinal problems that can be improved by a high fibre content, such as colitis or constipation.

    Not suitable for:

    This diet food is not suitable for:

    • Cats
    • Puppies
    • Pregnant or lactating dogs
    • Dogs that are weakened, thin or dehydrated
    • Dogs with advanced heart, kidney or liver failure.

    Composition:

    The high fibre content ensures increased satiety and a reduced appetite. It minimises fluctuations in blood sugar levels, reducing the amount of daily insulin needed during diabetic treatment. Movement of food through the digestive system is regulated, along with water absorption, stimulating bowel activity.
