This complete diet food lowers the pH of the urine causing struvite stones to dissolve. It also contains lower levels of minerals (crystal-forming components) which prevents the formation of new bladder stones or stones.

How to recognise cystitis in dogs

When health issues are present, nutrition can play an important role. Vetality Urinary is specially developed by vets to solve bladder stones in dogs (struvite). The symptoms your dog has when he suffers from cystitis are similar to a bladder infection, think frequent urination (more urges), small bits of urination, pressing on urine, pain when urinating and even blood when urinating. If the grit clogs the urethra, it can even get to the point where your dog cannot urinate. That's an emergency!

Properties

• Helps keep urine pH low (more acidic urine) to dissolve and prevent struvite crystalz
• Provides dilution of urine, reducing the likelihood of crystal formation
• Lower concentration of minerals in the diet reduces the chance of crystal formation
• Low magnesium content: magnesium is a component of struvite
• Contains only hydrolysed animal proteins, suitable in dogs with food intolerances

To be used with

Adult dogs for dissolving struvite stones and preventing struvite formation

Not to be used with

• Pups and pregnant or lactating bitches
• Dogs with urinary tract stones not composed of struvite
