Virbac Veterinary HPM Senior Neutered Dog Small & Toy complete food for small breed sterilized older dogs, 7 kg

• For spayed bitches and castrated dogs (tend to gain weight). • For small breed dogs (<10kg), over 10 years old. • For dogs of the smallest breeds (<5kg), over 12 years old. COMPOSITION: Dehydrated pork and poultry proteins, rice (min. 7%), bean hulls, hydrolyzed animal proteins, whole grain peas, biomass, potato starch (min. 4%), animal fats, mineral salts, fish oil, linseed, beet pulp, oligosaccharides, plantain fibers, chitosan, pasteurized Lactobacillus acidophilus. Optimal body weight: An optimized energy balance, selected daily food rate, helps to protect the dog's body from overweight, which may occur with reduced activity or after sterilization or castration. L-carnitine affects the extraction of food energy from lipids, which inhibits the accumulation of fat in fatty layers. Moderate calorie intake: A low amount of fat and a slightly higher amount of fiber reduces the energy factor in food, so the body receives fewer calories. Protection of teeth from plaque: Pentasodium triphosphate prevents the formation of plaque, suppresses the unpleasant smell from the jaws. Low glycemic index: The low amount of starch guarantees a stable blood glucose level. Urinary system: High levels of animal-based protein promote water retention, increase urine output, and help stabilize urine pH to support a healthy urinary system. Support of kidney function: The reduced amount of phosphorus and the ability of chitosan to stimulate chelation processes in the digestive tract help to maintain normal kidney function. Strengthening joints and muscles: Adequate protein intake helps maintain muscle mass. Stronger muscles support joint stability. Chondroitin sulfate and chitosan affect the elasticity and strength of joints. Protection of the immune system: The right amount of protein and vitamin E (a natural antioxidant) helps support and strengthen the immune system. Skin and coat protection: High protein, amino r. amount and omega-6/omega-3 balance, promotes epidermal barrier functions, skin and coat renewal, thus maintaining healthy skin and shiny coat. Excellent gastrointestinal tolerance: The small amount of starch in the food guarantees its good digestibility. It contains fiber (prebiotics) and lactobacteria (probiotics), which regulate the transit of the contents of the digestive tract and guarantee the balance of the intestinal flora.
