The high energy density enables a reduced amount of food to be given per meal, decreases the intestinal workload, compensating for the reduced stomach capacity in puppies and bitches in the last 3rd of gestation.
Combination of highly digestive proteins (LIP* proteins), prebiotics, rice and fish oil to support digestive security.
Association of prebiotics with a patented synergistic antioxidant complex including high contents of Vitamin E, Vitamin C, Taurine & Lutein, to support natural defences of growing dogs.
Chicken and pork meats, chicken liver, rice, cellulose, fish oil, calcium caseinate, yeast hydrolysate (source of Mannan-Oligo-Saccharides), minerals (including chelated trace minerals), taurine, L-carnitine, marigold meal (rich in lutein), vitamins.
COMPOSITION
Nutritional additives: Vitamin D3: 120IU, E1 (Iron): 4mg, E2 (Iodine): 0.17mg, E4 (Copper): 1.4mg, E5 (Manganese): 1.3mg, E6 (Zinc): 13mg. Technological additives: Pentasodium triphosphate: 1.6g.
Calculating a specific ration for the breeding bitch: A pregnant bitch will gain 10% of body weight per week from the end of the 5th week. Her needs will increase 10% per week of further gestation. The daily ration recommendations for Starter products increases by 10% at week 6, 20% at week 7 and 30% at week 8. Lactation also requires high-level nutritional support. Our recommendation is to feed ad libitum: no rationing is necessary. Note that the bitch should not gain more than 25% (large and giant dogs) to 30% (small and medium dogs) of her normal body weight at parturition.
