Virbac HPM Adult Dog Sensitive Digest Large & Medium Dog Food | 3 kg

28% of healthy medium and large breed dogs suffer from digestive sensitivity, especially certain breeds (German Shepherds, Labrador Retrievers, but also French Bulldogs, Beagles, etc.). This is due to their anatomy: these dogs have a longer intestine and a longer intestinal transit time than small breed dogs. Veterinary HPM? has created a special formulation with an enriched digestive complex to address the specific needs of these dogs.

HIGH DIGESTIVE SAFETY
The quality of the stool (odour, consistency, volume) is optimised and flatulence is limited thanks to the complementary action of several functional ingredients (lignocellulose, psyllium fibre, sepiolite, Yucca extract, pasteurised Lactobacillus acidophilus, fructooligosaccharides). The adapted protein content (29%) helps to control stool moisture and improves stool consistency in dogs sensitive to high protein levels.

DIGESTIVE SYSTEM SUPPORT
The rigorous selection of ingredients (no peas, rice as the only source of starch and in very small quantities, high quality animal protein) helps to reduce the indigestible part of the formulation and improves the digestibility of nutrients.

IMPROVES STOOL CONSISTENCY
Helps significantly improve stool consistency after just 7 days of feeding (Virbac Proven Efficacy: Publication accepted at JVMS, in 121 sensitive dogs, 2017).

OPTIMAL BODY WEIGHT
Optimized energy balance and adequate food intake help maintain an optimal body weight with an ideal body composition.

OPTIMAL MUSCLE MASS
Adapted protein content helps maintain muscle mass.

JOINT AND MUSCLE SUPPORT
The protein content and supplementation of chondroitin sulfate and chitosan help maintain a strong and healthy musculoskeletal system.

REDUCED ALLERGEN POTENTIAL*
This food does not contain corn, wheat, gluten, soy, egg, beef or fish.

SKIN AND COAT SUPPORT
The high levels of animal protein and the balance of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids contribute to promoting a shiny and healthy coat.
