Maintaining a healthy weight in dogs is essential for long-term everyday health and well-being.
Clinical studies have found that up to 65% of dogs have obesity or are above their ideal weight.
 
Excess weight can have adverse effects on health and welfare by increasing the risk of diseases, causing functional impairment, shortening lifespan, and reducing overall quality of life.
 
Factors that can influence a dog’s body weight include food intake, activity level, neuter status, gender, metabolism, and genetics.
 
Increased weight in dogs is a complex issue, but having an appropriately formulated diet can be part of the solution to help dog owners manage a healthy body weight for their dogs.
 
Key Features
Fuller for Longer: Hydrolysed fish peptides stimulate appetite-suppressive hormones which increase the feeling of satiety.
Healthy Joints & Mobility: Collagen peptides help to support cartilage; essential for healthy joints.
High Protein, Low Calorie: To support lean muscle mass and a healthy weight.
Appetite Control: Increased dietary fibre is considered a contributing factor to satiety.
Cartilage Care: Green Lipped Mussel contains chondroprotective compounds which are beneficial to joint health.
Reduced Body Fat: L-carnitine encourages fat oxidation, which can help to reduce body fat stores.
Freshtrusion HDP: Freshtrusion HDP is a unique process that involves cooking fresh meat and fish ingredients in the presence of a natural enzyme, which breaks down proteins into small peptides.
Powerful Peptides:
Weight Control: The increased absorption of peptides ensures an ideal supply of amino acid building blocks required for the synthesis of key proteins such as keratin (in hair and epidermis), collagen and elastin (dermis layer) that are essential for skin strength, elasticity and barrier function.
Joint Health: Collagen is essential for bone health. It provides the protein matrix (‘scaffolding’) on which calcification (bone mineralisation) can occur. Bone collagen undergoes continual breakdown, repair and renewal, so providing nourishment through dietary collagen or collagen peptides is important to help maintain lifelong, strong, healthy bones.
Joint Care: Collagen peptides can improve signs of canine osteoarthritis and provide an excellent source of building blocks for cartilage tissue, important for mechanical functionality. Green Lipped Mussel is a rich source of chondroprotective nutrients and has been shown to reduce arthritic signs in dogs.
Weight Management: L-Carnitine encourages fat oxidation which can help reduce body fat stores. This recipe has been formulated to have a high protein content (29%) to support lean muscle mass and a low fat content (9%) to limit fat intake and deposition.

All animals are different, and the guidelines should be adapted to take into account the breed, age, temperament and activity level of the individual animal. When changing foods, please introduce gradually over a period of two weeks. Always ensure that fresh, clean water is available.
