Benefits
TAILOR-MADE KIBBLE DESIGNED FOR A MINIATURE JAW
This tailor-made, tiny kibble is adapted to the miniature jaw of an adult Chihuahua. Due to their jaw size, the Chihuahua's teeth are crowded which makes this breed susceptible to dental disease. Designed in the shape of a block, the kibble brushes teeth and promotes oral health.
HIGH PALATABILITY
Chihuahuas are known for their fussy appetites. CHIHUAHUA ADULT satisfies the Chihuahua’s appetite with a combination of natural aromas and flavours, along with a tailor-made kibble size, shape and density.
STOOL & ODOUR REDUCTIONCHIHUAHUA ADULT is a highly digestible formula which supports a beneficial colonic bacterial population, helping to reduce intestinal fermentation which can lead to flatulence and unpleasant stool odour. CHIHUAHUA ADULT supports healthy digestion with highly digestible proteins (LIPs*),prebiotics (FOS**), zeolite, and a combination of fibres.
COAT HEALTH
The skin and coat is a reflection of the dog’s state of health and an appropriate diet is important for maintaining a healthy skin and coat. CHIHUAHUA ADULT helps promote a strong skin barrier and a nutritionally supports a healthy coat with high quality protein (including amino acids - methionine, cysteine, tyrosine, phenylalanine), omega 3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA), omega 6 fatty acids and biotin.
