Professional Mini Adult Dry Dog Food
Small dogs need more than just a small kibble. They need more energy than large breed dogs, and they have a shorter and more intense growth period. Plus, they typically live longer than large dogs, and have a more finicky appetite. PROFESSIONAL MINI Adult is designed to meet the specific needs of small breed dogs between 9 and 22 lb, from 10 months to 8 years of age.
Benefits
MAINTAINS IDEAL WEIGHT
Excess weight can contribute to a number of health problems in small dogs. MINI Adult™ is formulated with a moderate fat (14%) and energy (3758 kcal/kg) content, along with fat-burning L-carnitine to help promote an optimal weight.
ENHANCED PALATABILITY
Small dogs can be very fussy when it comes to their food. MINI Adult™ is formulated with an exclusive combination of natural flavours and aromas, combined with a specially designed kibble to help satisfy the fussy appetite of the small dog.
COAT CONDITION
A small dog's skin and coat are a reflection of their overall state of health. MINI Adult™ is formulated with anti-inflammatory omega 3s (EPA and DHA), vitamin A, biotin, and highly digestible protein to help support a healthy skin and coat.
DENTAL HEALTH
Kibble is designed specifically for a small dog’s tiny jaw, helping to promote chewing. Calcium chelating sodium tripolyphosphate is included to help promote optimal oral hygiene by limiting tartar formation.
