In cases of acute disease, regeneration of the intestinal villi requires nutritional management to last for at least three weeks. In order to optimise digestive function, the recommended daily intake should be divided into several small meals.
Combination of highly digestible proteins (L.I.P.** proteins), prebiotics (fructo-oligosaccharides & mannan-oligo-saccharides), sugar beet pulp, rice and fish oil to ensure maximum digestive security.
The high energy density responds to the growth energy requirements of puppies while helping reduce the amount of food given per meal, thus decreasing the digestive workload.
Puppies suffering from digestive trouble can be really weak and their appetite decreased and/or fussy. Those kibbles are designed (size, texture and shape) to be easily rehydrated, thus facilitating food intake in those puppies.
Formulated and designed to take into account the nutritional needs of growing puppies
Recommended daily quantities (g/day):

| It is recommended to divide the daily intake into 2 meals |
