Veterinary HPM Senior Dog Large & Medium is a complete diet for non-sterilized large breed dogs (>25 kg) from 6 years of age and medium breed dogs (10-25 kg) from 8 years of age. The Senior Dog Large & Medium kibble by Virbac contains 32% protein, of which 84% is of animal origin. Cellular processes responsible for aging intensify in older dogs, so it is important to protect their key functions. Decreased activity levels predispose them to muscle loss and difficulty with joint mobility. Benefits: Weight control. As activity decreases with age, the energy content of the diet must be controlled to prevent overweight. A high protein and low carbohydrate concentration helps maintain an optimal body condition. L-carnitine supplementation helps limit fat tissue accumulation. Moderate caloric intake. Low fat levels and an increased amount of fiber help reduce the energy content of the diet, making it suitable for mature dogs' requirements. Muscle mass preservation. The high protein level helps maintain muscle mass. Joint and muscle support. The elevated protein level and supplements of chondroitin and chitosan help keep muscles and bones strong. Digestive tolerance. The low starch content helps ensure good digestive tolerance. The choice of prebiotics and probiotics regulates intestinal transit and contributes to a balanced gut flora. VETERINARY HPM™Thanks to its nutritional profile and the careful selection of functional ingredients, VETERINARY HPM™ is more than just a dog food.
