The basis of a long dog life is a species-appropriate, balanced nutrition. Adult dogs tend to put on weight easily; reduced activity, a genetic predisposition or unsuitable dog foods may be responsible for this. Overweight dogs face a higher risk of serious health problems, such as musculoskeletal problems, and have a shortened life expectancy compared to dogs with a healthy weight. To ensure your large breed adult dog maintains a healthy weight, you should react to the first signs of weight gain by taking preventative steps, such as more exercise and an adjusted diet with a low fat and calorie content. Concept for Life Large Light provides both overweight dogs and dogs with a tendency to put on weight with a balanced, calorie-reduced diet for optimal all-round care: the nutritional composition has been formulated to meet your dog’s specific requirements and to promote all-round health and well-being. As well as more exercise, overweight dogs need a nutrition with an adjusted energy content that also prolongs the feeling of satiety. Concept for Life Large Light has a high protein content, which helps to maintain muscles, and a calorie content that is reduced by approximately 15% (in comparison with Concept for Life Large Adult). This delicious kibble also contains an increased content of selected dietary fibre and plant fibre from psyllium and lignocellulose, which can prolong the feeling of satiety and therefore contribute to lower food intake. The special FORMULA X actively supports life-long health and can help to keep your dog in good shape. Concept for Life combines lots of carefully selected fresh meat with functional ingredients to create a balanced mix of premium nutrients. The resulting kibble is easy to digest and well accepted. To help protect your dog’s joints and cartilage, this formula contains the two natural cartilage nutrients glucosamine and chondroitin sulphate. Additionally, vitamin C can promote the formation of collagen which is important for cartilage. The special vitamin-b-complex works in combination with copper, organically-bound zinc, as well as high-quality omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, to help to promote glossy fur and supple skin. Concept for Life Large Light is tailored, premium nutrition based on the individual dietary requirements of overweight, adult large breeds of dog, aged 15 months and over.
