Product description
Premium high protein speciality food for medium breed dogs aged 7-12 months, provides wide range of health benefits such as weight control, strong bones & joints
Healthy and in shape thanks to the right nutrient profile: dogs have been carnivores for 30,000 generations. Therefore, it is important to provide a suitable food that meets their natural nutritional needs. Virbac Veterinary HPM Dog, unlike most foods available on the market, is composed of a very high level of protein (36%) and a particularly low level of carbohydrates (22.5%). 91% of the high-quality proteins are of animal origin. They come from pork and chicken that have been declared suitable for human consumption and provide your dog's organism with a valuable amino acid profileVirbac Veterinary HPM Dog Junior Medium has been specially developed for medium-sized breed dogs aged 7 to 12 months. After the intensive growth phase in the first six months of life, the energy requirements of young, medium-sized dogs decrease. This must be taken into account with an appropriate diet to prevent overweight and joint and bone diseases. The recipe of the food counteracts these special risks. In addition, a variety of functional ingredients provide a wide range of further health benefits: They support strong muscles, limit the storage of body fat and can have a positive effect on skin and coat, balanced digestion and other body functions.
With Veterinary HPM you get an innovative special food from Laboratoires Virbac, a French company specialised in animal health since 1968. The unique product range ensures species-appropriate nutrition for your medium-sized dog in the second growth phase and lays the foundation for a healthy and active life.
