Virbac Puppy Small & Toy 3 kg

HPM

Dry food for small breed puppies (adult weight under 10 kg) up to 10 months of age. The food is also suitable for pregnant and nursing small breed females.

Small breed puppies require a high amount of energy, protein, and minerals to support their rapid growth. Their diet must also take into account their sensitive digestion and developing immune system.

Designed to support the puppy’s fast growth (up to approximately 10 months of age).

This easily digestible food provides everything a growing puppy needs: plenty of energy and protein, as well as the right balance of calcium and phosphorus.

High energy
The food contains a high fat content to provide puppies with enough energy for growth.

Supports the immune system
Added beta-glucan (an extract made from brewer’s yeast cell walls) helps the development of the immune system and improves the puppy’s vaccine response and resistance.

Supports digestion
Fructo-oligosaccharides (prebiotics) and Lactobacillus (postbiotics) promote the growth of beneficial intestinal bacteria and help maintain a balanced gut microbiota. Psyllium fiber supports normal bowel function and helps form firm stools. Bentonite protects the intestinal mucosa and helps maintain normal stool odor and consistency.

Tartar control
Ascophyllum nodosum seaweed has been added to reduce tartar formation and support oral and dental health from an early age.

Supports brain development
DHA from fish oil promotes healthy brain development and supports cognitive function in growing puppies.

Strengthens skin and coat
The food contains a high amount of animal protein, an important source of sulfur-containing amino acids, as well as essential omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. These nutrients support the formation of the skin’s protective barrier and promote healthy coat growth.

Free from common allergens
The food does not contain corn, wheat, gluten, soy, egg, beef, or fish.
