Virbac Dog Adult Neutered Small & Toy 3 kg

HPM

Dry food for sterilised/neutered or overweight-prone adult small breed dogs (under 10 kg) from 10 months of age.

Sterilised and neutered dogs often have an increased appetite, which makes them more prone to weight gain.

Weight management
The food’s moderate energy density and portion sizes adapted to your dog’s needs help prevent post-neutering or post-sterilisation weight gain. It is low in carbohydrates and high in protein, helping maintain an ideal body weight. The high fibre content promotes satiety, while added L-carnitine supports fat metabolism and helps limit fat accumulation.

Moderate calorie content
The food contains less fat and more fibre, helping reduce energy density and calorie intake.

Tartar control
The dry food contains seaweed (Ascophyllum nodosum), which helps reduce plaque and tartar formation, prevents bad breath, and promotes good oral and dental health.

Urinary tract health
The high animal protein content helps increase water intake and urine volume while maintaining a balanced urine pH, supporting overall urinary health.

Keeps blood sugar levels stable
The food’s low starch content helps maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Supports digestion
The low starch content supports digestive function. Added soluble and insoluble dietary fibres (prebiotics) and Lactobacillus lactic acid bacteria (probiotics) promote nutrient absorption and maintain a healthy gut microbiota. In addition, bentonite protects the intestinal mucosa and helps normalise stool odour and consistency.

Strengthens skin and coat
The food contains a high proportion of animal protein, an important source of sulphur-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 sebum production, resulting in a healthy, shiny coat.
