• Formula «Sensitive», formulated Wheat Gluten-Free: During the first few months of life puppies have very sensitive digestive systems. Regardless of age, a feature of small breeds is that they are highly sensitive and genetically pre-disposed towards allergies to food components. A result of this is skin dermatitis (irritable skin) – an allergic disease from which small animals suffer. In order to protect your pet from the earliest age, Kennels` Favourite® Starter is based on fish protein (herring), which is biologically valuable assimilates better than animal proteins. The advantage of fish protein is that it contains little connective tissue, mainly collagen which easily transforms into dissolved form, i.e. gelatine (gluten). Thanks to this fish protein breaks down easily, ensuring a fuller assimilation of nutrients. The combination of fish protein with plant proteins (rice, maize, barley and beet pulp) and salmon oil prevents undesirable reactions to foods.
  
• Locomotor System Agents (Salmon Oil, MSM (methylsulfonylmethane), Chondroitin and Glucosamin): Have a positive effect on the joints and promote cartilage repair. Increase the supply of water to the cartilage, thus strengthening the lubricating properties of joints. Participate in anti-inflammatory processes and thus reduce joint pain. Lend the cartilage flexibility, elasticity and resilience. Block cartilage decay and destruction.

Taurine plays a major role in the workings of the heart muscle. Its addition to the feed helps to protect the animal from heart disease.

• Natural Antioxidant Mixture: Reduces the formation of free radicals, which play a role in the development and progression of cancer and kidney failure. Reverses the age-related decline of tissue structures.
  
• Odour Control: Yucca schidigera extract, which contains so-called natural saponins, reduces salt peter formation (ammonia, urea, nitrites and nitrates), and decreases the extraction of harmful gases and unpleasant odour of feces and urine. Furthermore, improves due to Yucca schidigera extract the nutritient intake by which the intestinal flora is positively influenced.

Feeding advice for puppies

Directions for use: Moisten the kibbles with a bit lukewarm water, wait until they become soft and feed the puppy right away. Make sure that you always provide plenty of fresh and available drinking water for your puppy. Regularly clean food and water bowls.
Feeding guidelines: Because each puppy has different requirements, the recommended daily quantities on the packaging should only be used as a guide. Feeding quantities should be adjusted to suit your puppy’s individual daily nutritional requirements. The puppy should preferably be fed every day at the same time and at the same place. From the age of 2 (two) weeks, while your puppy is still being fed by the mother dog, it is recommended to spread the daily amount of feed evenly into 4-5 (four to five) meals throughout the day and should be offered to the puppy before accessing mother’s milk. After 4 (four) weeks of age, it is better to divide the amount of feed into 3-4 (three to four) portions throughout the day. From this time on, it is better to feed your puppy in the absence of the mother dog, so he will gradually leave the habit of sucking milk and completely switch to the food intended for him.

Feeding advice for pregnant and nursing bitches

This is a guide only, as an individual dog’s requirements will vary depending on various factors including breed, activity level, metabolism, age and environment. Feeding quantities should be adjusted to suit your individual dog’s requirements. The amount of feed the best to split over 4 meals per day. When feeding for the first time introduce Kennels` Favourite® gradually over a period of 4 to 10 days. Make sure that you always provide plenty of fresh drinking water for your dog.

Storage advice

While dry food will not spoil as rapidly as other types of food, it does not last indefinitely. Always make sure that you use such foods before the expiration date. Keep the food dry and store it inside the bag it came in; we design the bags to resist moisture and airflow. The best way to store a large bag of dog or cat food is to place the original bag inside a clean plastic pail or container with a secure lid. Do not store dry food in humid rooms, as damp conditions will accelerate spoiling. Always roll the top of the bag down tightly and cinch it closed with a clip. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that pet owners keep dry foods and treats in locations that do not exceed 23°.C (degrees Celsius) or 74°.F (degrees Fahrenheit).
