TBV Working Dog Chicken & Rice Large Breed 15kg

Large breed dogs have very specific requirements.
 They are especially prone to weight gain and skeletal disorders. Although there is a greater fat percentage in our large breed food, this actually aids a reduced growth rate (so long as owners feed to condition). Dogs will be satisfied with a meal once their energy requirements for the day are met. They may eat more than required if allowed (free fed), which would result in them becoming fat, but if they are restrict fed to attain the right condition, they will remain very healthy and ‘fit but not fat’. Because the fat content in the large breed formulation is higher than the standard adult diets, the dog will meet its energy requirements with less food than on the conventional diet resulting in less protein consumption.
 To maintain a lean body weight and healthy structural frame it is extremely important to provide correct nutrition and feeding rate throughout life (and especially during their growth phase using a Large Breed Puppy Food) as this has been shown to:

1. Help reduce bone and joint problems

2. Help to reduce the incidence of chronic disease

3. Help to increase the lifespan
