Maintaining a healthy weight in dogs is essential for long-term
everyday health and well-being.

Clinical studies have found that up to 65% of dogs have obesity
or are above their ideal weight.

Excess weight can have adverse effects on health and welfare by increasing the risk of diseases, causing functional impairment, shortening lifespan, and reducing overall quality of life.

Factors that can influence a dog’s body weight include food intake,
activity level, neuter status, gender, metabolism, and genetics.

Increased weight in dogs is a complex issue, but having an appropriately formulated diet can be part of the solution to help dog owners manage a healthy body weight for their dogs.

JOINT CARE

Collagen peptides can improve signs of canine osteoarthritis
and provide an excellent source of building blocks for
cartilage tissue, important for mechanical functionality.

Green Lipped Mussel is a rich source of chondroprotective
nutrients and has been shown to reduce arthritic signs in dogs.

WEIGHT MANAGEMENT

L-Carnitine encourages fat oxidation which can help reduce body fat stores.

This recipe has been formulated to have a high protein content (29%)to support lean muscle mass and a low fat content (9%) to limit fat intake and deposition.

THE POWER OF PEPTIDES

Weight Control

Fish peptides have been demonstrated to highly stimulate the secretion of appetite-suppressive molecules such as the peptide hormones cholecystokinin (CCK) from duodenal I-cells and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) from intestinal cells. Short-term this induces a decrease in food intake by increasing the feeling of satiety, and can lead to a decrease in body weight gain. Therefore, in the long term this may decrease adipose tissue by reducing overall food intake.

Joint health

Collagen is essential for bone health. It provides the protein matrix
(‘scaffolding’) on which calcification (bone mineralisation) can occur. Bone collagen undergoes continual breakdown, repair and renewal, so providing nourishment through dietary collagen or collagen peptides is important to help maintain lifelong, strong, healthy bones.

Notes

• FULLER FOR LONGER – Hydrolysed fish peptides stimulate
  appetite-suppressive hormones which increase the feeling of satiety.
• HEALTHY JOINTS & MOBILITY – Collagen peptides help to support
  cartilage; essential for healthy joints. glossy coat.

  elasticity and overall skin health.
• APPETITE CONTROL – Increased dietary fibre is considered
  a contributing factor to satiety.
• CARTILAGE CARE – Green Lipped Mussel contains
  chondroprotective compounds which are beneficial to joint health.
• REDUCED BODY FAT – L-carnitine encourages fat oxidation, which can help to reduce body fat stores.
