Hill's Science Plan Canine Adult Large Breed Light Chicken

Hill's Science Plan Canine Adult Large Breed Light Chicken is a specially formulated food for adult large breed dogs who are neutered, less active, or prone to gaining weight.

How it works

If your dog puts on weight easily, or isn't especially active, it's important to find a diet solution that helps them maintain a healthy weight. This food is designed with added L-carnitine, which helps your dog to retain muscle mass while burning fat, helping them to stay lean and fit. A high fibre content also helps to keep your dog feeling full between meals.

Alongside its weight loss benefits, the food contains glucosamine hydrochloride and chondroitin sulphate to maintain your dog's bones and joints. These substances form the building blocks of joint cartilage, providing support to your dog's joints and helping them stay supple and mobile as they age.

Key benefits

• provides optimum nutrition for neutered, inactive, or obesity-prone dogs
• addition of L-carnitine helps maintain muscle mass and burn fat
• glucosamine hydrochloride and chondroitin sulphate provide support for strong bones and supple joints
• high fibre content promotes a feeling of fullness

When to use it

Large breed dogs often tend to be less active than their smaller counterparts, meaning it can be difficult to keep your pet at their ideal weight. If you suspect that your dog may be becoming overweight, it's a good idea to take him or her to the vet, who will check their weight and offer you advice accordingly.

The best way to help your dog lose weight is through diet, and a good quality food designed especially for larger breeds will provide your dog with all the nutrients they need. If your pet is used to treats, feeding them a couple of kibbles from their daily meal allowance is an easy and guilt free way to reward them. Alongside a suitable diet, encouraging your pet to exercise will help them reach and maintain their ideal weight and stay happy and healthy.
