Burgess Sensitive Dry Puppy Food Rich in Turkey, 12.5 kg

Product Information

There are no studies that have shown grain-inclusive diets to be detrimental to the health of our domestic dogs and it is rare that a dog would require a grain-free diet for medical reasons. In fact, the cooked grains in commercial diets provide an array of beneficial nutrients to the diet including vitamins, minerals, and fibre.

The next two ingredients are turkey meal, which is effectively a concentrated source of meat protein, and salmon. Other ingredients include yucca and prebiotics. Yucca helps eliminate strong odours in faeces while prebiotics help promote good gut and immune system health. Dogs also need a little bit of fibre in their diet to help maintain a healthy gut. Pea fibre and wholegrain cereals are examples of fibre you may find in your dog’s food. As well as fibre, small quantities of fish oil is great for their skin and coat condition. Your dog should get everything they need from their food – and a high-quality, complete food will provide this. Changing to a senior dog diet is something that has to be done gradually, to avoid upset tummies or digestive issues in older dogs. You should plan to do this over a week or two, by gradually introducing more of the new food and reducing the old food. What’s the best dog food for senior dogs and what are the benefits? When considering whether to choose wet food, dry food, or both for your dog with a sensitive stomach, remember it can be as individual as whether your dog prefers belly rubs or ear scratches.

Why you might need easy to digest dog food  for your canine companion

Composition: Rice, Lamb Meal (28.5%), Dried Beet Pulp (7.5%), Poultry Fat, Minerals, Poultry Gravy, Fish Oil (1%), Dried Alfalfa (1%), Chicory Root Extract (as a source of fruto-oligosaccharides (prebiotic FOS 0.1%), Yucca Schidigera (0.024%). Also, Burgess Sensitive opts for rice over sweet potatoes, which could trigger digestive irritations in some sensitive puppies. On the other hand, wet food is more palatable and appealing than dry food, but it is messy, and it won’t keep long once opened. For puppies, it may also be worth considering the texture of the food. A very young puppy that does not have all its adult teeth may struggle to chew hard kibble, in which case wet food can be the best solution. Got a question about Senior Dog Food?

Feeding a raw food diet to a dog with a sensitive stomach can be a bit of a mixed bag. On the one hand, raw diets often exclude fillers and additives that might irritate a sensitive stomach, which can be a good thing. You might spot a thin layer of fat or oil sitting on top of the product – this certainly shouldn’t alarm you – neither should the sweet potato smell was quite noticeable(by myself and the dog) Artificial ingredients are more likely to cause allergic or sensitive reactions than natural ingredients, and the vitamins and minerals in natural ingredients tend to be easier to absorb. Therefore, try to avoid foods that contain too many synthetic ingredients and look for those with natural ingredients. Natural dog foods can cost more, but they do offer greater benefits to your puppy. When Should You Feed Your Puppy?
