Breed Health Nutrition Dachshund Adult (WET FOOD - Pouches) 12 x 85g

The Breed Health Nutrition Dachshund Adult Wet Food (Pouches) is specially formulated to meet the unique nutritional needs of adult Dachshunds. Here’s a detailed overview of this product:

Key Features:

• Tailored for Dachshunds: This wet food is designed specifically for adult Dachshunds, taking into consideration their unique size, body structure, and health requirements.
• High-Quality Protein: Typically contains animal protein (such as chicken or lamb) as the primary ingredient to support muscle maintenance and overall health.
• Balanced Fat Levels: The food is formulated to provide the right amount of fats to support skin health, energy, and weight management, which is especially important for this breed since Dachshunds can be prone to obesity.
• Nutrient-Rich: Contains a balanced mix of vitamins and minerals to support overall health, including bone health, joint support, and immune function.

Benefits:

• Joint Health: Dachshunds are prone to back and joint issues due to their long bodies and short legs. This food often includes nutrients such as glucosamine and chondroitin to help support joint health.
• Healthy Coat and Skin: Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids (often sourced from fish oil or chicken fat) are included to promote a shiny coat and maintain healthy skin.
• Digestive Support: Prebiotics and fiber are typically included to support healthy digestion, helping to ensure that the food is easily digestible and that your Dachshund’s digestive system functions properly.
• Palatability: The food is designed to be very appetizing for dogs, making it ideal for picky eaters or those who prefer wet food over dry kibble.

Ingredients (Typically):

• Meat or poultry (e.g., chicken or lamb) as the main source of protein.
• Rice or other digestible carbohydrates to provide energy.
• Animal fats (such as chicken fat) for a balanced fat profile.
• Vegetables and fiber sources like peas or carrots, which help with digestion.
• Vitamins and minerals, including essential nutrients like calcium and vitamin E for bone and immune health.
• Natural antioxidants to help maintain overall health.

Feeding Guide:

• Recommended Portions: The number of pouches to feed your Dachshund depends on their weight, age, and activity level. For adult Dachshunds, a general guideline is 1 to 2 pouches per day, typically divided into two meals. However, always refer to the specific product's feeding instructions for more precise recommendations.

Benefits for Dachshunds:

• Weight Control: Dachshunds are known for being prone to weight gain, so the food is often formulated with lower fat and controlled calorie content to help maintain a healthy weight.
• Dental Health: While wet food may not be as effective as dry food in promoting dental health, it can be part of a balanced diet that supports overall health, especially when combined with regular dental care routines.
