Product Information

Full details

This guide is for adult dog owners seeking a specialized, limited-ingredient diet for dogs with sensitivities or those undergoing elimination trials. The key benefit is its single-source salmon protein and digestible sweet potato, which aids in managing dietary intolerances. A potential caveat is that while it's designed for sensitive dogs, individual results can vary, and veterinary consultation is always recommended. Eukanuba Special Care Mono-Protein Adult with Salmon is a complete and balanced dry food formulated with salmon as the sole animal protein source, ideal for dogs needing to avoid common allergens. It features sweet potato for digestibility, omega fatty acids for skin and coat health, and prebiotics for digestive support, all without artificial colors, flavors, or GMOs.

FAQs

Is this food suitable for puppies?

No, Eukanuba Special Care Mono-Protein Adult with Salmon is formulated for adult dogs. Puppies have different nutritional requirements and should be fed a food specifically designed for their life stage.

How long should I feed this food for an elimination diet?

Elimination diets are typically conducted under veterinary supervision for a minimum of 6-8 weeks. Always follow your veterinarian's specific recommendations for duration and reintroduction challenges.

Can I mix this food with other Eukanuba products?

To maintain the integrity of the mono-protein diet for sensitive dogs, it is generally advised not to mix it with other foods or treats unless specifically approved by your veterinarian.

What are the primary benefits of salmon as a protein source?

Salmon is a high-quality, easily digestible protein source rich in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which are beneficial for skin and coat health. It's also less likely to trigger common allergic reactions compared to other proteins.

How does this food support digestive health?

The food contains prebiotics, which are non-digestible fibers that help to nourish beneficial bacteria in the gut, promoting a healthy digestive system and improving stool quality.

Does this food contain any grains?

This specific formula uses sweet potato as its carbohydrate source and is gluten-free, making it suitable for dogs sensitive to grains.

How should I store the economy pack (2 x 12kg)?

Store unopened bags in a cool, dry place. Once a bag is opened, seal it tightly or transfer the food to an airtight container to maintain freshness and prevent spoilage.

Troubleshooting

Dog is reluctant to eat the new food.

Ensure a slow transition from the previous food. Try warming the food slightly or adding a small amount of warm water to enhance aroma. Confirm there are no other underlying health issues with your veterinarian.

Loose stools or digestive upset after switching.

This can occur during the transition phase. Slow down the transition process, extending it to 10-14 days if necessary. If symptoms persist, consult your veterinarian.

Skin irritation or itching continues.

While this food is designed for sensitivities, it may not be the correct solution for all skin issues. Consult your veterinarian to rule out environmental allergies or other non-dietary causes.

Food packaging is damaged upon arrival.

Contact the retailer immediately to arrange for a replacement or refund. Do not feed food from damaged packaging.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Transitioning to New Food:

When introducing Eukanuba Special Care Mono-Protein Adult with Salmon, it's crucial to transition your dog gradually over a period of 7-10 days. Start by mixing a small amount of the new food with their current food, gradually increasing the proportion of the new food while decreasing the old food. This helps prevent digestive upset.

Storage:

Store the food in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Once opened, ensure the bag is sealed tightly to maintain freshness and prevent moisture or air from degrading the food. For the economy pack, consider transferring portions to airtight containers for daily use to preserve the quality of the remaining food.

Compatibility:

This food is formulated for adult dogs of all breeds. It is particularly recommended for dogs with known sensitivities to common protein sources (like chicken or beef) or those undergoing a veterinary-supervised elimination diet. Consult your veterinarian to ensure this food is appropriate for your dog's specific dietary needs and health condition.

Care:

Always ensure fresh, clean water is available for your dog. Follow the feeding guidelines on the packaging, adjusting portions as necessary based on your dog's age, activity level, and body condition. Regular veterinary check-ups are recommended to monitor your dog's health while on any specialized diet.
