Setup, Compatibility & Care

This diet is strictly for adult small dogs (up to 10kg) and should never be fed to puppies, pregnant females, or nursing mothers due to its specific nutrient profile. To begin, consult your veterinarian to confirm if this is the correct diet for your dog's specific skin condition. When introducing the food, mix it with the previous diet over a period of 5-7 days to prevent digestive upset. Store the bag in a cool, dry place and ensure it is sealed tightly after each use to maintain the freshness of the fatty acids.
