FAQs

What makes this food suitable for sensitive digestion?

This food contains the OPTIDIGEST formula with prebiotics, which are scientifically proven to increase beneficial bacteria in the gut. This helps to improve microflora balance and promote healthy digestion and stool quality.

Can I feed this to a small or large breed puppy?

No, this specific formulation is tailored for medium-sized breed puppies. Different breed sizes have varying nutritional requirements for optimal growth and development.

Is lamb truly the #1 ingredient?

Yes, lamb is listed as the primary ingredient in this recipe, providing a high-quality and easily digestible protein source that is often well-tolerated by puppies with sensitivities.

How do I transition my puppy to this new food?

Gradually mix increasing amounts of PURINA PRO PLAN Sensitive Digest with your puppy's old food over a period of 7 to 10 days. This slow transition helps prevent digestive upset.

Can I feed this to my gestating or lactating dog?

Yes, this food is explicitly stated to be suitable for gestating (pregnant) or lactating (nursing) bitches, providing them with the necessary nutrients during these demanding periods.

How should I store the food to keep it fresh?

For optimal freshness, store the food in a cool, dry place, ideally in an airtight container. Ensure the bag is sealed tightly after each use and keep it away from direct sunlight.

Does this food contain any artificial colors or preservatives?

Info needed: The product description does not specify the absence or presence of artificial colors or preservatives. Please check the product packaging for a full ingredient list.

Troubleshooting

Puppy still has loose stools or digestive upset.

Ensure you've completed a full 7-10 day transition period. Check that you're not overfeeding. If symptoms persist or worsen, consult your veterinarian as there might be an underlying medical condition.

Puppy refuses to eat the new food.

Try mixing a small amount of the new food with their previous food if you haven't started a gradual transition. Ensure the food is fresh and not stale. If appetite loss continues for more than 24 hours, contact your vet.

Puppy is experiencing gas or bloating.

This can sometimes occur during a food transition or if eating too quickly. Ensure a slow transition. Consider using a slow-feeder bowl if your puppy eats too fast. If symptoms are severe or persist, seek veterinary advice.

Puppy seems to be gaining or losing weight unexpectedly.

Review the feeding guide carefully and adjust portions based on your puppy's current weight, age, and activity level. Consistent weight changes warrant a consultation with your veterinarian to rule out any health issues.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Introducing the Food

When introducing PURINA PRO PLAN Sensitive Digest, a gradual transition is key to avoid upsetting your puppy's stomach further. Over a period of 7-10 days:

  2. Day 4-6: Mix 50% new food with 50% old food.
  3. Day 7-9: Mix 75% new food with 25% old food.
  4. Day 10: Feed 100% PURINA PRO PLAN Sensitive Digest.

Always ensure fresh, clean water is available at all times. Refer to the feeding guide on the packaging for specific daily portion recommendations based on your puppy's age, weight, and activity level. These guides are general, and you may need to adjust based on individual needs.
