Large Breed Recipes
How does our Turkey – Large Breed recipe benefit Large Breed Dogs?
If a dog falls between 25kg to 44kg, he or she falls within the Large Breed category. This type of dog experiences a longer growth period reaching adult weight at 15 months. Large Breed dogs usually have slower metabolism and high exercise requirements. Their diets should take into consideration the need for bone and joint health as they can be prone to joint concerns.
The Kibble Size
Our Grain Free Turkey – Large Breed recipe contains larger kibble sizes to both help slow down the speed of eating and promote a positive elongated eating experience. The size and weight of large breed dogs can put more strain on their joints so we’ve added a joint care pack to provide nutrients that help support healthy joints.
The benefits of Turkey in our Large Breed recipe?
Large muscle mass requires extra-large skin to protect the large breed dog’s body. As skin is the largest organ of the body – that’s a lot of skin to maintain! Turkey is a lean protein source rich in essential amino acids. It is also low in fat and a good source of essential nutrients such as riboflavin, potassium and selenium. These components are beneficial in promoting the growth, repair and renewal of cells which can help support muscle mass as well as helping to maintain a healthy skin and coat.
