| Tailored for Large Breed Growth | Large breed puppies require a slower, controlled growth rate to support healthy bone and joint development.

| Joint Support with ProAgil® | Contains hydrolysed gelatine (collagen) (2.5%) , which supports the formation of articular cartilage and helps maintain healthy joint function—essential for large and giant breeds during their growth phase . |
| Immune System Support (ProVital) | Strengthens your dog's natural defences with beta-glucans from natural yeast cell walls . |
| Gentle on Digestion | Rich in easily digestible rice (18%) and contains carob (2.5%) , which provides natural tannins and vital substances to support healthy digestion. Made without wheat, soya, or milk products to minimize the risk of food intolerances . |
| Digestive & Skin Health | Contains brewer's yeast to support healthy skin and a glossy coat, plus chia seeds and linseed to aid digestion and provide omega-3 fatty acids . |
