| Grain-Free Formula for Sensitive Digestion | Contains no wheat, barley, rye, or gluten. Instead, high-quality amaranth (14%) serves as a nutrient-rich, gluten-free carbohydrate source, making this recipe ideal for puppies with food intolerances or sensitivities . |
| High Fresh Meat Content | Made with 40% fresh poultry meat of human food-grade quality, which is highly digestible and provides essential nutrients for muscle, organ, tendon, and connective tissue development. The fresher the meat during processing, the better the taste and nutritional value . |

| Sauce Effect for Easy Weaning | Mix 3 parts dry food with 1 part warm water (40–50°C) to create a delicious gravy that stimulates puppies' appetite and facilitates the transition from mother's milk to solid food . Later, the food can be fed dry. |
| ProVital Immune Support | Strengthens your puppy's developing immune system with beta-glucans from natural yeast, supporting natural defences during the critical early weeks . |
| ProAgil Joint Support | Contains hydrolysed gelatine (collagen) (2.5%) , which supports the healthy development of bones, joints, and cartilage in growing puppies . |
| Probiotics for Digestive Health | Contains stabilized probiotic cultures (Bacillus velezensis) to support digestion, promote stool quality, and reduce unpleasant odours . |
