Setup, Compatibility & Care
When introducing Calibra Life Fresh Beef Starter to your puppy, it is recommended to transition over a period of 5-7 days by gradually mixing increasing amounts of the new food with the previous diet. Always provide access to fresh, clean drinking water at all times. Store the 12kg bag in a cool, dry place, ensuring the packaging is sealed tightly after each use to maintain the integrity of the vitamins and the freshness of the salmon oil. Keep the bag away from direct sunlight to prevent nutrient degradation.
