FAQs
Do I need a prescription to buy this food?
While it is a veterinary diet, you should always consult your veterinarian to determine if this specific formulation is the right match for your dog's clinical diagnosis.
How long should my dog stay on this diet?
Feeding periods vary. For acute diarrhea, it may be a short-term solution, while chronic pancreatic insufficiency may require long-term management as advised by your vet.
Can I mix this with regular dog treats?
It is best to avoid standard treats while your dog is on this diet, as they may contain ingredients that interfere with the digestive management goals. Ask your vet for diet-appropriate snacks.
Is this suitable for puppies?
This diet is formulated for adult dogs with specific health needs. Please consult your vet if you are considering this for a puppy, as their nutritional requirements are different.
Does this diet help with vomiting?
Because the food is highly digestible, it can help manage vomiting related to digestive sensitivity, but persistent vomiting should always be evaluated by a veterinarian.
Troubleshooting
Dog refuses to eat the new food
Try slightly warming the kibble with a small amount of warm water or consult your vet about mixing in a small amount of recommended wet food.
Increased stool volume or loose stools during transition
This may indicate the transition was too fast. Slow down the ratio change and ensure you are strictly following the recommended feeding amounts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When introducing this diet, it is recommended to transition slowly over 5 to 7 days by mixing it with your dog's current food in increasing ratios. This prevents further digestive stress. Ensure your dog always has access to fresh, clean water, as hydration is critical for pets with gastrointestinal disorders. Store the 2kg bag in a cool, dry place and keep the seal tight to preserve the freshness and integrity of the fats and nutrients. If you notice any worsening of symptoms during the transition, contact your veterinary clinic immediately.
