Working & Active Dogs

These dogs work hard and play hard and therefore require higher energy contents from thier food. Just because your dog goes for a walk twice a day, does not make it active and you would be better off sticking to a regular maintenance diet. Dogs which work long days for 5-6 days a week need more nutrients. Active or performance diets are very high in protein and fat to help provide the energy that these dogs need.

These diets are also often used for dogs which have trouble gaining weight or dogs which are convalescing. The higher protein level helps to repair damaged tissue and recovery time can be quicker.

They are also widely used for fussy dogs or picky eaters becasue of the fact they are generally more concentrated. Therefore, youwould feed less of it to get the higher amount of nutrients into the dog. Higher fat and protein levels also increase palatability for those fussy pooches!

So get out there and get the right food for your dog! Keep checking on that ideal body condition and help your pet to live longer! GOOD LUCK!
