Symply Light/Senior Fresh Chicken Dog Food 12kg

Symply Light/Senior Fresh Chicken Dry Dog Food, 12kg

Symply's light and senior chicken recipe, in the 12kg bag. It covers two jobs that turn out to want much the same food: a dog carrying weight it should lose, and an older dog doing less than it used to and putting on condition as a result.

A weight-loss diet only works if it is weighed, and the 12kg bag is the right buy once a dog is settled and you know what you are feeding each day. Symply list this product as Light/Senior for All Dog Breeds.

Performance & Benefits

• Chicken as the named protein, in Symply's light and senior formulation
• Formulated for dogs on a restricted ration rather than being an adult food fed in smaller amounts
• 12kg bag, sensible once a dog is established on the food
• Suits an older dog slowing down as much as a younger one carrying weight
• Chicken is the least likely recipe to be refused by a dog whose portions have just been cut
• Same recipe as the 2kg bag, at the bulk price

Suitable For

• Adult dogs that need to lose condition
• Older dogs doing less exercise than they used to
• Neutered dogs, which commonly need fewer calories than before
• Households already settled on the food and buying in bulk
• Not a growth food — Symply Puppy Fuel is the range formulated for puppies

Feeding

• Symply print the daily amount for your dog's bodyweight on the 12kg bag; on a restricted diet, feed to the weight you want the dog to be, not the weight it is
• Weigh every meal on kitchen scales — a scoop is the commonest reason a diet does not work
• Split it across two meals so the dog is not going twelve hours on an empty stomach
• Change over across about a week, mixing an increasing share of the Symply light and senior kibble into the current food
• Count treats and chews against the daily ration; on a weight-loss diet they are usually where it goes wrong
• Fresh drinking water at all times

Composition & Analysis

• Symply's own published composition and analytical constituents for this recipe could not be retrieved at the time of writing, so no figures are reproduced here
• The composition, the analytical constituents and Symply's feeding guide are printed on the bag — read them before you move a dog onto it
• Symply's own name for this product is Light/Senior for All Dog Breeds
• Weigh the dog every fortnight while it is losing; a loss of one to two per cent of bodyweight a week is about right
