Eukanuba Restricted Calorie - Veterinary Diets - Dog

Obesity

Dogs suffering from obesity can suffer from shortness of breath, and usually seem to have less energy for walking or playing. Obesity can cause other health problems such as diabetes, joint problems, breathing difficulties and high blood pressure. If these problems already exist, they may be aggravated by obesity. It is therefore important that your pet loses weight in a controlled manner. A personalised nutrition plays an important role in this.

Lose weight without loss of nutrients

Eukanuba Restricted Calorie - Veterinary Diets contains few calories and is complete and balanced so that your pet can lose weight and still receive the necessary nutrients. It allows for a gradual reduction of fat reserves and helps maintain muscle mass. Over time your dog should also become more active as a result, further reducing the risk of weight gain.
