Pro Plan Veterinary Diets NF Renal Dry Dog Food - 12kg

PURINA VETERINARY DIETS NF is a complete veterinary diet for dogs with chronic kidney disease. PVD NF contains restricted amounts of phosphorus as this mineral can build up in kidney patients and has been shown to contribute to progression of the disease. It also contains limited amounts of high quality protein to help reduce the build-up of toxins which make  patients feel unwell, while helping to maintain muscle mass. Omega-3 fatty acids also help maximize the natural anti-inflammatory processes and  reduce blood pressure inside the kidney.

Note that PVD NF is not suitable for dogs that require a high protein/phosphorus diet diet such as pregnant bitches or growing puppies.

The recommended period of use is initially up to 6 months but lifetime use in case of irreversible disturbance of uric acid metabolism for reduction of urate stones formation. It is recommended that a veterinarian's opinion be sought before use or before extending the period of use. For dogs over 70kg: for each additional 5kg of body weight, feed an additional 25g of dry pet food. When feeding dry and wet, for each addition of 100g Canine NF wet can, reduce by 35g dry kibble. Water should be available at all times.
