SPD™ Slow Cooked Kangaroo & Pumpkin 354g

Australian Kangaroo protein is a hypoallergenic novel protein that is highly effective in supporting dogs with food sensitivities or allergies and is suitable for elimination diets and food trials. It is a lean, low fat high protein source that supports lean muscle mass and weight control. Kangaroo is rich in iron for normal cell function and oxygen transport, vitamin B to support the nervous system and normal metabolism functions, and zinc to support the immune system. Kangaroo provides a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids including long chain omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA which work together to support heart health. Kangaroo is also a low cross-reactivity protein which means dogs allergic to other meat proteins will be less likely to be allergic to kangaroo.

An excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, particularly DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid). These fatty acids support brain development, promote healthy skin and coat, reduce inflammation, and support heart health.

An insoluble and non-fermentable fibre that passes through the digestive tract unchanged and is not fermented by the microbes in the hind gut and is not therefore an energy or nutrient source. Non-fermentable fibre is important because it acts a bit like a broom and ensures that food moves through the digestive tract in an orderly manner and doesn’t stagnate in any one place for too long.

Flaxseed Oil is high in alpha linolenic Omega 3s, which can assist cardiovascular health, soothe itchy skin, reduce hair loss and support healthy skin repair. Flaxseed Oil also helps with mobility for arthritic dogs, and can aid in blood pressure and kidney function.

Natural source of vitamins and minerals. Parsley shows -inflammatory and antimicrobial properties and may support healthy gums.

Whole Pumpkin contains an excellent source of prebiotic fibre that can assist dogs with gastrointestinal issues. Pumpkin seeds are known for the benefits to the overall urinary health of dogs. Pumpkin is high in vitamins A, C, E, and alphacarotene (a powerful antioxidant). Being high in fibre, pumpkin promotes a ‘feeling of fullness’, even if fewer calories are being consumed. This satiety can help aid weight loss due by helping decrease the animal’s hunger. High fibre can also act as a laxative, keeping the dog’s gastrointestinal tract moving with regularity.

Quinoa is a nutrient-dense ingredient that provides dogs with a range of essential nutrients, including protein, fibre, vitamins, and minerals. It is a gluten-free alternative to traditional grains, making it suitable for dogs with grain sensitivities. The high protein content aids in muscle development and maintenance, while the fibre supports digestive health.

Sunflower Oil contains Omega 6 essential fatty acids that can assist with healthy skin, immune function, reducing inflammation, heart health, providing energy and preserving normal organ function.
