Medium Light Care must be administered as a complete and balanced food, respecting the daily quantities indicated based on the dog's weight and lifestyle. It can be provided dry, directly in the bowl, and combined with a regular feeding routine that promotes weight control.
If the dog is used to dietary changes, it is recommended to gradually introduce the new product into the diet, mixing it with the previous food for a period of at least one week, in order to promote good tolerability and gastrointestinal adaptation.
The product is compatible with administration on an empty stomach or with light meals, without the need for particular supplements, unless otherwise indicated by the veterinarian. For optimal control of weight and physical condition, the dosage should be reviewed periodically taking into account the dog's physical activity and weight changes.
Treatment program
To obtain and maintain the dog's ideal weight, Medium Light Care must be administered continuously as part of a balanced and controlled diet during periods in which the dog's energy needs are reduced or in case of predisposition to weight gain. The treatment program may include a personalized nutrition and weight control plan based on periodic evaluations by the veterinarian.
In cases of proven overweight, more intense periods of calorie restriction may be required followed by long-term maintenance with Medium Light Care to avoid relapses. Regular monitoring of body weight and health is essential to adjust the timing and quantity of the food program.
As part of a complete weight management program, we recommend adequate daily physical exercises that promote the dog's energy consumption and psychophysical well-being. The combination of a specific diet, physical activity and veterinary monitoring is the most effective method for the health and longevity of your four-legged companion.
