Mini Sterilized 1 Kg Royal Canin is a complete food designed specifically for sterilized small breed dogs, which must maintain an ideal weight and optimal health. Thanks to its balanced formula, it helps support the changed metabolism after sterilization, preventing unwanted weight gain.
This formula is made with high quality ingredients to ensure a balanced nutritional intake, contributing to the well-being of the urinary system and the health of the dog's skin and coat. The taste is designed to be particularly palatable, facilitating acceptance even in the most finicky animals.
Mini Sterilized helps maintain lean muscle mass and contains a calorie level adapted to support a more sedentary lifestyle, typical of spayed or neutered dogs, thus avoiding the risk of obesity and related problems.
Therapeutic Indications
Mini Sterilized is indicated for the nutritional support of small breed spayed or neutered dogs, which have a slower metabolism and tend to gain weight if not managed adequately with a specific diet. It is particularly suitable for preventing obesity and maintaining a healthy weight, ideal for dogs with reduced or moderate physical activity. The food also supports the health of the urinary tract, a critical area for neutered dogs, helping to maintain a healthy urinary environment and reducing the risk of stones or infections. Furthermore, it promotes healthy skin and coat thanks to specific nutrients such as essential fatty acids and vitamins, helping to maintain a healthy and shiny appearance. The food is formulated to provide an optimal balance of proteins, fats and carbohydrates to ensure sufficient energy without caloric excesses, and supports muscle mass, which is fundamental in dogs that tend to lose tone following sterilization. This product is suitable for long-term daily use, providing all the nutrients necessary for a healthy and active life, specifically adapted to the needs of sterilized small breed dogs.
Composition
Mini Sterilized contains a balanced composition of nutrients to meet the specific needs of small sterilized dogs. The main components include high-quality proteins to support lean muscle mass, selected carbohydrates for optimal digestion and a balanced energy supply. The ingredients include cereals such as rice and corn, easily digestible energy sources, along with fibers that promote digestive health and the balance of intestinal flora. There are also sources of essential fatty acids, such as omega-3 and omega-6, which are important for maintaining healthy skin and a shiny coat. The formula also contains natural antioxidants that help protect cells from oxidative stress, supporting the immune system. Balanced mineral elements contribute to the health of the urinary tract, maintaining an ideal urinary pH to reduce the risk of developing stones. The composition has been carefully formulated to ensure a reduced but balanced energy intake, in line with the metabolic needs of neutered dogs, helping to prevent excess weight without sacrificing vitality and general well-being.
Contraindications
Mini Sterilized is not recommended for growing puppies, pregnant or nursing females, nor for dogs with specific medical conditions that require a diet other than the standard one. It is important to avoid administering this product to dogs that require a high-energy diet or with particular nutritional deficiencies. In case of confirmed food allergies or intolerances, it is advisable to consult a veterinarian before introducing this food. Furthermore, it is not suitable for medium or large dogs, as the doses and composition would not be adequate for their physiological needs. It is always advisable to check the compatibility of the food with the health conditions of your animal and follow the instructions of the veterinarian, in particular for animals with specific pathologies or those taking medications. Do not use as a substitute for medical therapies without professional supervision.
Safety of the drug for the species
Mini Sterilized was developed taking into account the specific nutritional needs of sterilized small breed dogs, and its formulation is safe for daily use in these subjects. It does not contain ingredients that are harmful or potentially toxic to dogs, and the quality of the raw materials is guaranteed by strict controls to ensure maximum food safety. However, it is important to administer the food following the recommended doses to avoid problems related to excess calories or nutritional deficiencies. Although the food is designed to maintain well-being and prevent common post-sterilization pathologies, it is essential to observe the animal for any adverse reactions or changes in eating behavior, and consult your veterinarian in case of doubts or abnormal symptoms. Prolonged use must be monitored to ensure that the dog maintains ideal weight and that no digestive or metabolic disorders occur. In cases of animals with special needs or compromised health conditions, the product must be administered only under veterinary supervision.
Precautions
When introducing Mini Sterilized into your dog's diet, it is important to make a gradual transition to avoid gastrointestinal upset. It is advisable to progressively mix the new food with the previous one over a period of at least a week. Like all foods, it must be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct light to preserve its quality and freshness. Keep the product out of reach of children and non-recipient animals. In case of concomitant administration with other supplements or drugs, consult your veterinarian to avoid possible interactions or overdoses. Avoid leaving food exposed to humidity or contamination which could alter its composition or lead to the proliferation of mould. In case of any allergic reaction or intolerance, discontinue use and contact your veterinarian. It is also important to avoid exaggerating with quantities, respecting the animal's daily energy needs to prevent obesity and related metabolic problems.
Method of administration
Mini Sterilized is a dry food to be administered as a complete diet. The recommended doses vary based on the dog's body weight and level of physical activity, therefore it is important to carefully follow the instructions on the label or provided by your veterinarian. It can be administered directly into the bowl, ensuring that fresh, clean water is always available. If the dog is reluctant to accept the new food, you can mix it with a small amount of wet food or add a little warm water to increase its palatability. It is essential to maintain a constant diet and not exceed portions to avoid the accumulation of unwanted weight. The frequency of administration can be divided into two or more daily meals to facilitate digestion and keep the metabolism stable. For optimal use, it is recommended to combine nutrition with regular physical activity, compatible with the animal's possibilities and state of health.
Treatment program
Mini Sterilized can be used as an integral part of a long-term dietary plan for weight and health management of small sterilized dogs. It is advisable to begin administration shortly after spaying or neutering to help prevent weight gain and metabolic disorders associated with this physiological change. The product can be maintained as the main food throughout the dog's life, with regular veterinary checks to monitor physical condition, weight and general health. In case of weight gain, it may be necessary to adjust the doses or supplement with greater physical activity. It is important to adapt your diet to changes in activities and specific needs, such as during aging or changes in health. For particular situations, such as metabolic or digestive pathologies, always consult your veterinarian to evaluate the possibility of dietary or supplementary changes. Continuity and consistency in nutrition are essential to obtain and maintain long-lasting and positive results on the dog's health.
Target species
Mini Sterilized is intended exclusively for small breed dogs, especially those that have been spayed or neutered. This specific nutritional design makes the product ideal for subjects weighing generally less than 10 kg, who need control of calorie intake and nutrients that support a slower metabolism typical after sterilization. It is not suitable for puppies, medium or large breed dogs, or for animals with special nutritional needs that require specific medical diets. Use is reserved for adult dogs in good general health, with the aim of maintaining ideal weight, vitality and health of the urinary system and coat. The formulation was developed considering the physiological, metabolic and behavioral characteristics of the small dog species in the post-sterilization context.
