Practical information:
The first bag of ESSENTIALS marks the start of a dietary lifestyle change. Some dogs can switch immediately – others need 4–7 days.

The most important thing is to adjust the portion size. Overfeeding can lead to soft stools, so spend the first 2–3 weeks finding the right amount. Firm stools and a full dog are signs of balance.

TIP: Start by giving 10% less than usual and adjust from there. You are always welcome to contact us for guidance.

Storage:
Store dry, cool (5–18°C), out of direct sunlight and in an airtight container – then the last meal will taste just as good as the first.
