Kibble
The Shih Tzu is a brachycephalic breed, a dog with a typical round head that is broader than it is long. The Shih Tzu formula’s kibbles are designed to be easier for this breed to pick up and encourage chewing.
Bag Size: 1.5kg
Benefits
Exclusive Kibble: Special Brachycephalic Jaw
The Shih Tzu is a good example of the “brachycephalic” jaw type with a very short muzzle. Shih Tzu Puppy kibbles are exclusively designed to make it easier for the Shih Tzu puppy to pick up and encourages him to chew.
Healthy Skin & Coat
The skin and coat reflect the dog’s state of health. An appropriate food is important in maintaining healthy skin and coat. Shih Tzu Puppy helps support the skin’s role as a barrier with an exclusive complex of nutrients and helps maintain skin and coat health (EPA & DHA, vitamin A).
Digestive Health
Digestive health is essential during the puppy’s growth period: the digestive system is not yet fully developed and cannot absorb nutrients in the same way as adult dogs. The Shih Tzu Puppy formula helps support digestive health and helps to maintain a balanced intestinal flora.
Natural Defenses
During the growth period, the puppy’s natural defenses are not yet fully developed. An exclusive complex of antioxidants (vitamins E and C, lutein and taurine) in Shih Tzu Puppy helps support the Shih Tzu puppy’s natural defenses.
