The diet includes lean chicken breast and chicken liver, which are high-quality, easily digestible protein sources. This helps to provide essential amino acids without overburdening the digestive system.

Chicken breast is low in fat and highly digestible, making it ideal for dogs with sensitive stomachs or those recovering from GI upset.

With only around 2% fat on an as-fed basis, this diet is gentle on the stomach, making it suitable for dogs with GI issues, including pancreatitis.

Healthy fats are provided by sunflower oil and cod liver oil, which offer essential fatty acids (like omega-3s) to support gut health and reduce inflammation.

The diet includes white rice and sweet potatoes as primary carbohydrate sources, providing a steady release of energy without causing digestive distress. These ingredients are easy to digest and provide beneficial fiber to support healthy bowel movements.

An optimal omega-6 to omega-3 helps reduce inflammation in the gut and supports overall digestive health.

Cod liver oil or fish oil provide EPA and DHA, which are known for their anti-inflammatory properties.

The diet includes the Bestie Allrounder balancing supplement, which provides essential vitamins and minerals plus extra antioxidants, tailored to support your dog's overall health and digestion.

Sunflower lecithin is included to enhance fat digestion and improve nutrient absorption, making it beneficial for dogs with compromised digestive systems.

With a controlled fibre content of 0.85% (as-fed), the diet avoids excess bulk in the stool, which can be irritating for dogs with sensitive GI tracts. The fibre provided is mainly from sweet potatoes, which are soothing and easy on the stomach.

This diet is specifically designed to:

• Provide easily digestible proteins and carbohydratesto soothe sensitive stomachs.
• Support gut health with the right balance of fats and fibre to regulate digestion.
• Reduce inflammation and irritation in the gastrointestinal tract promoting better nutrient absorption and overall digestive health.
