    Indications:

    • Adult dogs, that require a higher energy density
      (i.e. working, hunting and sled dogs, fussy eaters and dogs that are stressed or nervous).

     

     

    Not Recommended For:

    • Cats
    • Puppies
    • Pregnant or lactating bitches. During pregnancy and lactation bitches should be switched to Science Plan™ Puppy Healthy Development™ formula (other than Science Plan™ Puppy Healthy Development™ Large Breed).
    • Dogs that are inactive or otherwise obesity-prone
    • Dogs with hyperlipidaemia

     

    Additional Info:

    • During periods of greater activity, feed a quarter to a third of the Daily Feeding Amount 2-4 hours before the activity starts. Then in the evening (at least one hour after the activity has finished) feed the dog free choice (i.e. ad lib.) for about 30 minutes.
    • During periods when dogs are not working, switch back to Science Plan™ Canine Adult Advanced Fitness™.
    • Sufficient fresh water should always be available, even during periods of work.
    • Science Plan™ Canine Adult Performance™ is very different from the pet foods dogs typically eat, and unless it is slowly introduced there may be a gastrointestinal upset. The percentage of Science Plan™ Canine Adult Performance™ fed daily should be slowly increased over 7 days from 25 % of the total ration to 100 %.
    • Adult dogs should be fed only sufficient food to maintain their optimal body weight.

  • Feeding Guide

    How to adjust feeding amounts to maintain optimal weight.

    These ranges are a starting point only because animals’ needs vary. Adjust the feeding amount to maintain optimal body weight.
    To obtain a realistic estimate of the daily intake of Science PlanTM Canine Adult PerformanceTM required by more active dogs, the amounts in the Daily Feeding amounts table should be multiplied by the following factors:
    1 hour’s light work = 1.1
    1 full day’s light work = 1.4 - 1.5
    1 full day’s hard work = 2 – 4
    Cold weather = 1.25 - 1.75
