Chudleys Lamb Sensitive Hypoallergenic Dog Food with Vegetables, Oats and Rice, 14 kg

Chudleys Lamb Sensitive – 14kg

Lamb Sensitive is Chudleys' hypoallergenic diet, formulated without wheat gluten, soya or egg for dogs that cannot tolerate them. Lamb meal at a minimum 16% is the named protein, with hydrolysed lamb behind it, and whole grain maize, oats at a minimum 4%, barley and rice at a minimum 4% making up the cereal side. At 26% protein and 12% oil it is a richer diet than Classic, not a reduced one.

Chudleys declare a minimum 4% vegetables — alfalfa, peas and carrots — and a minimum 0.35% herbs, namely chamomile, mint, aniseed and comfrey. Yeast is included at 2,000mg/kg as a source of mannan oligosaccharides, and salmon oil and full fat linseed supply omega 3 for skin and coat, which is usually where an intolerance shows first.

Performance & Benefits

• Formulated without wheat gluten, soya or egg — Chudleys' own hypoallergenic specification.
• Lamb meal at a minimum 16%, with hydrolysed lamb as a second lamb source.
• 26% protein and 12% oil, so condition is maintained on a working dog, not just a resting one.
• Minimum 4% vegetables from alfalfa, peas and carrots, and minimum 0.35% herbs.
• Yeast at 2,000mg/kg as a declared source of mannan oligosaccharides.
• Salmon oil and full fat linseed for omega 3, aimed at skin and coat.

Suitable For

• Dogs with a sensitive stomach, or loose stools on a standard cereal diet.
• Dogs that cannot tolerate wheat gluten, soya or egg.
• Working and active adult dogs needing a full 26% protein.
• Dogs whose skin or coat suffers on their current food.
• No use at all to a dog that reacts to lamb — Chudleys Salmon with Rice & Vegetables is the same hypoallergenic specification on a fish protein.

Feeding

• Small dogs, 5–10kg: 110–175g a day.
• Medium dogs, 10–25kg: 175–340g a day.
• Large dogs, 25–45kg: 340–525g a day.
• Very large dogs over 45kg: 525g and upwards.
• Split across two meals and adjust to condition and workload. Fresh water at all times.
• When moving a sensitive dog onto it, take a full week or more over the changeover rather than the usual few days.
