Support the early feeding needs of small-breed puppies and their mothers with Carniwel Fresh Chicken Kibble Starter Dog Food. This starter formula combines fresh chicken, animal and plant protein sources, marine ingredients and other nutrients in a dry kibble designed for early-life feeding.
The small kibble can be rehydrated with water to create a soft, porridge-like consistency. This makes it easier to introduce solid food as puppies transition from their mother's milk. Follow the manufacturer's feeding instructions and adjust the texture to suit your puppies' stage of weaning.
The recipe includes brown rice, dehydrated chicken protein, fresh chicken, marine fish protein, Antarctic krill, vegetable fibres, marine lipids and yeast extracts. The formula also contains sources of omega fatty acids, EPA and DHA, along with minerals, antioxidants and L-carnitine. These ingredients are part of the product's nutritional approach to supporting the needs of growing puppies and nursing mothers.
Carniwel positions this starter food for small-breed puppies and mother dogs, including lactating mothers. Its nutritional profile includes protein and fat to support the energy and growth requirements associated with these stages. Use the feeding guide for the relevant puppy age or maternal stage rather than applying one portion size to every dog.
