The kibble’s shape, size, texture and formula are adapted to the German Shepherd puppy, encouraging him to chew.

As your puppy grows, he will experience big changes and new discoveries. During this key period, the puppy’s immune system develops gradually. GERMAN SHEPHERD PUPPY helps support your puppy’s natural defenses with an exclusive complex of antioxidants including vitamin E.

GERMAN SHEPHERD PUPPY supports this breed’s sensitive digestive system with highly digestible (L.I.P.*) proteins and a selection of specific fibers to limit intestinal fermentation and to help maintain a balanced intestinal flora. *Protein selected for its very high digestibility.

Balanced energy intake and precise mineral content (calcium and phosphorus) contribute to the development of strong bones and healthy joints in German Shepherd puppies. This exclusive diet also helps maintain ideal weight.

100% Complete and Balanced Nutrition

GERMAN SHEPHERD PUPPY supports optimal development of the immune system, bones and joints, skin and coat, and gastrointestinal system, while the customized kibble has an increased surface area to improve digestibility.
