It is specially formulated with a blend of L-Carnitine and optimum protein and fat levels to accomodate for the lower metabolic rate of large breed puppies.

healthy skin and coat, helping to protect your puppy from environmental
challenges. For Larger breed robust dogs such as St Bernard, Newfoundland, Labrador Retreiver. | | | |

Labrador Retrievers, Rottweilers, Leonbergers or St. Bernards. Pro Plan Puppy Large Breed Robust Chicken & Rice dog food with Opti-start was specially developed for the nutritional needs of large breed puppies (full-grown weight of over 25 kg) with a robust physique. Robust dogs generally have the same chest and waist measurement, but have approx. 50% more body fat than athletic dogs. Robust dogs, for example Bernese Mountain Dogs, St. Bernards, Golden Retrievers, Newfoundlands, or Rottweilers use distinctly less energy daily than athletic dogs (up to 57% less!) and generally have a higher strain on joints. - The main source of animal protein is chicken meat
- Contains Colostrum, which is rich in natural anti-bodies to support the digestive and immune systems
- Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids promote the healthy development of brain and sight
- Vitamins E and C improve the fortification of the inner protective shield
- L-Carnitin in combination with an optimal ratio of protein and fat helps to control the storage of fat during the growth of robust puppies
PRO PLAN's OptiStart helps bridge the immunity gap, giving your
puppy the best possible start in life.
Naturally, a puppy builds immunity from antibodies passed
through their mother's milk. Shortly after weaning, however,
this natural protection drops until his own immune systems
mature (at around 5 months). Purina's nutritionists and vets
have called this 'the immunity gap'.
PRO PLAN has formulated OptiStart to give your puppy the extra
protection all through 'the immunity gap'. OptiStart contains
milk protein with natural antibodies that help 'wake-up' his
immune system, enhancing it by as much as 50%*. The antibodies
balance the good and bad bacteria in his gut, thereby helping
to protect his delicate digestive system and helping to
increase his resistance to common puppy upsets such as
diarrhoea.
Now with PRO PLAN OptiStart formulas, you can give your puppy
natural protection with every meal and the ideal start he
needs towards a long, healthy life.
