Essential Contour Dog Food (Heritige Kitchen)

ESSENTIAL CONTOUR is our complete meal, specifically formulated for:

 • Dogs that are overweight or have a reoccurring tendency to be overweight

 • Neutered dogs, as these interventions have an effect on dietary requirements. 

Our ingredients are of the highest quality; a quality you’ll learn to expect from ESSENTIALS. The meal follows our BOF principle and is grain-free.

WORDS OF ADVICE

When a dog is neutered its mental focus and hormone balance changes. This affects the dog’s nutritional needs. CONTOUR will give your dog a natural fuller feeling; reducing overeating which leads to obesity. Overweight dogs will lose weight on CONTOUR, assuming the owner follows our recommended serving quantities. Once the ideal weight is reached, continue serving at a slightly increased portion size.

Behavioural Optimizing Foods (BOF) is the principle honouring the many advantages of keeping the blood sugar levels stable throughout the day. At ESSENTIAL FOODS we have achieved just that with our life-changing and award winning foods. BOF ensures the stability of your dog’s sugar levels. Our high fresh meat content and the low preparation temperature means your dog gets exceptional nutritional values vs. mass-branded pet foods. The results with BOF are breathtaking. Serving ESSENTIALS positively will affect the mental balance of your dog. Some report seeing a dramatic transformation in the behaviour, others note a smaller change, however improvement is always recorded.

 IS THIS YOUR FIRST BAG OF ESSENTIALS? 

With the first bag of ESSENTIALS comes a nutritional lifestyle change. Gradually phase in ESSENTIALS over 4-7 days, or make the change from one day to the next which works equally well. The most important point is to adjust daily portions to suit your pet. Overfeeding will result in softer stools. We therefore advise that you spend the first 2-3 weeks identifying the correct portion size. When your pet’s stools are solid, and your pet feels satisfied, you have found the correct portion size. All you have to do now is enjoy all the benefits of ESSENTIALS. 

Start by feeding your pet 10% less than usual and adjusting from there.

We normally offer reward points with every bag but to keep our prices as low as possible we do not offer them with this product but we do offer a multi-bag discount.
