Why do I need a dog food specially formulated for working & sporting dogs? Why can I just feed more of a standard dog food?
When you compare the daily activity of a working or sporting dog to that of an urban pet dog who is walked once daily, it’s obvious that the energy requirements for working and sporting dogs are much higher. Not just energy but protein requirements are higher too. So the energy density and digestibility of the food needs to be higher than in dog foods designed for pets. If you just feed more of a basic maintenance food, it can lead to overfeeding, poor digestibility, fading work performance and loss of condition. Gelert Country Choice is specially formulated with higher levels of quality protein, easily digestible rice and essential trace elements and minerals to provide optimum levels of nutrition. By following the feeding guidelines (printed on the back of each bag), you can avoid over or under feeding and maintain maximum performance.
