What makes this formula different from the competition?
What makes the ACTIVE CARE chicken and brown rice different is natural bovine cartilage and our patented method of obtaining it. Many dog foods have taken an easy leap onto the healthy joint bandwagon by adding varying amounts of synthetic forms of chondroitin and glucosamine then claiming to promote good joint health. Natural bovine cartilage provides the all-important GAGs in an all natural stable form so there are no chemical side effects. With natural bovine cartilage, ACTIVE CARE was specifically created to maintain good joint health.
Feeding Directions
Your dog's nutritional requirements will vary according to age, breed, environment and activity levels. Feed puppies 2 to 3 times per day, according to weight of dog. Feed adult and senior dogs once per day or divide equal portions and feed twice per day. When switching to ACTIVE CARE Chicken and Brown RiceFormula gradually increase the amount of ACTIVE CARE Chicken & Brown Rice Formula while decreasing the previous food, over a 3 to 5 day period.
