Our award-winning products for sensitive dogs include ocean
white fish, potato and sweet potato as the three main ingredients, all of which
are easily digestible and have low allergenicity. Prebiotics FOS and MOS
further aid digestion, while omega-3 and 6 from krill and linseed help support
the skin and coat condition, as well as the brain and heart. Joint supplements,
glucosamine, MSM and chondroitin promote healthy, supple joints.
The addition of our special ‘superfood’ blend of plant and
fruit extracts, which have excellent antioxidant properties, will provide much
needed extra support to sensitive dogs’ immune systems and overall health.
Nine new natural ingredients that have proven health
benefits including; citrus extract, dried dark fruit and berry extracts (elderberries,
rosehips, blackcurrants, blackberries, blueberries and raspberries), Curcumin
and black pepper combine in the blend.
Each with specific benefits:
Citrus extracts
A complex blend of citrus extracts has been included to help
maintain a healthy microbiome and enhance immune response via their
anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
Curcumin
Curcumin is a compound found in the turmeric spice, which
has anti-inflammatory and antiseptic properties. It can also increase the
amount of antioxidants produced by the body to help protect against free
radicals.
Black pepper
A substance called piperine, which is present in black
pepper, increases the bioavailability of curcumin. It does so by inhibiting the
metabolic breakdown of turmeric compounds in the gut and liver, allowing them
to remain in the body for longer so that they have more time to work.
Dried fruit extracts
A variety of concentrated dried fruit extracts are included
for their antioxidant properties. Diversity is important because antioxidants
in food are not interchangeable, and many differ in both their site of action
and mechanism. The Arden Grange recipes have always included cranberries, but
in our Sensitive range of foods, these are now accompanied by (in descending
order of inclusion): elderberries, rosehips, blackcurrants, blackberries,
blueberries, and raspberries. These healthy fruits are also a very good natural
source of vitamin C which is needed for the growth, development, and repair of
the body’s tissues.
Our sensitive dry foods for dogs are suitable for all breeds and life
stages, especially beneficial for dogs with sensitive skin and digestion. Available in pet stores now.
