Buffalo meat is known for its creamy, fresh taste and rich color, and is packed with vitamins and minerals. With lower cholesterol and fat content and fewer calories, this tender meat is brimming with health benefits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePoultry\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAt Yourdog, we use duck, chicken, and turkey, which together provide a delicious taste and aroma to the kibble.

Vegetables are not only nutritious but also have other healthy properties. The crude fiber in vegetables is good for the intestines and can contribute to digestion, among other things.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eFruit\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWe add a unique combination of fruits to Yourdog, ensuring dogs receive all essential, natural antioxidants.

These natural ingredients promote the dog's health.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eHerbs\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe healthy herbs that enrich our food come from plants in Europe. The use of herbs, roots, flowers, plants, and algae, among other things, dates back thousands of years. These ingredients support the natural processes in a dog's body, such as digestion. Every ingredient we add to our dog food is carefully selected for its positive properties. Depending on the dog's size, breed, or breed group, certain ingredients are highlighted. Breed-specific issues can be alleviated by using herbs, roots, flowers, and plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePicardy Shepherd-specific vegetables, herbs, and fruits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWe have carefully researched the breed characteristics of the Picardy Shepherd. We also researched the characteristics of the FCI breed section and FCI breed group to which the Picardy Shepherd belongs. Based on these studies, and in consultation with leading Dutch nutritionists, ingredients have been selected that optimally benefit the health and well-being of the Picardy Shepherd.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGlucosamine\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGlucosamine is a substance naturally produced by the body, found in joints, cartilage, synovial fluid, and tendons. Glucosamine stimulates cartilage production and keeps joints supple.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGlucosamine is one of the most commonly used supplements for dogs with osteoarthritis and\/or joint problems. This is not only the case for older dogs or overweight dogs but also increasingly for younger, very active dogs, for example, due to a genetic predisposition to joint problems. For these and other reasons, glucosamine is added to our dog food.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMarigold\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe marigold (calendula) is a plant that, like goldenrod, belongs to the daisy family. Calendula is a cultivated flower; it has been used for its various medicinal properties for centuries. The original calendula species likely originated in Asia and Eastern Europe, but this field marigold is now rarely found in the wild. Marigold is also an edible plant for humans and is rich in nutrients.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMuch information is available on the positive effects of calendula. Calendula can be added to our dog food because it may contribute positively to preventing breed-specific issues related to the skin, mouth, throat, digestion, eyes, and feet. It is especially good for skin and mucous membrane recovery, acts as an anti-inflammatory, and has a regenerative effect. It can also prevent cramps during digestion.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCalendula is primarily used as an external care product for scratches or skin problems, among other things. But it can also be used internally due to its regenerative properties.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCarrot\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe carrot as we know it today, or the orange carrot, is the result of many years of cross-breeding. The first white carrots originally came from Iran and were brought to the Netherlands by the VOC in the 17th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCarrots are an important source of vitamins and fiber. Carrots contain retinol (vitamin A1) and beta-carotene, which is converted into vitamin A in the body. This is important for capillary development and the health of all cells. The fiber in a carrot contributes to a dog's digestion. Additionally, carrots are low in calories and good for coat and skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt Yourdog, we add carrot to dog food because it can contribute positively to preventing breed-specific issues related to a dog's coat and skin. It also promotes good vision and healthy digestion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePuppy, adult, or senior?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTo help you choose the right variant of our Picardy Shepherd dog food, you can use the following guidelines. If your Picardy Shepherd is younger than 11 months, choose the Puppy variant. For a Picardy Shepherd older than 7 years, we recommend Yourdog Picardy Shepherd Senior.

For the first step, feed 25% Yourdog and 75% of the old dog food. The dog can get used to this for two days. Then, feed 50% Yourdog and 50% of the old dog food. It is important to let the dog get used to this for another two or three days. After that, mix 75% Yourdog and 25% of the old dog food. The dog will now be almost completely transitioned to Yourdog. Do this for 2 days. After this, you can, at your discretion, start feeding 100% Yourdog Picardy Shepherd dog food.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStorage advice\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAfter opening the Yourdog packaging, the food is exposed to oxygen, moisture, and light, which can affect its shelf life and taste. Therefore, it is important to store the food properly after opening the bag, preferably in an airtight storage container or bin in a dry, cool, and dark place. It is best not to put the food loosely in the bin, but to place the entire bag, which you should seal as tightly as possible, inside the bin.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComposition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCorn, dried chicken (23%), barley, peas, dried buffalo (3.5%), poultry fat, choline chloride, glucosamine, chondroitin, vegetable mix (including carrot), fruit mix (including apple), herb mix (including marigold) \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnalytical constituents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCrude protein 24%, crude fat 8%, crude fiber 3.9%, crude ash 6%, Calcium 1.4%, Phosphorus 1.1%\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNutritional values\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eVitamin A 20,000 IU (E672), vitamin D3 1,400 IU (E671), vitamin E as all rac-alpha-tocopheryl acetate (3a700) 500 mg, E1 Fe as iron(II) sulfate, monohydrate: 50 mg, E2 I as calcium iodate, anhydrous: 1.5 mg, E4 Cu as copper(II) sulfate, pentahydrate: 5.0 mg, E5 Mn as manganese(II) oxide: 35 mg, E6 Zn as zinc oxide: 65 mg, E8 Se as sodium selenite: 0.2 mg.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"YOURDOG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54507866358099,"sku":"16260.401209","price":79.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1017\/2429\/1411\/files\/401209.jpg?v=1786018275","url":"https:\/\/petsboutiquewestland.nl\/en\/products\/yourdog-picardische-herder-senior-12-kg","provider":"Pets boutique Westland ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
