Dr. Tim's Weight Management Metabolite Formula Grain-Free Dry Dog Food
Dr. Tim's Grain-Free Metabolite is a paw-fect choice if your furbaby needs to lose a little weight. Designed for pups with grain sensitivities, this formula features field peas, potatoes and tapioca instead of grains. High levels of protein, a fiber system and moderate fat content all work together with your best friend’s metabolism to support weight loss. The food helps to optimize your furbaby’s ability to burn calories. It’s a paw-some way to manage your pup’s weight without causing him to feel hungry all the time, so it can cut down on extra begging. Ingredients like L-carnitine help with fat metabolism, while ground flaxseed meal and taurine support your dog’s overall health. Probiotics, prebiotics and antioxidants support your best friend’s immune system and promote a healthy gut. Finally, omega-3 fatty acids sourced from ocean fish support your furbaby’s mental clarity.
