Royal Canin Veterinary Diets Canine Oral Bar~Daily oral hygiene maintenance for dogs~Uses

Daily oral hygiene maintenance for dogs.
– Limits the development of dental plaque and tartar
– Helps fight bad breath

Contraindications:
Dogs under 6 months of age, Chronic renal failure, Dogs with cardiac disease: should be adjusted according to the daily sodium intake (each bar provides 194 mg of sodium).

Product Advantages:

Brushing Effect:
Mechanical action on dental plaque and tartar. During chewing, the texture, structure and shape of Mini Oral Bar have an abrasive effect on dental plaque and tartar. This mechanical action helps to degrade the biofilm structure of dental plaque and attack existing tartar deposits whilst delaying the formation of new deposits.

Tartar Control:
Action on calcium. Sodium tripolyphosphate is a calcium-chelating agent, so calcium ions (Ca++) becomes unavailable for tartar formation. Because it is highly hydrophilic, tripolyphosphate spreads throughout the whole of the oral cavity, including areas that are not physically touched by Mini Oral Bar during mastication. Zinc, included in many human toothpastes, promotes calcium solubility and slows down calcium fixation in the form of tartar.

Bacteria Control:
Action that helps limit bad breath. Bad breath occurs as a result of the presence of Volatile Sulphur Compounds (V.S.C.) produced by bacteria. The key components included in Mini Oral Bar (zinc, eucalyptus and green tea polyphenols) have antiseptic properties and also help reduce bacterial growth, thus limiting the amount of Volatile Sulphur Compounds (V.S.C.) produced.

Further Information:
Tooth brushing is the most effective dental care available to fight against dental plaque. After tooth brushing, Mini Oral Bar is probably the easiest and the most effective way to promote the dog`s good oral hygiene. The trials we conducted in dogs showed no weight gain. However, Mini Oral Bar is a nutritional complement which provides approximately 40 kcal per bar. It is recommended that in order to avoid overfeeding, the dog`s daily food intake should be decreased by approximately 10%. This restriction should be adjusted according to the dog`s activity levels.

Dosage
Directions For Use : Mini Oral Bar should be given whole, once daily in between meals in order to maximise its efficacy on dental plaque.

Advice for Use
Before prescribing Mini Oral Bar, an examination of the dog’s oral cavity is recommended to detect any periodontitis that may cause reluctance to chew due to dental pain. Mini Oral Bar, which is recommended after scaling, can also be used in a behavioural context or as a reward:
- in young dogs over 6 months of age during training,
- in adult dogs, after grooming, eye and/or ear cleaning, tooth brushing, etc…~Mini Oral Bar - 28 x 16g bars|PM0183|Maxi Oral Bar - 28 x 28g bars|PM0184|~38142~46277~royal canin veterinary diet, royal canin, royal canin dog food, dog food, royal canine, mini oral bar, oral bar,maxi oral bar~

– 10-12 months in dogs that will weigh between 11 and 25 kg when fully grown
– 5 months in dogs that will weigh more than 25 kg when fully grown (These will then move to Digest & Osteo Junior)
– Gestating/lactating females

Product Advantages:

Digestive Security:
The combined fermentable fibre (beet pulp, FOS) promotes an optimum balance of the digestive microflora and helps protect the intestinal mucosa. Mannan-Oligo-Saccharides (MOS) stimulate local immunity in the intestine (IgA) and have a neutralising effect on pathogenic bacteria through competitive inhibition.

Skin Barrier:
The synergistic complex (niacin, pantothenic acid, choline, inositol and histidine) strengthens the skin barrier by increasing the synthesis of ceramides helping to avoid skin dehydration and protect against external stresses.

Nutrients Balance:
The calcium intake is appropriate to the food energy density and to the puppy’s age, providing an optimum calcium intake.

Highly Digestible Protein:
Protein digestibility is increased by selecting protein that is highly digestible in the intestine (wheat gluten, poultry protein isolate), thus decreasing the amount of protein entering the colon by 20-40%.

Further Information:
The combination of fermentable fibre (beet pulp, FOS) and non-fermentable fibre (cellulose) protects the colonic microbial ecosystem and helps improve digestive tolerance in the most sensitive puppies.~2kg|PM0112|8kg|PM0113|~38142~38155~royal canin vet early care, royal canin, royal canine, vet early care, dog food, puppy digest and skin,~

Highly Digestible Protein:
Protein digestibility is increased by selecting protein that is highly digestible in the intestine (wheat gluten, poultry protein isolate), thus decreasing the amount of protein entering the colon by 20-40%.

Further Information:
From 5 months of age, the growth rate of large breed puppies falls, their energy requirement for growth decreases and their digestive tract is able to receive an increased amount of food. The risk of overconsumption becomes more acute as the dog’s appetite develops. From this time, the puppy should be fed a diet with a lower energy content so as not to restrict the food intake too much and to prevent excess weight gain.~14kg|PM0116|~38142~38157~royal canin vet early care, royal canin, royal canine, vet early care, dog food, junior digest and skin,~

Royal Canin Veterinary Diets Canine Digestive Low Fat~Royal Canin Veterinary Diet canine Low Fat LF canned and dry are highly digestible, palatable, complete, and balanced dog foods highly restricted in fat, formulated to aid in the management of chronic diarrhea, gastrointestinal disease, and pancreatic disease in dogs and puppies.~"Uses
ROYAL CANIN Veterinary Diet canine LOW FAT LF (canned) and LOW FAT LF (dry) are highly digestible, palatable, complete, and balanced dog foods highly restricted in fat, formulated to aid in the management of chronic diarrhea, gastrointestinal disease, and pancreatic disease in dogs and puppies.

INDICATIONS:
-- Acute and chronic diarrhea in dogs and puppies
-- Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency
-- Acute and chronic pancreatitis
-- Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO)
-- Malabsorption syndrome
-- Lymphangiectasia
-- Gastroenteritis
-- Bile acid deficiency
-- Hypertriglyceridemia
-- Hypermotility
-- Hypomotility
-- Intestinal parasites (e.g., giardia, worms)
-- Diarrhea due to dietary indiscretion
-- Short bowel syndrome

RATIONALE:
Of the energy-providing nutrients, fat is the most difficult to digest. Fat absorption is easily disrupted when gastrointestinal function is sub-optimal. Restriction of dietary fat reduces the challenge to an already compromised gastrointestinal tract.

A deficiency of pancreatic enzymes (as occurs with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency and pancreatitis) impairs digestion and results in malabsorption of dietary nutrients. Although the digestion of protein and carbohydrate will be affected, the digestion of fat is most severely impaired since lipases are absent from the normal array of intestinal brush border enzymes.

Bacteria in the intestinal tract can metabolize undigested fat to hydroxy-fatty acids that can lead to secretory diarrhea in the large intestine. Bacteria also deconjugate bile acids further impairing fat digestion and absorption. For this reason, fat restriction is beneficial for conditions where fat may become available for microbial metabolism, for example in malabsorption syndrome, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, bile acid deficiency, and/or gastroenteritis.

Unlike amino acids and monosaccharides which are absorbed directly into the blood stream, fat is discharged from enterocytes into lacteals and is transported to the systemic circulation via mesenteric lymph vessels and the thoracic duct. Lymphangiectasia, a disorder characterized by congestion and/or dilatation of lymphatic vessels, will impair fat transport. LOW FAT LF (canned) and LOW FAT LF (dry) are highly restricted in fat, providing less than 16% of metabolizable energy from fat.

LOW FAT LF (canned) and LOW FAT LF (dry) contain moderate levels of highly digestible protein to meet the needs of dogs suffering from protein malabsorption or protein-losing enteropathy. The carbohydrates are highly digestible and do not contain lactose.

Since diarrhea can lead to loss of B-complex vitamins, B vitamin levels are enhanced. Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency can result in an inadequate uptake of zinc and copper, hence, zinc and copper levels are enhanced.

A clinical study with 48 dogs was conducted at the University of Edinburgh, Department of Veterinary Clinical Studies. All dogs presented with chronic diarrhea that had persisted despite aggressive drug and dietary management. Dogs were categorized into 5 groups: EPI, SIBO, malabsorption syndrome, colitis, and idiopathic diarrhea All dogs were started on LOW FAT LF(canned), and 14 parameters of GI function were measured monthly for 5 months. A significant improvement in body weight, appetite, drinking habits, demeanor, coat condition, skin condition, fecal appearance, consistency and frequency of defecation, a reduction in vomiting and coprophagia were reported.
