Product Details

Now that your medium breed puppy is around 7-12 months old, they have reached the adolescent stage when their body is almost fully developed and the growth stage has peaked. In this “teenager” lifestage, your young adult dog also has changing nutritional needs, requiring a slightly different diet that maintains healthy weight gain and supports their joints. It’s time to gradually switch to a good dry dog food like VETERINARY HPM® Junior Medium Dog* that is formulated to give medium junior dogs (adult weight: 11-25 kg) an energy-dense, high-protein recipe that:

Supports healthy growth
 VETERINARY HPM® Junior Medium Dog is an energy-dense dry dog food with a high 35% protein content (90% from animal sources) and low carbohydrates (25%) providing lots of energy for playing and running.

Controls weight gain
 The low 25% carbohydrate content prevents excessive weight gain and potential osteoarticular issues caused by the pressure of weight on joints. When your young adult dog is fed the recommended rations, VETERINARY HPM® Junior Medium Dog provides the ideal energy density levels for the end-of-growth period for medium breed puppies.  

Builds muscle mass
 With a high protein content of 35% (90% from animal sources), your adolescent dog will develop health muscle mass to keep them physically active and coordinated.  

Supports healthy joint growth
 A healthy musculoskeletal system is essential for both everyday mobility and high-energy physical activities. VETERINARY HPM® Junior Medium Dog gives your young dog the high-quality protein and balanced minerals it needs for healthy joints.

Promotes healthy digestion
 Formulated with low starch and excluding common food allergens such as wheat, maize and gluten to help ensure good digestive intolerance and with the addition of prebiotics (fructo-oligosaccharides) and probiotics (lactobacilli), which are scientifically proven to support beneficial digestive flora and a healthy microbiome. Psyllium fibre maintains regular digestion and stools, while bentonite ensures normal stool odour and consistency.

In addition to protecting the urinary health of your young medium breed dog, VETERINARY HPM® Junior Medium Dog also contains ingredients like omega-3 fish oil to improve the skin and coat.

VETERINARY HPM® does not contain any artificial colours or flavours.

Your young adult dog will love VETERINARY HPM® Junior Special Diet for Medium Breeds dry dog food because it’s delicious, but resist the urge to feed them every time they ask for more. This is a carefully formulated diet, so we strongly recommend following the standard daily ration for their weight and age. You will find our complete feeding guidelines on the bag, but your vet or vet nurse can provide you with a feeding plan that is customised for your pet.

The recommended minimum daily amount a dog should drink is 50-70 ml of water per kilogram of bodyweight. VETERINARY HPM® dry dog food is specially formulated with a higher protein content, which will encourage your dog to naturally consume more water. This helps to support their urinary health by increasing urine volume and stabilising urinary pH. Consult your vet or vet nurse if you want advice on your dog's water intake.

Virbac has been producing the VETERINARY HPM® dry dog food brand at its plant in Vauvert, France, since 2015. We have been expertly formulating pet food for close to four decades though and we have applied our extensive experience and expertise to meet exacting quality standards. We also strive to satisfy pet owners everywhere by exceeding their expectations in terms of food traceability and safety.
