Montego Classic Small Breed Puppy Dry Dog Food

The early months are the most important for learning. We have included high levels of Omega-3 polyunsaturated fats, specifically DHA from salmon oil, which is an essential building block for brain and eye development. This helps support your puppy’s curiosity and alertness, making those early training sessions more productive.Because small breed puppies burn energy faster than larger breeds, their food needs to work harder. This formula features an optimized blend of 27% protein and 12% fat to sustain high energy levels and build lean muscle mass. This prevents the "energy crashes" that can affect smaller pups while ensuring they reach their adult size with peak muscle conditioning.A soft, shiny coat is the hallmark of a healthy puppy. By balancing Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, we stimulate hair follicles and protect skin cells, ensuring your puppy's coat stays thick, radiant, and healthy.

High-Energy Growth Support: Small breed puppies have an incredibly fast metabolism. With 27% Protein and 12% Fat, this formula provides the concentrated energy and high-quality amino acids required for rapid muscle development.

Brain & Vision Development (DHA): Enriched with DHA from salmon oil, which supports cognitive function and retinal development, helping your puppy stay sharp, alert, and ready for training.

Immune System Shield: Natural antioxidants like Vitamins C and E help neutralize free radicals and assist in building a robust immune system during the critical early months of life.
