Description
Black Hawk Healthy Benefits Weight Management has been specifically developed as a lower calorie* diet by our animal nutritionists and vets, to help adult dogs maintain a healthy weight. It contains supplementary L-carnitine to help boost fat metabolism and maintain strong, lean muscles. The tasty kibble has a unique shape that fills the bowl and aims to slow eating, with ingredients to help dogs feel fuller for longer.
A nutrient-dense & lower-calorie formula, ideal for;
- Dogs with a ‘more sedentary’ (less active) lifestyle,
- Breeds predisposed to weight gain,
- Breeds that are highly food motivated, and
- Neutered dogs and older dogs, whose caloric needs are known to be reduced, will also greatly benefit from this diet

Important Feeding Information
- While watching their weight, it’s best to treat them with only a few kibble from their daily meal and ensure that extra foods don’t exceed 10% of their daily allowance. If your dog is known to have a weight issue, we recommend a visit to your vet.
- Neutered, indoor and less active dogs = less than 1 hour/day of low impact activity eg. lead walking.
- 1 metric cup (250ml) = approximately 110g.
- Make sure fresh water in a clean bowl is available at all times.

I bought a small bag for my Bordercollie to try it. He’s picky but he really likes it.
