Food Intolerance

Having a multiple meat protein source will keep your puppy loving and craving TLC. Not only do puppies love the taste, but this will solve the problem some dogs have of protein intolerance. This is because protein intolerance’s occur when an animal ingests the same protein multiple times per day. As a result, the animal eventually rejects it. Feeding a food with multiple meat sources such as, Lamb Meal, Chicken Meal and Salmon Meal will prevent this from happening!
