Purina Proplan Veterinary Diet CC Cardio Care Dry Food for Dogs
Description
Purina Proplan CardioCare is a nutritionally balanced complete veterinary dry dog food for the support of heart function in dogs with chronic cardiac insufficiency.
Available in 3kg and 12kg bag sizes.
Purina Proplan CC Cardio Care Diet should be considered as an important part of the veterinary management for dogs with a cardiac condition, as it can help to slow the progression of the disease from an early stage of MMVD. Once the disease progresses to congestive heart failure, dogs have a much shorter life expectancy. Nutritional management can play a key role in helping to maintain an ideal body weight. Both weight loss and obesity should be avoided: both can be harmful, and avoiding them can help to minimise breathing problems or loss of cardiac muscle.
Recommended for:
Chronic cardiac insufficiency, Mitral valve conditions (Myxomatous Mitral Valve Disease), Heart murmurs (associated with cardiac disease).
This veterinary diet should be used under veterinary supervision and is not a replacement for medical management of heart disease.
