OPTIMUM® Puppy (dry)
sml/med breeds 4 weeks - 12 months
large breeds 4 weeks - 15 months
Puppies grow very rapidly and require a different diet to adult and
mature dogs. In fact, in just 12 months they can grow as much as a human does in 12 years. A diet that is high in energy and nutrients that supports rapid growth is essential.
OPTIMUM® Puppy is formulated with higher levels of protein for muscle development and calcium for strong teeth and bones. OPTIMUM® Puppy also contains colostrum (in dry product) to help strengthen the gastrointestinal health during the critical growth stages of the first 12 months. It is highly digestible for even the smallest, sensitive stomachs.
Available in Chicken Formula 2kg, 4kg and 8kg sizes.

oxidative stress on your puppy’s cells.
INTESTINAL HEALTH
The combination of soluble and insoluble fibre acts as a prebiotic and
selectively promotes healthy bacteria in the gut resulting in fewer and
firm stools. Additionally, beet pulp helps slow the passage of food
through the digestive tract maximising the nutrient uptake.
DENTAL DEFENCE SYSTEM
Specifically designed dental system that has been proven to help reduce
plaque build up and help protect teeth and gums. The active ingredient
sodium tripolyphosphate, promotes good oral hygiene for your puppy.
SKIN AND COAT HEALTH
The OPTIMUM® range delivers a healthier, shinier coat because it
contains a blend of zinc and linoleic acid (a naturally occurring oil).
Made in Australia from quality ingredients, OPTIMUM® Puppy contains no
added artificial colours, flavours or preservatives. We all know the
more natural food is, the better it is for us - and our pets.
Case Study: Cooper
Our puppy is almost 7 months old and for the past 3 months we have been feeding him OPTIMUM® Puppy Food. We rescued Cooper from a shelter and when he arrived home he was a little skinny, but is now thriving. He LOVES his OPTIMUM Puppy food and we like that we can interchange between wet or dry food. Thanks for contributing to the health and well being of our newest family member!
