Dog
Day after day, wellbeing for your dog.
The dog, a social animal par excellence, has followed in the footsteps of men, adapting to their lives and becoming a companion in all its aspects, from adapting to human living habits to eating habits.
For these reasons, the dog cannot be comparable to the wild wolf and therefore needs a balanced diet in its formulation.
Veterinary Diet
Every dog has different dietary requirements depending on its state of health, age, level of daily motor and play activity, genetic factors, pathologies and much more.
An adequate diet is the first ally in supporting your four-legged friends by helping to improve their lives, whether in acute, chronic or sporadic cases, although it does not replace targeted therapies.
A veterinary diet is preferable in cases of
- obesity
- dermatological pathologies
- gastrointestinal pathologies
- metabolic pathologies
- urinary pathologies
- food intolerances
and other situations to be investigated with the veterinarian.
We use officinal herbs and plants to meet the increasingly specific needs of our faithful four-legged friends, preserving their health and wellbeing.

Why a plant-based diet?
Vegetarian and vegan choices are now well-established, and more and more people are embracing this lifestyle for ethical or health reasons, or simply out of curiosity.
More and more owners are choosing to feed their dogs and cats a diet that respects these principles, which can also help to meet specific nutritional needs.
Although, as is well known, dogs and cats are animals whose ancestors are carnivores, in certain situations resorting to a plant-based diet can be of real help to them.
Particularly when other foods, containing meat or animal derivatives, can trigger disturbances of various kinds, skin or intestinal, but also where specific diets and the use of hydrolysates have not brought results, the use of a plant-based diet, even if only for a certain period of time, has proved to be decidedly effective in many cases.
