Black Hawk Healthy Benefits Dental has been developed for your adult dog’s oral health. The tear-drop kibble sizeand fibrous plant-based ingredients create a tooth-friendly texture that aims to clean your dog’s teeth while they chew. Vitamin C is included as an antioxidant and to help to prevent plaque and tartar build-up.
A complete and balanced diet and a great choice for dogs who have finished growing and whose pet parents are looking to keep their dog’s teeth healthy. It's perfect for breeds and dogs who are prone to oral health problems, and we also recommend it for older dogs who may be at a higher risk of dental hygiene issues.
The unique teardrop kibble has been designed specifically for this diet to help facilitate maximum chewing activity, ‘crunching’, and tooth surface contact.
The kibble is larger-than-average in size, 15-18mm diameter, 9mm thickness, and appropriate for adult dogs of all breeds, all sizes. The act of chewing this kibble stimulates saliva production, which helps neutralise acid and prevent tooth decay.
This recipe contains plant cellulose, because when dogs eat kibble that contains cellulose fibre, the unique texture within the kibble can help to mechanically clean their teeth as they chew, which aids in reducing the build-up of plaque.
