Why Choose Farmina N&D Ocean Puppy Medium/Maxi?
Growing medium- and large-breed puppies have specific nutritional requirements during their early development.
They require appropriate amounts of protein, fat, calcium, phosphorus, essential fatty acids and other nutrients to support normal muscle development, skeletal growth and daily activity.
Farmina N&D Ocean Cod, Pumpkin & Cantaloupe Melon Puppy Medium/Maxi combines premium seafood ingredients with selected carbohydrates, dietary fibres, vitamins and minerals in a complete growth formula.
Its nutrient-dense composition and specially sized puppy kibble make it a practical choice for growing medium- and large-breed dogs.
Premium Cod Protein for Healthy Growth
The formula contains:
-
26% cod
-
25% dehydrated cod protein
Together, these ingredients account for 51% of the recipe by ingredient weight.
Cod provides animal-derived protein and essential amino acids needed for developing muscles, growing tissues and normal physiological functions.
Dehydrated cod protein offers a concentrated protein source because much of its natural moisture has been removed.
The recipe also includes dehydrated herring protein and dehydrated shrimp.
With 30% crude protein, this food provides protein-rich nutrition for growing puppies.
DHA & EPA for Brain and Vision Development
Puppyhood is an important period for neurological and visual development.
Farmina N&D Ocean Puppy Medium/Maxi provides:
-
Omega-3: 2.50%
-
Omega-6: 1.80%
-
DHA: 1.10%
-
EPA: 0.80%
DHA is an important fatty acid for normal brain and retinal development.
EPA and other Omega-3 fatty acids contribute to normal cellular and physiological functions.
These nutrients form part of the food's complete nutritional composition for growing puppies.
Energy for Growing Puppies
Medium- and large-breed puppies need sufficient energy to support their developing bodies, daily activity and normal growth.
With 20% crude fat and 4,060 kcal/kg, Farmina N&D Ocean Puppy Medium/Maxi provides energy-dense nutrition.
Appropriate feeding quantities depend on your puppy's age, expected adult weight, growth rate and activity level.
Maintaining a healthy body condition is particularly important for growing larger breeds.
Overfeeding should be avoided, as excessive energy intake may contribute to overly rapid weight gain during development.
Balanced Calcium & Phosphorus
Developing puppies require carefully balanced minerals to support normal skeletal development.
Farmina N&D Ocean Puppy Medium/Maxi contains:
-
Calcium: 1.10%
-
Phosphorus: 0.91%
These minerals contribute to normal bone and tooth development.
The recipe is formulated as a complete puppy food, providing these minerals alongside the other nutrients needed during growth.
Additional calcium supplements should not be given unless recommended by a veterinarian.
Pumpkin & Digestive Support
The recipe contains 5% dried pumpkin, together with selected dietary fibres and prebiotic ingredients.
These include:
-
Pumpkin: Contributes dietary fibre and naturally occurring plant nutrients.
-
Inulin: A prebiotic fibre that supports beneficial intestinal bacteria.
-
Fructo-Oligosaccharides: Contribute to normal digestive function.
-
Yeast Extract: Provides a source of mannan-oligosaccharides.
-
Psyllium: Adds dietary fibre.
-
Pea Fibre: Contributes to the recipe's overall fibre content.
Together, these ingredients complement the food's nutritional profile and support normal digestive wellbeing.
Omega-3 Fatty Acids for Healthy Skin & Coat
Farmina N&D Ocean Puppy Medium/Maxi contains fish oil derived from herring.
This provides Omega-3 fatty acids that contribute to normal skin function, coat maintenance and cellular health.
Combined with complete nutrition and appropriate grooming, these fatty acids help maintain healthy-looking skin and fur as your puppy grows.
Glucosamine & Chondroitin
The formula provides:
-
Glucosamine: 1,400mg/kg
-
Chondroitin Sulphate: 1,100mg/kg
These compounds are associated with normal cartilage structure and are included in the recipe's nutritional composition.
Their presence does not make this food a treatment for joint disease.
Taurine for Normal Body Function
Farmina N&D Ocean Puppy Medium/Maxi contains 1,000mg/kg added taurine.
Taurine plays a role in normal cardiac and cellular functions and contributes to the food's overall nutritional profile.
L-Carnitine & Energy Metabolism
The formula contains 300mg/kg added L-carnitine.
L-carnitine is involved in the normal metabolism of fatty acids for energy.
It complements the recipe's protein, fat and energy content.
Grain-Free Recipe with Sweet Potato
Farmina N&D Ocean Cod, Pumpkin & Cantaloupe Melon is made without added cereal grains.
Instead, the formula includes sweet potato, pumpkin, pea fibre and selected botanical ingredients alongside its seafood proteins.
This makes it an option for owners who prefer grain-free puppy food.
Grain-free diets are not necessary or inherently better for every puppy. The most important consideration is selecting complete nutrition appropriate for your dog's individual growth requirements.
Cantaloupe Melon & Selected Botanical Ingredients
The formula contains 0.5% dried cantaloupe melon, alongside dried carrot, apple, pomegranate, spinach, blueberry and turmeric.
These selected botanical ingredients complement the seafood-based recipe and contribute naturally occurring plant nutrients.
