Why Choose Farmina N&D Ocean Puppy Mini?
Small-breed puppies have important nutritional requirements during their early growth stages.
They need appropriate amounts of protein, fat, calcium, phosphorus, essential fatty acids and other nutrients to support developing muscles, normal skeletal growth and everyday activity.
Farmina N&D Ocean Cod, Pumpkin & Cantaloupe Melon Puppy Mini combines premium seafood ingredients with selected carbohydrates, dietary fibres, vitamins and minerals in a complete growth formula.
Its nutrient-dense composition and specially sized kibble make it a practical choice for growing small-breed puppies.
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 contains dehydrated herring protein and dehydrated shrimp.
With 30% crude protein, this food provides protein-rich nutrition for growing puppies.

Puppyhood is an important period for neurological and visual development.
Farmina N&D Ocean Puppy Mini 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 Active, Growing Puppies
Small-breed puppies require sufficient energy to support their developing bodies, normal activity and daily growth.
With 20% crude fat and 4,125 kcal/kg, Farmina N&D Ocean Puppy Mini provides energy-dense nutrition.
The appropriate feeding quantity depends on your puppy's age, expected adult weight, growth rate and activity level.
Regularly monitoring body condition helps ensure your puppy receives enough nutrition without excessive weight gain.

The recipe is formulated as a complete puppy food, providing minerals alongside the other nutrients needed during growth.

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
