Does your dog sometimes have a sensitive stomach? These Belly Support treats are composed around the digestion theme, with a herbal blend in a soft duck treat. Jacob Hooy is a Dutch herbal brand that has been in the natural segment for a long time; the Pets line brings that herbal tradition to the dog.
What are these treats?
Healthy Dog Belly Support are complete meat treats for dogs with 50% duck as the base, supplemented with plant-based by-products in the form of a herbal blend, plus oils and fats. The treats are soft in texture and therefore suitable for dogs of various ages, with the exception of puppies younger than 4 months.
The herbal blend
The herbal blend contains chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla), yarrow (Achillea millefolium), dandelion root (Taraxacum officinale), lemon balm leaf (Melissa officinalis), aniseed, witch hazel leaf and nigella (black cumin). These are traditional herbs within Dutch and European herbal medicine, where they are often used around the digestion theme. The positioning around Belly Support is aligned with that tradition. Within the regulations for animal feed, no specific medical claims are attributed to these herbs.
How do you give them?
The amount depends on your dog’s weight:
- Dog up to 10 kg: 2 treats per day
- Dog 10 to 20 kg: 4 treats per day
- Dog heavier than 20 kg: 6 treats per day
You can give them as a reward or as an addition to the daily meal. With a sensitive dog, start the first few days with half the recommended amount so you can assess tolerance. Do not exceed the recommended daily amount.
