IMPORTANT Always have fresh, clean water available.

Although you will be keen to see the difference PRO PLAN® can make in your dog, please allow 7 – 10 days to transition from their current food.  This enables your dog’s digestive enzymes to gradually adapt to the change in ingredient and nutritional content, assisting with the proper digestion of the food and helping prevent stomach upsets.  Each day, simply feed a little less of the previous food and a little more of PRO PLAN® until you are feeding PRO PLAN® exclusively.

Please dispose of it in your garbage bin. Do not put any soft plastics in your household recycling bin, as they can contaminate other materials and make them harder to recycle.

* A few councils have a specialist soft plastic recycling service: please check with your local council.
