Specific CAD Active contains an increased level of fat to ensure a higher concentration of free fatty acids in the blood. This serves as a source of energy for the more active dog because of their higher energy requirements. The high quality protein content ensures for healthy maintenance and development of muscle mass. High levels of omega 3 fatty acids from fish are also present as they improve the immune system, inhibit inflammatory processes, give a healthy skin and coat, protect against renal diseases and ensure healthy joints. Specific CAD Active is also suitable for dogs with an increased need for energy and nutrients due to disease or surgery.

The daily individual requirement may vary depending on factors such as breed, environment, season, activity etc. During races, sledge dogs may require up to three to four times as much energy compared to the energy requirement of the normal dog. It is therefore advisable to continue monitoring condition and body weight, adjusting the amount fed accordingly. Because of the high content of fat in CAD Active, it is recommended that the diet is changed from the dog’s usual diet to CAD Active during a period of 5-7 days.
