Performance notes
The stew style wet format combined with the ActivBiome+ prebiotic blend is built to be gentle on digestion while still being palatable enough for a dog with a reduced appetite from stomach upset. The low fat profile is the core mechanism here, since fat is often the hardest macronutrient for a sensitive GI tract to process.
