Made with Real Chicken

BONNIE Adult Essentials Chicken contains real chicken as part of its meat and poultry ingredient blend.

Protein is important for maintaining healthy muscles, supporting normal tissue repair and contributing to general health.

With 20% crude protein, BONNIE Adult Essentials provides protein to support normal adult dog maintenance.

Wholegrains for Sustained Energy

Wholegrains are included to provide carbohydrates and fibre.

Carbohydrates help supply energy for daily activity, while dietary fibre contributes to normal digestive function.

This makes BONNIE Adult Essentials Chicken a practical choice for everyday adult dog feeding.

Supports Healthy Digestion

A healthy digestive system is essential for nutrient absorption and general wellbeing.

BONNIE Adult Essentials contains wholegrains and dietary fibre to help support normal digestive function.

Its complete and balanced formulation provides the nutrients required for everyday adult dog maintenance when fed according to the recommended feeding guide.

Calcium for Strong Bones

BONNIE Adult Essentials contains calcium and phosphorus, two important minerals involved in maintaining normal skeletal health.

Calcium contributes to strong bones and teeth, while phosphorus supports normal bone structure and energy metabolism.

Essential fatty acids form an important part of a balanced canine diet and contribute to normal skin and coat condition.

Feeding Recommendations

The feeding guide is intended as a starting point only.

Your dog's individual food requirements will depend on:

• Breed and body size
• Age and sex
• Current bodyweight
• Activity level
• Body condition
• Individual metabolism
• Environmental conditions

Monitor your dog's weight and body condition regularly and adjust feeding amounts as required.

A healthy adult dog should generally have ribs that can be felt easily and a visible waist when viewed from above.

Always provide access to clean, fresh drinking water.

Changing Your Dog to BONNIE Adult Essentials

When introducing a new dog food, a gradual transition helps your dog's digestive system adjust.

PURINA recommends allowing approximately 7–10 days when changing to BONNIE Adult Essentials.

Days 1–3: 25% BONNIE Adult Essentials Chicken and 75% current food.

Days 4–6: 50% BONNIE Adult Essentials Chicken and 50% current food.

Days 7–9: 75% BONNIE Adult Essentials Chicken and 25% current food.

If your dog experiences digestive upset, slow the transition and seek veterinary advice if symptoms persist.
