Dogalicious Urinary Care Fresh Food effectively prevents and dissolves struvite stones in dogs through low phosphorus & magnesium, urine acidification, and high moisture design.

• Protein restriction and high-quality protein: Dogs with struvite urolithiasis benefit from moderate protein restriction in order to decrease urea production, but for this reason, it’s even more important that the protein fed to the dogs is high-quality and contains all the essential amino acids in balanced amounts. This formulation guarantees that with its calibrated content of chicken, liver and eggs.
• Low phosphorus content: phosphorus is a component of struvite stones, so limiting its intake helps prevent crystal formation.
• Low magnesium content: magnesium is a component of struvite stones, so limiting its intake helps prevent crystal formation.
• Increased sodium content: to stimulate the dog to drink more water and stay better hydrated, therefore keeping the urine diluted.
• Urine acidifying properties: to promote the formation of acidic urine to increase struvite solubility and aid in stone dissolution. All ingredients that tend to have the opposite effect (increase pH), such as potatoes, are avoided.
• Cranberries inclusion: besides helping acidify the urine, cranberries can help prevent bacterial infections associated with struvite development.

Additionally, Dogalicious struvite diet is a fresh food, which is the best option for dogs who suffer from struvite urolithiasis, since it is high in moisture compared with dry pet food and this helps keep the kidneys and the urinary tract hydrated – and this allows for dilution of urine, and less concentrated urine reduces the likelihood of minerals clumping together to form struvite crystals and stones. Higher water consumption also increases urine output and flow, which helps flush out the urinary tract, removing potential existing crystals and preventing stone formation.
