DEVELOPMENT FORMULA
INDICATIONS
Recuperation from Surgery/Trauma/Debilitating Illness
Development Formula provides increased essential nutrients in a highly digestible and extremely palatable formulation to address the increase in nutritional requirements for dogs recovering from trauma, surgery, parvo enteritis, and other debilitating conditions.

HIFACTOR FORMULA
INDICATIONS
Fiber-Responsive Disorders
Colitis is a group of disorders of the lower bowel resulting in clinical signs such as diarrhea and irregularity, which can benefit from a high fiber diet. Canine Hifactor contains optimal levels of fiber and has been supplemented with fructo-oligosaccharides. It contains a balanced blend of soluble and insoluble fiber for GI tract health and for the dietary management of colitis, constipation, hyperlipidemia and diabetes.

MATURE FORMULA
INDICATIONS
Older Adult
Canine Mature Formula is specially formulated to provide a complete, nutritionally balanced diet for mature dogs. It is reduced in sodium for hypertension, formulated with fewer calories provided by protein for cases of early renal disease and provides a moderate increase in fiber to aid in normal intestinal motility. Mature also contains controlled levels of phosphorus and has added potassium citrate for acid-base balance. This highly palatable diet is suitable for dogs with early heart failure and early renal disease.

MODIFIED FORMULA
INDICATIONS
In Chronic Renal Failure (CRF) excessive protein and phosphorus in the diet can exacerbate the clinical symptoms associated with CRF. Canine Modified uses the highest quality sources of low phosphorus protein to safely restrict these nutrients. To assist in the management of hypertension, sodium has been restricted, while B-vitamins have been increased to overcome the losses of these nutrients associated with CRF. This formula contains the highest levels of potassium citrate for acid-base balance and alkaline urine.

Primary Calcium Oxalate Urolithiasis
Modified Formula has been designed to help reduce the incidence of calcium oxalate uroliths. It is significantly reduced in calcium and sodium to decrease calciuria. It is reduced in protein (source of oxalate) and produces urine pH > 6.7. It is increased in B6 vitamins and has the highest inclusion of potassium citrate, an inhibitor of calcium oxalate urinary crystal and stone formation, of any Select Care canine diet.

Congestive Heart Failure
High blood pressure often accompanies heart failure, increasing the myocardial workload in a situation that already forces the heart to work at maximum capacity. Modified Formula contains less than half the sodium of most adult foods and is an excellent therapeutic aid in the treatment of hypertension. It is also supplemented with taurine and L-carnitine.

Hepatic Insufficiency
Excessive protein in dogs with compromised hepatic function can lead to or exacerbate encephalopathy. However, excessive protein restriction can worsen their condition. Modified Formula provides restricted but high quality, easily digested protein to reduce unnecessary nitrogen in the diet while supplying essential protein (amino acid) requirements.

NEUTRAL FORMULA
INDICATIONS
Gastrointestinal Disorders
Canine Neutral is a gluten-free diet formulated with a unique blend of high quality, easily digested protein and carbohydrate sources. It contains optimal levels of soluble and insoluble fiber with added fructo-oligosaccharides and glutamine to help maintain a healthy intestinal tract. Neutral Formula is a low fiber, highly digestible diet with high levels of anti-inflammatory omega 3 fatty acids like EPA and DHA. It has been designed for dogs with non-fiber dependent upper or lower bowel disorders, including cases of inflammatory bowel disease responsive to low fiber dietary management.

SENSITIVE FORMULA
INDICATIONS
Gastrointestinal Disorders
Acute gastroenteritis is a common problem in dogs of all breeds and ages. Improved Select Care Sensitive formula is specially formulated from highly digestible protein and carbohydrate sources. This formula also features added fructo-oligosaccharides, which help maintain a healthy digestive tract, along with glutamine to provide an energy source that can be used directly by intestinal cells. Now enhanced with a newly formulated lamb flavoring, improved Select Care Sensitive Formula is three times more palatable and is an effective natural diet for dogs with acute gastrointestinal problems. It is also ideal for long-term feeding.

Pancreatitis/Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency (EPI)
Feeding small amounts of low fat foods following acute or relapsing pancreatitis is important in the therapy of these disorders. Sensitive Formula provides a low fat, highly digestible diet beneficial in the nutritional management of these pets. The addition of amylase, lipase and protease in the dry formula makes it an ideal diet for dogs with EPI.
