Clinical Considerations: The role of dietary management in canine diabetes mellitus and colitis is to provide a proper balance of total nutrients while meeting the special dietary needs of the patient. Complex carbohydrates and dietary fiber help to delay the absorption of glucose from the intestinal tract and minimize postprandial fluctuation of glucose in dogs with diabetes mellitus. Soluble fiber in the diet may also prolong gastrointestinal transit time, allow greater water absorption, and promote the production of short chain fatty acids which nourish the intestinal mucosa. Diet Characteristics: Purina Veterinary Diets DCO Dual Fiber Control canine formula provides complete and balanced nutrition for maintenance of the adult dog and has been formulated to achieve the following characteristics: High level of complex carbohydrates Source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids Targeted urine pH-acid (6.0-6.2) Moderate total dietary fat and calories Increased fiber including soluble fiber MEDICAL INDICATIONS: Diets with these nutritional modifications have been recommended for dogs with some forms of the following conditions: Fiber responsive colitis Diabetes mellitus Constipation Large bowel diarrhea MEDICAL CONTRAINDICATIONS: None FEEDING AND ADMINISTRATION: The following feeding program is recommended as a guideline only, with discretionary clinical adjustments for proper weight maintenance.

Clinical Considerations: The role of dietary management in dental disease is to provide a proper balance of total nutrients that can be fed every day for maintenance while meeting the special dietary needs of the patient. Nutritional management of dogs that are prone to the formation of tartar centers on feeding a kibble that significantly decreases the accumulation of tartar. This can be accomplished by designing a kibble that is both large enough to promote increased chewing time and that has a special texture to allow the tooth to penetrate deep into the kibble before it breaks. Greater tooth penetration extends contact time with the kibble for an excellent cleaning effect. Diet Characteristics: Purina Veterinary Diets DH Dental Health Canine Formula and DH Dental Health Small Bites Canine Formula have been formulated to provide complete and balanced nutrition for adult and senior dogs, while providing the following characteristics: Optimal kibble size Moderate calories Patented kibble texture Exceptional palatability Added antioxidants A and E Perfect nutrition for everyday feeding of adult and senior dogs Natural source of glucosamine MEDICAL INDICATIONS: Diets with these nutritional modifications have been recommended for adult and senior dogs with the following conditions: Adult and senior dogs to help reduce the accumulation of plaque and tartar Adult and senior dogs for everyday maintenance MEDICAL CONTRAINDICATIONS: None FEEDING AND ADMINISTRATION: The following feeding program is recommended as a guideline only, with discretionary clinical adjustments for proper weight maintenance.

Clinical Considerations: The role of dietary management in canine atopy, dermatitis and other inflammatory skin conditions is to provide a proper balance of total nutrients while meeting the special dietary needs of the patient. Nutritional management of dermatitis involves providing nutrients that can support healthy skin and help to reduce the production of inflammatory mediators. Essential fatty acids, key vitamins and amino acids, and trace minerals such as zinc, are critical to healthy skin. Long chain omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to reduce the inflammation and clinical signs associated with atopy and allergic dermatitis, so may be beneficial in these and other inflammatory skin conditions. A diet with novel protein ingredients may also help in the management of dogs with food allergies. Diet Characteristics: Purina Veterinary Diets DRM Dermatologic Management canine formula provides complete and balanced nutrition for growth of puppies and maintenance of the adult dog and has been formulated to achieve the following characteristics: High omega-3 fatty acid content Added zinc Appropriate levels of omega-6 fatty acids Limited number of novel protein ingredients Increased antioxidant vitamins A, E and beta-carotene MEDICAL INDICATIONS: Diets with these nutritional modifications have been recommended for dogs with the following conditions: Other inflammatory skin conditions Atopy Food allergic dermatitis Pruritus Conditions benefitting from moderate sodium restriction MEDICAL CONTRAINDICATIONS: Allergies to listed ingredients FEEDING AND ADMINISTRATION: The following feeding program is recommended as a guideline only, with discretionary clinical adjustments for proper weight maintenance.

Clinical Considerations: The role of dietary management in canine gastrointestinal conditions is to provide a proper balance of total nutrients while meeting the special dietary needs of the patient. Dietary fats from long chain triglycerides (LCT) can be one of the most complex nutrients to digest, and fermentation of undigested fats can contribute to diarrhea. Medium chain triglycerides (MCT) provide a readily digested and utilized energy source. Feeding a properly formulated diet designed to be highly digestible yet restricted in long chain triglycerides may be beneficial in the management of certain gastrointestinal conditions while meeting the nutritional needs of the animal.

Clinical Considerations: The role of dietary management in canine food allergy is to provide a proper balance of total nutrients while meeting the special dietary needs of the patient. Most common food allergens are proteins with a molecular weight of 18,000 to 36,000 daltons. Protein modification is a process which alters the physical characteristics of protein molecules, reducing the antigenicity and rendering them less able to elicit an immune response. By reducing the molecular weight of the protein molecule below 18,000 daltons, this process can result in a protein that is truly hypoallergenic. Diet Characteristics: Purina Veterinary Diets HA Hypoallergenic canine formula provides complete and balanced nutrition for the growth of puppies and maintenance of the adult dog and has been formulated to achieve the following characteristics: Hydrolyzed protein source with an average molecular weight below 12,200 daltons Single protein source Vegetarian diet Source of Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs)-23% of fat Low allergen carbohydrate source High digestibility MEDICAL INDICATIONS: Diets with these nutritional modifications have been recommended for dogs with the following conditions: Protein losing enteropathy Elimination diet for food trials Dermatitis associated with food allergy Inflammatory Bowel Disease Pancreatitis Lymphangiectasia Gastroenteritis associated with food allergy Malabsorption Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency Hyperlipidemia MEDICAL CONTRAINDICATIONS: None FEEDING AND ADMINISTRATION: The following feeding program is recommended as a guideline only, with discretionary clinical adjustments for proper weight maintenance.

Clinical Considerations: The role of dietary management in canine arthritis is to provide a proper balance of total nutrients while meeting the special dietary needs of the patient. Nutritional management of dogs with arthritis centers on reducing excess body weight and providing nutrients with anti-inflammatory characteristics. Long-chain polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids, especially eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), nutritionally compete with arachidonic acid as a substrate for cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, reducing the amount of pro-inflammatory mediators produced. Dietary antioxidants can help address the oxidative stress that often accompanies inflammation. Providing a diet containing a natural source of glucosamine may also be beneficial for dogs with arthritis. Diet Characteristics: Purina Veterinary Diets JM Joint Mobility canine formula has been formulated to provide complete and balanced nutrition for the growth of puppies and maintenance of adult and senior dogs, while providing the following characteristics: High EPA and omega-3 fatty acid content High protein:calorie ratio Appropriate levels of omega-6 fatty acids Natural source of glucosamine Moderate fat content Excellent palatability High levels of antioxidant vitamin E and vitamin C (dry only) MEDICAL INDICATIONS: Diets with these nutritional modifications have been recommended for dogs with the following conditions: Adult and senior dogs with osteoarthritis Rheumatoid arthritis Healthy puppies and adult dogs predisposed to joint disorders Other inflammatory joint conditions Conditions benefitting from moderate sodium restriction MEDICAL CONTRAINDICATIONS: None FEEDING AND ADMINISTRATION: The following feeding program is recommended as a guideline only, with discretionary clinical adjustments for proper weight maintenance.

Clinical Considerations: The role of dietary management in canine kidney conditions is to provide a proper balance of total nutrients while meeting the special dietary needs of the patient. Low phosphorus intake helps to protect against hyperphosphatemia and the associated renal damage. Restricted but high quality protein in the diet minimizes the intake of nonessential amino acids. This helps decrease the production of nitrogenous waste products. Reduced levels of sodium help compensate for the diseased kidneys inability to regulate this important mineral. Increased omega-3 fatty acids may help reduce glomerular hypertension. Diet Characteristics: Purina Veterinary Diets NF Kidney Function brand canine formulas provide complete and balanced nutrition for adult maintenance and have been formulated to achieve the following characteristics: Low phosphorus Reduced sodium Reduced protein Target urine pH-alkaline (6.7-7.5) Added potassium Source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids MEDICAL INDICATIONS: Diets with these nutritional modifications have been recommended for dogs with some forms of the following conditions: Renal failure Conditions benefitting from moderate sodium restriction Hepatic disease associated with encephalopathy NF Kidney Function also features many of the characteristics that have been recommended for dogs with a history of the following condition: Calcium Oxalate Urolithiasis See page 42-43 of the full product guide for stone management information MEDICAL CONTRAINDICATIONS: Conditions that require high protein or phosphorus intake.

OVERWEIGHT MANAGEMENT
C A N I N E F O R M U L A
Clinical Considerations: The role of dietary management in canine obesity is to reduce calorie intake sufficiently to induce weight loss, while providing a proper balance of total nutrients. A low fat diet can be helpful in controlling calorie intake. Dietary crude fiber helps reduce the amount of available calories and contributes to satiety. Increased dietary protein increases metabolic activity and may promote satiety. In addition, an increased protein:calorie ratio promotes loss of body fat while helping to minimize the loss of lean body mass during weight loss. Obese animals experience an increase in oxidative stress. Isoflavones have been shown to reduce oxidative stress in overweight dogs. Isoflavones also aid in weight maintenance by helping to reduce weight rebound and the associated accumulation of fat. Feeding a diet that is low in calories, high in protein and fiber, and contains isoflavones, may be beneficial in the management of obesity while meeting the nutritional needs of the animal. Diet Characteristics: Purina Veterinary Diets OM Overweight Management canine formulas provide balanced nutrition for safe and effective weight loss and weight maintenance and have been formulated to achieve the following characteristics: Low fat High protein:calorie ratio Low calorie Contains a source of isoflavones (dry) High fiber MEDICAL INDICATIONS: Diets with these nutritional modifications have been recommended for dogs with some forms of the following conditions: Diabetes mellitus in overweight dogs Obesity Hyperlipidemia in overweight dogs Constipation Neutered/spayed dogs Fiber responsive colitis MEDICAL CONTRAINDICATIONS: Conditions associated with catabolic states FEEDING AND ADMINISTRATION: The following feeding program is recommended as a guideline only, with discretionary clinical adjustments for obesity management. The suggested daily food intake for weight loss is based on the dogs current weight, average caloric requirements and a desired weight loss of 2% of body weight per week. Daily food intake should be adjusted every 4 weeks:

Clinical Considerations: The role of dietary management in dental disease is to provide a proper balance of total nutrients that can be fed every day for maintenance while meeting the special dietary needs of the patient. Nutritional management of cats that are prone to the formation of tartar centers on feeding a kibble that significantly decreases the accumulation of tartar. This can be accomplished by designing a kibble that is both large enough to promote increased chewing time and that has a special texture to allow the tooth to penetrate deep into the kibble before it breaks. Greater tooth penetration extends contact time with the kibble for an excellent cleaning effect. Diet Characteristics: Purina Veterinary Diets DH Dental Health Feline Formula has been formulated to provide complete and balanced nutrition for adult and senior cats, while providing the following characteristics: Optimal kibble size Moderate calories Patented kibble texture Exceptional palatability Added antioxidants A and E Perfect nutrition for everyday feeding of adult and senior cats Natural source of glucosamine MEDICAL INDICATIONS: Diets with these nutritional modifications have been recommended for adult and senior cats with the following conditions: Adult and senior cats to help reduce the accumulation of plaque and tartar Adult and senior cats for everyday maintenance MEDICAL CONTRAINDICATIONS: None FEEDING AND ADMINISTRATION: The following feeding program is recommended as a guideline only, with discretionary clinical adjustments for proper weight maintenance.

F E L I N E F O R M U L A
Clinical Considerations: The role of dietary management in feline diabetes mellitus is to provide a proper balance of nutrients while meeting the special dietary needs of the patient. Cats are unique in their requirement to metabolize high concentrations of dietary protein. A high percentage of protein is used for gluconeogenesis. The increased concentration of high quality protein in this diet provides the cats essential amino acid requirements and a substrate for glucose production. With glucose production from dietary amino acids, the carbohydrate content of the diet may be dramatically reduced as with this formulation. Glucose derived from hepatic gluconeogenesis is delivered to the bloodstream at a slower rate compared to the release of glucose from digestion of dietary carbohydrate. The result is a more consistent, steady release of glucose and the potential for reduced insulin requirements. Diet Characteristics: Purina Veterinary Diets DM Dietetic Management Feline Formula provides complete and balanced nutrition for the adult cat and has been formulated to achieve the following characteristics: High protein Low carbohydrate Source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids High level of antioxidants MEDICAL INDICATIONS: Diets with these nutritional modifications are recommended for cats with the following: Critical Care Management of cats and dogs Diabetes mellitus See page 44 for information on Glucotest Persistent hyperglycemia Hipatic Lipidosis Enteritis, diarrhea MEDICAL CONTRAINDICATIONS: Renal failure Hepatic encephalopathy

Clinical Considerations: The role of dietary management in feline kidney conditions is to provide an appropriate balance of total nutrients while meeting the special dietary needs of the patient. Low phosphorus intake helps to protect against hyperphosphatemia and the associated renal damage. Restricted but high quality protein in the diet minimizes the intake of nonessential amino acids. This helps decrease the production of nitrogenous waste products. Reduced levels of sodium helps compensate for the diseased kidneys inability to regulate this important mineral. Increased omega-3 fatty acids may help reduce glomerular hypertension.

OVERWEIGHT MANAGEMENT
F E L I N E F O R M U L A
Clinical Considerations: The role of dietary management in feline obesity is to provide a proper balance of total nutrients while meeting the special dietary needs of the patient. Dietary fats contribute more than twice the available energy compared to carbohydrates and protein. A low fat diet can be helpful in controlling calorie intake. Dietary crude fiber is poorly digested and helps reduce the amount of available calories and may contribute to satiety. Increased dietary protein may promote both increased metabolic activity and satiety. In addition, an increased protein:calorie ratio promotes loss of body fat while helping to minimize the loss of lean body mass during weight loss. Feeding a properly formulated diet designed to be restricted in calories, and high in fiber and protein, may be beneficial in the management of obesity while meeting the nutritional needs of the animal. Diet Characteristics: Purina Veterinary Diets OM Overweight Management feline formulas provide balanced nutrition for safe and effective weight loss and weight maintenance and have been formulated to achieve the following characteristics: Low fat High protein:calorie ratio Promotes acidic urine High fiber Low calorie MEDICAL INDICATIONS: Diets with these nutritional modifications have been recommended for cats with the following conditions: Hyperlipidemia in overweight cats Obesity Fiber responsive colitis Diabetes mellitus in overweight cats Constipation Hairballs MEDICAL CONTRAINDICATIONS: Conditions associated with catabolic states FEEDING AND ADMINISTRATION: The following feeding program is recommended as a guideline only, with discretionary clinical adjustments for obesity management. The suggested daily food intake for weight loss is based on the cats current weight, average caloric requirements and a desired weight loss of 1% of body weight per week. Daily food intake should be adjusted every 4 weeks.

* For cats known to have sterile struvite stones, dietary dissolution may be attempted. Feed a diet that produces a relative supersaturation (RSS) of less than 1.0 (UR Urinary St/Ox feline formulas).
Urinary stones form as a result of varying combinations of underlying risk factors, many of which are uncontrollable inherent metabolic or genetic factors. Surgical removal of the stone does not eliminate the underlying metabolic risk factors. Therefore, it is important to attempt to control as many external risk factors as possible.
1. Culture the urine. If a stone is removed, culture the stone. Even if the urine is sterile, the stone may harbor bacteria. Canine struvite stones are called infection stones because a urinary tract infection with urease-producing bacteria is essential for their formation. 2. Treat with the appropriate antibiotic for a minimum of 2 weeks after stone removal. 3. For dogs with chronic or recurrent urinary tract infections continue antibiotic therapy at a low dose for 6 months, (1/3 of the standard dose is generally recommended) and culture the urine every 3 months. 4. Increase water consumption. Water may be added to the diet to enhance intake, or a canned diet may be fed. 5. Dietary modification is not necessary. Since struvite stones in dogs are the result of infection, feeding an acidifying diet or giving medication to acidify the urine is not necessary. Most normal dogs will maintain a mildly acidic urine pH when fed many diets, including: DCO Dual Fiber Control canine formulas.
1. Feed a mildly acidifying diet (UR Urinary St/Ox feline formulas) formulated to produce a relative supersaturation (RSS) of 1 or less. 2. Culture the urine and administer appropriate antibiotic therapy if indicated. Most cases of struvite stones in cats are not associated with primary infection, but may result in a secondary infection. 3. Increase water consumption. UR Urinary St/Ox promotes increased water intake and increased urine volume. Water may also be added tothe diet to enhance intake.

MAIN MENU
1. Increase water consumption. 2. Avoid over-restriction of dietary magnesium. Magnesium is a natural inhibitor of calcium oxalate stones. 3. Feed a diet with moderate levels of dietary calcium and phosphorus 4. Feed a diet, such as UR Urinary St/Ox, that results in urine that is metastable or undersaturated for calcium oxalate (RSS of less than 8.0) 5. If hypercalcemia is present, identify and eliminate the cause. 6. Control urinary tract infection, if present. 1. Rule out or correct portosystemic shunt if present. This is a common cause of urate stones in cats and non-Dalmatian dogs. 2. Feed a low purine diet (NF Kidney Function formulas for dogs and cats or HA Hypoallergenic canine formula). Diets containing organ meat protein generally have a much higher purine content than diets composed of vegetable protein. 3. Alkalinize the urine. Maintain a fasting urinary pH of 7.0-7.5. Feeding a non-acidifying diet (NF Kidney Function) may be sufficient. If not, use oral potassium citrate to effect, provided with meals. Initial dose 100 mg/kg/day in two divided doses. 4. Control urinary tract infections if present. 5. Administer allopurinol to Dalmatians if needed (Initial dose 10 mg/kg/day orally.) Allopurinol lowers the urinary urate excretion.
