HIMALAYA HEALTHY PUPPY MILK BISCUITS (S)
Out of Stock
Himalaya Healthy Treats Puppy in Chicken Flavour by The Himalaya Drug Company is a purposefully formulated treat designed to address two of the most pressing wellness concerns in growing puppies: underdeveloped immunity and digestive instability. The early weeks and months of a puppy's life represent a period of extraordinary physiological change, when the gastrointestinal system is still maturing, the immune system is transitioning away from maternally derived antibody protection, and the gut microbiome is being established for the first time. Conventional treats offer palatability alone, with no targeted benefit for these vulnerabilities. Himalaya Healthy Treats Puppy bridges this gap by combining a highly relished chicken-flavoured cereal base with a clinically informed selection of Ayurvedic herbal actives, including Ashwagandha and Fennel, that work synergistically to reinforce immunity, support smooth digestion, and promote the overall vitality of your growing canine companion. No artificial colours, artificial flavours, or artificial preservatives are added, making these treats a conscientious, clean choice for pet parents who want every snack to serve a genuine wellness purpose. Animeal is proud to offer Himalaya Healthy Treats Puppy in Chicken Flavour as part of its curated selection of trustworthy, science-backed treats that your pup will love and your veterinarian will approve.
Ingredients:
Cereals and Cereal By-Products: The cereal and cereal by-product base forms the foundational energy matrix of these treats, providing complex carbohydrates that deliver steady, sustained glucose for the high metabolic demands of rapidly growing puppies. Cereals also contribute dietary fibre that supports healthy gastrointestinal transit and feeds beneficial gut bacteria during the critical period of microbiome establishment in early puppyhood.
Poultry By-Product (Chicken): The chicken-derived poultry ingredient provides a bioavailable animal protein source that contributes essential amino acids including lysine and methionine, critical for muscle development, tissue repair, and the production of immune proteins such as immunoglobulins and cytokines. Chicken-derived ingredients are also a natural source of glucosamine, which supports the cartilage and joint development that is particularly important in small to medium breed puppies during their most active growth phase. The irresistible aroma and taste of chicken ensures exceptional palatability, making these treats an effective tool for training and reward sessions from the very earliest stages of puppyhood.
Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera): Ashwagandha is one of the most extensively researched adaptogens in the Ayurvedic pharmacopoeia, and its inclusion in a puppy-specific treat is a deliberate and clinically informed decision. At the cellular level, Ashwagandha's bioactive withanolide compounds modulate the activity of natural killer cells, macrophages, and T-lymphocytes, reinforcing both the innate and adaptive arms of the immune response during the period when a puppy's own immunity is still developing its functional breadth. Ashwagandha also exerts adaptogenic activity by regulating the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, buffering the cortisol response to environmental stressors such as new environments, separation, socialisation, and training, all of which are common sources of immunosuppressive stress in young dogs. By supporting immune priming and stress resilience simultaneously, Ashwagandha works to produce a puppy that is both physiologically stronger and behaviourally more settled.
Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare): Fennel, known in India as Saunf, is a classical Ayurvedic digestive stimulant with a well-documented carminative and antispasmodic action in the gastrointestinal tract. Its bioactive compounds, primarily anethole, fenchone, and estragole, work at the level of the intestinal smooth muscle, reducing cramping and relieving the uncomfortable accumulation of gas that is extremely common in young puppies whose digestive enzyme production and gut motility are still immature. Fennel also stimulates the secretion of bile and digestive juices, promoting more efficient breakdown and absorption of dietary fats and proteins, which is essential for a growing puppy's ability to extract maximum nutritional value from every meal and treat.
Cumin (Cuminum cyminum): Cumin is a powerful digestive activator and antimicrobial herb that complements the action of Fennel in this formula. Its volatile oil compounds, including cuminaldehyde and thymol, stimulate the secretion of pancreatic enzymes that facilitate the breakdown of complex macronutrients, while simultaneously suppressing the growth of pathogenic microorganisms in the gastrointestinal tract. Cumin's antioxidant polyphenol content further protects intestinal tissue from oxidative damage during the periods of dietary transition that are inevitable in early puppyhood.
Flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum): Flaxseed provides a plant-based source of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an omega-3 essential fatty acid that the canine body cannot synthesise independently. ALA is incorporated into the phospholipid membranes of skin cells, where it reinforces the skin's structural lipid barrier, reduces transepidermal water loss, and supports the production of anti-inflammatory eicosanoids that protect against dryness, flakiness, and itching. In growing puppies, flaxseed contributes to the development of a dense, healthy coat while laying the foundation for long-term skin integrity. Flaxseed also delivers soluble and insoluble dietary fibre that supports healthy gut motility and feeds beneficial probiotic bacteria.
