Virbac Veterinary HPM Hypoallergy Dog A2 is a complete, clinically formulated hypoallergenic dry food for dogs with food allergies or intolerances. Food sensitivities can seriously affect a dog's wellbeing, often bringing digestive and skin problems — and A2 is built with hydrolysed fish protein to help manage intolerances and provide long-term relief from symptoms like itchiness, redness and digestive upset. It works as both an elimination diet (for diagnosis) and for long-term management, delivering complete, balanced nutrition with a taste dogs genuinely enjoy. This is a therapeutic veterinary diet and should be used under veterinary supervision.
Key Benefits
-
Hydrolysed fish protein — the protein is broken down into tiny parts so it's less likely to be recognised as a threat by the immune system, giving a low risk of intolerance.
-
Adequate protein for long-term feeding — up to 30% more protein than the average food-allergy diet (24%, 100% animal-origin), making it suitable for long-term use.
-
Skin & coat management — omega-3, omega-6 and sulphur amino acids support the skin barrier and a shiny coat, helping manage itchiness and redness.
-
Gastrointestinal support — a blend of postbiotics and prebiotics helps nurture gut flora and support good digestion, with bentonite to help regulate digestive movement.
-
Highly palatable — tasty animal proteins, rich fats and an appropriate level of hydrolysis make it appealing, unlike many hydrolysed products.
Composition
Potato starch (carbohydrate source), hydrolysed fish protein (24%), poultry fats, lignocellulose, minerals, hydrolysed pork and poultry proteins, beet pulp, mono/di/tri-glycerides of fatty acids, fructo-oligosaccharides, brewer's yeast, Lactobacillus acidophilus.
Key functional ingredients: Hydrolysed fish protein (low intolerance risk, broken down to avoid triggering an immune response, rich in omega-3) · Digestive supplements (lactobacilli + prebiotics for gut flora; bentonite clay to regulate digestion) · Omega-3 & omega-6 (support the skin barrier, natural oils and a shiny coat).
