When most people hear the words weight gainer, they imagine a product that simply adds calories. While calories are important for dogs that need to gain weight, a truly premium formula should do far more than that.
Healthy weight gain isn't just about increasing the number on the scales—it's about helping your dog build and maintain good body condition, support recovery, fuel activity and receive the nutrients needed for lifelong health.
That's exactly what Hench Range Ultimate Weight Gainer from Advanced Animal Care has been designed to do.
Why Healthy Weight Gain Matters
Dogs can lose weight and body condition for many reasons, including:
High activity levels
Working and sporting lifestyles
Recovery after illness or surgery
Poor appetite
Stress
Ageing
Fast metabolisms
Pregnancy and lactation
Rescue or neglected backgrounds
When dogs lose weight, they often lose more than fat.
They can also lose valuable muscle, strength, stamina and overall condition.
Supporting healthy weight gain means helping the whole body—not simply increasing calories.
More Than Just Calories
Many weight gain products focus on adding extra calories through inexpensive fats or carbohydrates.
A premium nutritional formula should also provide the nutrients that help support the body's normal functions while your dog regains condition.
Ultimate Weight Gainer combines high-calorie nutrition with carefully selected ingredients that support overall wellbeing.
Healthy Weight Gain
The formula contains a concentrated energy source with:
40% crude fat
12% crude protein
This provides additional calories to help dogs gain weight gradually while supporting lean body condition when combined with a balanced diet and appropriate exercise.
Supports Lean Muscle Maintenance
When a dog gains weight, maintaining lean muscle is just as important as restoring body fat.
The quality protein in the formula helps support:
Healthy muscle maintenance
Body condition
Recovery following periods of weight loss
Overall strength
This makes it suitable for active dogs, working dogs, show dogs and those returning to fitness.
Rich in Omega-3 & Omega-6 Fatty Acids
Healthy fats do much more than provide energy.
Ultimate Weight Gainer supplies Omega-3
and Omega-6 fatty acids, including:
Linoleic Acid
Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA)
EPA
DHA
These nutrients help support:
Healthy skin
A glossy coat
Brain function
Normal inflammatory responses
Overall wellbeing
Supports Energy Levels
Dogs with demanding lifestyles burn large amounts of energy every day.
Whether your dog enjoys:
Agility
Working trials
Canicross
Farm work
Long countryside walks
Show preparation
A calorie-dense nutritional formula helps replenish energy while supporting recovery between activities.
Supports Recovery
Dogs recovering from illness, surgery or periods of poor appetite often need additional nutritional support.
Providing extra calories alongside quality nutrients helps restore body condition more effectively than calories alone.
Ideal for Naturally Slim Dogs
Some dogs simply struggle to hold weight.
These "hard keepers" often eat well but remain lean due to fast metabolisms or naturally active lifestyles.
Ultimate Weight Gainer provides concentrated nutrition to help maintain an ideal body condition.
Supports Immune Health
A healthy immune system depends on good nutrition.
The formula contains vitamins including:
Vitamin A
Vitamin C
Vitamin D3
Vitamin E
B-Complex vitamins
Together with essential trace minerals, these nutrients help support normal immune function and overall health.
Taurine for Heart Health
Taurine is an important amino acid involved in many normal body functions.
It helps support:
Normal heart function
Healthy muscles
Overall wellbeing
Lecithin for Cell Health
Lecithin supports:
Healthy fat metabolism
Cell membrane function
Overall nutritional balance
It's another reason this formula offers far more than simple weight gain.
Complete Vitamin & Mineral Support
Alongside calories, Ultimate Weight Gainer provides a comprehensive range of essential nutrients including:
Iron
Zinc
Copper
Manganese
Iodine
Selenium
Calcium
These help support normal body function while your dog regains condition.
Who May Benefit?
Ultimate Weight Gainer may be suitable for:
Underweight dogs
Dogs recovering from illness or surgery
Working dogs
Sporting dogs
Show dogs needing optimum condition
Senior dogs requiring additional nutritional support
Naturally slim dogs
Fussy eaters needing extra calories
Always feed according to your dog's individual needs and seek veterinary advice if unexpected weight loss occurs.
