#5: Freedom from Fear & Distress
There’s a strong link between diet and behaviour ...
As humans, we recognise that our emotions and moods affect our behaviour. Thanks to science, we recognise that these are influenced by experience and the balance of key neurotransmitters in our brains. When it comes to a dog’s behaviour, the exact same science applies. Clinical studies show that in healthy dogs balanced neurotransmitters enable them to think clearly and to be receptive to learning and training.
One of the most important neurotransmitters involved is serotonin, as this can help to control mood and sleep and has been shown to influence behaviours related to anxiety, stress and fear in the dog. L-Tryptophan, provided in Breakthrough StartUp, is a serotonin precursor.
Breakthrough StartUp dog food is clinically proven to help maintain and support learning ability and social interaction alongside appropriate behavioural therapy.
From a behavioural point of view, increasing the levels of serotonin in the brain will assist in the treatment of a number of behaviour problems.
