How to use

Store Emeraid in a cool, dry space, and refrigerate powder after opening. Emeraid Omnivore has an 18-month shelf life from the time of production, and should be used within 9 months after opening. EmerAid ® Intensive Care HDN™ Canine meets or exceeds requirements for all life stages with the one exception of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) levels. When EmerAid HDN is fed to growing animals longer than 1 week, it is recommended the diet be supplemented daily with 1% fish oil (DMB). The NRC recommends a level of 0.13 g/1,000 kcal ME of a combination of DHA and EPA for both puppies. When fed for longer than 1 month, supplement EmerAid ® Intensive Care HDN™ Canine daily with 1% fish oil on a dry matter basis. When EmerAid HDN is fed to lactating animals longer than 1 week, it is recommended that the diet be supplemented daily with 1% fish oil (DMB). The NRC recommends a level of 0.11 g/1,000 kcal ME of a combination of DHA and EPA for adult dogs.

The 400g bag comes with a red scoop that has both large (1 tablespoon) and small (1 teaspoon) ends. Hydrolyzed starch supplies glucose, disaccharides, and oligosaccharides, which avoids the osmotic problems associated with feeding only glucose. Vital for the acute carbohydrate needs associated with debilitation. It can also be fed in combination with other exotic Emeraid diets to a variety of species including box turtles, bearded dragons, skinks, chameleons, aquatic turtles, geese, many free-ranging songbirds, and hedgehogs* The 400 g (3.5 oz) pouch and 2 kg (5 lb) tub come with a red scoop that has both large (1 tablespoon) and small (1 teaspoon) ends. Use the smaller end of the scoop to prepare a relatively small volume of formula. To prepare larger volumes of Emeraid, fill the large end of the scoop with powder.WARNING: Emeraid has been scientifically designed for extremely high digestibility. Avoid contamination. Handle product carefully. Keep dry. Use a clean, dry scoop. Do not cross contaminate with scoops used with non-Emeraid foods. Contamination can cause harmful bacterial growth. Standard mixing directions: Mix three parts powder to two parts warm water 122°F (50°C). Stir until smooth.

In the adult animal, crop or stomach volume is estimated at 30 ml/kg (3% body weight). The first feeding is often one-third to one-half of this calculated volume, however the volume and number of feedings must be adjusted based on species and patient condition. Table 1. In adult dogs, EmerAid ® Intensive Care HDN™ Canine feeding recommendations are based on predicted resting energy requirements (RER) a BWEssential and conditionally essential amino acids to meet the needs of the metabolically stressed patient Patient body weight falls midway between the guidelines listed above. Consequently, the recommended volume to feed falls between 293 ml and 346 ml per day. The median value is 320 ml and this number represents the maximum estimated volume to be fed daily. Feedings are cautiously planned for every 4 to 6 hours in this patient, so dividing 320 ml by 4 gives us approximately 80 ml per feeding. It is important to begin feedings cautiously, with 30% to 50% of this estimated volume for the first feeding: ~24 ml to 40 ml. First meal: The EmerAid System for Exotic Animal Critical Care includes EmerAid Carnivore, EmerAid Herbivore, and EmerAid Omnivore. By using these products singly or in combination, many different ill exotic animals can benefit nutritionally. EmerAid Piscivore is the first semi-elemental diet designed for the critically ill fish-eater. Our canine nutrition for critical care is developed by critical care veterinarians and nutritionists. It is specifically designed for the canine physiology and is nutritionally designed to give each debilitated canine the best possible chance of life. a: Depletion of arginine and glutamine is particularly common during periods of starvation and catabolic stress, and supplementation has been shown to improve patient outcome (Labow 2000, Oehler 2002).
