Reduces drive behavior
When a dog food ingredient is said to "reduce urges", it means that this ingredient can help to reduce certain instinctive or hormonal behaviors in your dog. Instinctual behaviors often refer to activities associated with reproductive urges (such as marking territory or seeking a mate), aggression or excessive energy.
The idea behind such ingredients is that certain nutrients, herbs or additives can have a calming effect on your dog or influence the hormonal system in such a way that the dog becomes more balanced. However, it is important to note that the effectiveness of such ingredients can vary from dog to dog and that they are not a substitute for good education and training.
