Royal Canin Mini Dog Food Royal Canin Mini Dog Food 4kg - Miniature dogs pack plenty of incredible personality into their small frames. Small breed puppies grow very fast. During their intense growth period, they need enough calories and the right nutrients to grow healthily. This is a time when your puppy's bones, muscles, senses and nervous system are developing. It's also the period when the antibodies your puppy got from their mother's colostrum weaken, meaning they need optimal protein to build their own immune system. ROYAL CANIN Mini Puppy is specially formulated to support the nutritional needs of small breed puppies. This formula is suitable for 2 to 10-month-old puppies that should reach an adult weight of 4-10kg. This tailored diet is enriched with omega-3 fatty acids (such as DHA) to help support healthy brain development in puppies. The formula also contains an optimal energy content designed to satisfy the high energy needs of fast-growing, small breed puppies. This formula also contains nutrients such as vitamins C and E that help support the puppies' natural defences. Thanks to a combination of beneficial prebiotics (such as FOS, MOS and beet pulp) and highly digestible proteins, ROYAL CANIN Mini Puppy also helps to support a healthy balance of intestinal microbiota (gut flora) for good digestion. The kibble in ROYAL CANIN Mini Puppy has also been specially designed for your puppy's small jaw, making it easy for them to pick up and chew. It also helps to support dental health, thanks to a mechanical brushing effect as your puppy chews. Did you know that a puppy's nutritional needs change as they grow? By the time your puppy reaches 10 months old, they will need a diet that's specially adapted to meet their nutritional needs as a grown dog. At this stage, you can transition them onto ROYAL CANIN Mini Adult, available either as a dry kibble diet or with wet chunks in gravy.
