Royal Canin Small Puppy Dry Dog Food (formerly Mini Puppy) is tailor-made for puppies up to 10 months old with an expected adult weight of 9-22 lbs. Your small puppy has big nutritional needs. That’s because small breed puppies grow at a more intense rate than larger dogs and are considered adults by 10 months. Their diet not only has to help build and maintain a pup’s body as it grows, it also must provide the right amount of energy, all in a wholesome puppy food formula even a fussy eater will love.
Royal Canin Small Puppy dry dog food is targeted nutrition for your small puppy’s healthy growth and development. It features all the proteins, minerals, and vitamins needed to support your puppy’s short growth period and developing immune system. Small-sized, tasty kibble is designed for tiny teeth and picky appetites while promoting overall health and well-being. And the highly digestible proteins and prebiotic ingredients in this puppy formula are easy on sensitive digestive systems and provide optimal stool quality.

The airtight seal of the bag is damaged, which prevents it to close it and maintain the freshness of the product. We need to move the contents of the bag to another container: (
Hopefully Royal Canin can improve your packaging so that they are in line with the price charged.
Greetings

It is our dog’s daily food. Good tasting I guess. Hope the price can be better in future.

We have been feeding this food to our 4.5 month French Bulldog since we picked him up at 9 weeks old because the breeder was feeding him the same food. 1) our pup has enjoyed this food since day-1. He eats it fully and seems to enjoy it. 2) he’s grown very nicely and looks very healthy without any diarrhea whatsoever. 3) he has no allergies to it, no skin conditions, etc. 4) he’s grown from 8 lbs to 16 pounds and the vet says he looks great overall.
The above said, we feed our other 8 year old (for years) a no-pellet, all freeze dried extremely healthy, expensive diet, and we will be transitioning this pup (he’s already eating it in very small portions) to the same food when he’s 11 months old.
Bottom line, this food has worked very well for our growing pup and I wouldn’t hesitate to use it in the future on a future pup.

A bit pricey…but one of the best there is

Ever since we thought about adopting, we asked the vet about food and one sentence stuck with me. The best thing you can do for your puppy is to give him the best quality food you can afford.
For the 7 months that the puppy lasts, I have given it this food and its coat is beautiful and shiny, its stools are very firm and odorless and it has an enviable energy
The best decision to ensure it has a long and healthy life
