Royal Canin Dalmatian Adult Dry Dog Food, 30-lb bag

Purchased for a Dalmatian who was itching/scratching nonstop. We are feeding this along with a regimen of fresh foods and prescription shampoo/spray. The itching has subsided but I cannot say it’s from the food alone, the first time offered was met with begging for refill of the feed bowl. The kibble is larger sized than expected, it is eaten by other dogs who it was not meant for so they do seem to really like the flavor. I purchased the larger sized bag and will have to wait and see if they continue to like it, as of now it seems to have been a step in the right direction to ease a possible food intolerance our dog was having to another brand.

Smolder loves it. It delivered in 2 days. Could not find this dog food where I live. So will be ordering from you.

This is the best food for Dalmatian's, I mix it with wet food and doggo is V happy.

I really wanted to like this food, truely because it's awful trying to find a food you feel safe feeding a dalmatian given their issues with urate stones but I just really don't like the size of this kibble. Dals aren't a giant breed with "powerful muzzles" and regardless....all savy dal owners float their meals anyways so "encouraged chewing" isn't really something you need when you're giving kibble soup. I don't like that 1. He won't chew this if floated so choking is a concern and 2. You lose the digestive benefits of a greater surface area. This isn't the appropriate size for a dal and I'd like it if RC would consider the fact that the majority if dal owners will feed food in water when I really wanted to like this food, truely because it's awful trying to find a food you feel safe feeding a dalmatian given their issues with urate stones but I just really don't like the size of this kibble.

I will finish the bag I have but I'm exceptionally disappointed because I love the formula and had high hopes. Such a shame. … more

He loves it and it’s good for him and made for him so we are all happy :)

We have tried several recommended brands for our Dalmatian. This is by far the best, and not sold in any stores near me. I was getting low on food, and ordered through Chewy. It came in 2 days!! Free shipping! Great food for our Dal. No more gas, great for her skin. I’m sold!

My dal is a picky eater. He loves this food! It's great because I feel good about what I'm giving him, knowing it is specific to his breed. 4 stars because the price is expensive.

We purchased this dog food because it was breed specific. We have a Dalmatian (this is our 2nd Dalmatian) and the first Dalmatian had kidney issues (crystals, and then stones). We learned a lot over the years with the first Dalmatian, and probably made poor food choices which contributed to his issues, but this time around we are wiser. So we were looking for a food with 21% or less protein (per our Vet and breeder) which is recommended to prevent the kidney issues (that are prevalent in the breed), and a dog food that's low in purine. It's difficult running around trying to find the appropriate dog food for your dog, and having to worry about purine, and protein, and I like the fact that Royal We purchased this dog food because it was breed specific.

We just got the bag of food from Chewy, so our one year old Dalmatian has not been on Royal Canin that long, for us to truly write a fair review, but as other people have posted, we've seen a significant change in his stool, and he really seems to like the food. Time will tell. If you can come back and edit your reviews, I will come back in 12 months, and do an update. … more

Using this kibble as a treat for my Dalmatians. They love it. Ingredients look to be safe for Dals. Know other Dal people who feed this food on a regular basis. Their dogs are doing well on it. Better than other brands that are supposed to be low purine for Dals.

It's only been a week slowly weining our pup onto his adult food, but Drax LOVES this Royal Canin . The pieces are bigger and he picks around the old food to just eat the RC. I've never seen him so excited to eat before! I will update this review as more time passes, but so far we're impressed and I felt like I had to write a review! Thanks RC & Chewy!
