This is only a guide. Optimal feeding amounts may vary according to your pet's temperament, activity level and environment. If you have any questions regarding your pet's health, please contact your veterinarian.
We recommend at least a 7 day transition before you begin feeding the new food exclusively. Start by mixing 75% of the old diet with 25% of the new diet on Day 1 and Day 2. On Day 3 and Day 4, mix 50% of the old diet with 50% of the new diet. On Day 5 and Day 6, mix 25% of the old diet with 75% of the new diet. On the 7th day, you can feed the new food exclusively. This allows your pet’s digestive system to smoothly adapt to the new food.
How are Royal Canin diets preserved?
All of our dry diets are preserved naturally with mixed tocopherols, citric acid, and rosemary extract. Our canned diets are naturally preserved and sterilized during the cooking and canning process.
Where do the ingredients in Royal Canin diets come from?
We select our ingredients based on multiple factors, including the supplier’s compliance with our quality and food safety requirements, consistent availability, and on the nutrients required to meet the dietary needs of the pet.Royal Canin is making strides towards sustainability by attempting to obtain sources of raw materials as close to each manufacturing facility as possible. In some cases, we use international suppliers, because only those suppliers can offer raw materials that comply with our quality and food safety standards.
Why do some Royal Canin diets contain by-products?
Royal Canin chooses ingredients because they deliver high-quality nutrients that support our customized pet food formulas. Using chicken by-product meal instead of chicken meal for example will allow Royal Canin to maintain its highly customized nutrient standards while achieving a more secure and sustainable supply.
Why do some Royal Canin diets contain grains?
Grains can be a healthy part of any cat or dog’s diet. As always, we focus on the nutrients each ingredient provides and grains can provide many important nutrients.

Our Quality and Food Safety systems are state-of-the-art and we continue to invest heavily in new technology to make sure they remain that way.* We put our suppliers through a rigorous selection process that doesn’t end with our first purchase.* We monitor every load delivered to our plants to verify the safety and quality of the ingredients we use to make pet food.* We perform tests on finished pet foods before they are shipped to our customers.* We manufacture every pet food we sell, in plants that we own; our plants are ISO 9001:2008 certified for Quality Management and ISO 22000 certified for Food Safety.

I was feeding my puppy the "small breed" version of this food, but noticed he needed to poo quite often. I upgraded to medium breed (his target adult weight is on the border of small/medium) and now he has really healthy, regular motions! Sorry for the TMI, I figure dog owners are curious. My vet only recommends Royal Canin and there's definitely a reason. I had tried to switch to the local grocery store brand (for cost effectiveness etc) but it wasn't really agreeing with my frenchie puppy.

My puppy loves this food, I have tried other brands with her but this is the only food in which she will clean her bowl at mealtime. She is happy, healthy, her coat looks beautiful, and she has good solid poops! The best food for your dog is the one your dog wants to eat!! This one is a keeper for sure!

What I love about this food is that it doesn’t smell terrible like a lot of other dog foods. I was feeding my dog blue buffalo and it was making her tunny really upset, her tummy issues went away when we swapped to this food

I’ve had my Basset Hound puppy on Royal Canin GI food since we got her at age 4 weeks. She just turned 3 months and has been on Royal Canin puppy chow for several weeks. She loves it. It must taste really good because my 2 1/2 yr old finnicky eater has to have a bit every 4 hrs when we feed the pup. Her coat is so shiny everyone comments on it. Her vet says she’s super healthy - skin, gums, teeth, etc. would highly recommend to all! We we’ll graduate her to Royal Canin adult dry food when she’s a year old. Give this puppy chow a try! Your pup will love it & you’ll love how healthy your pup will be!

our vet recommended this brand, we switch from blue buffalo to royal canin because he kept having the occasional diarrhea and so far our pup is loving it and we can defiantly see improvement in his bowl movement.

So my puppy was on this Royal Canin before i got him from the pet shop and we continued another 17lb bag before I switched to a four star reviewed one, Go-Fit. Go fit is the one I chose from the website Dogfoodadvisor which got a way better review than Royal. But my now four month old golden retriever had a hard time transitioning from Royal to Go-fit, sometimes when he is really starving he would finish the half and half mixed bowl. But most of the time, he sniffed the bowl (no matter what the ratio is) and walked away. He would not eat until I replace the bowl with full Royal Canin. So I have to get back on this one. Cant say if he really likes it or he is just used to his early puppy food So my puppy was on this Royal Canin before i got him from the pet shop and we continued another 17lb bag before I switched to a four star reviewed one, Go-Fit.

Anyways, if my dog loves it, I will be happy to refill!!!! … more

My puppies both love this food. They eat it up with gusto, I know that it is a good choice for their health. Royal Canin is one of the few unproblematic foods on the market. It is definitely worth the price!
