The Royal Canin Size Health Nutrition Small Starter Mother & Babydog Dry Dog Food is the paw-fect choice for your pregnant or nursing furbaby. This food is specially formulated to meet a mother dog’s high energy needs at the end of her pregnancy and while she’s nursing her puppies. Antioxidants like vitamins E and C help to support healthy immune system development. Prebiotics and highly digestible proteins promote a healthy balance of intestinal bacteria for digestion and optimal poop quality. Plus, this kibble can be rehydrated, so you can easily turn the dry food into a porridge-like consistency for both mom and her weaning puppies.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Based on size, age, lifestyle, and breed, each cat or dog has unique nutritional needs. For healthy pets, use our Product Selector to find the right diet for your cat or dog.If your pet is experiencing health issues, please refer to your veterinarian for more information. Your veterinarian will consider multiple factors when recommending an appropriate diet.

My puppy loves this dog food, it was recommended by her breeder and she took to it very easily from day one!! My only concern is that it is now out of stock :(
Excellent puppy food my puppies Love this food, it has small bites.
Quick. Came next day...perfect
and he is a picky eater. Our vet also recommended it.
Great product dogs love it. Was recommended by the breeder
This pellets are small enough for my little Havanese/poodle puppy. She loves it.
My little momma loves this food. It's in super tiny pieces so she can eat a few here and a few there when she needs a boost and her beautiful boys are fat and healthy on day 3.
Came recommended by an online veterinarian. Shocked at the primary ingredient was "chicken biproducts". Switching to Hills Science with primary ingredient is chicken meal.
Simple and easy to order. It was delivered on time. I will continue to use CHEWY
Love this bag due to the size of kibble which is very tiny. I have rescue toothless Yorkies that will only eat this. Due to the 15lb being temporary out of stock, had to look for other options. I was able to find the purina pro plan toy breed puppy which is almost the same size. Will be back to royal when is back in stock.
