About Royal Canin Gastrointestinal Health For Dogs

Royal Canin, incredible in every detail. Tailored nutritional solutions for gastrointestinal health.
Acute or chronic?  If your Veterinarian thinks your pet has a gastrointestinal issue, they may classify it as acute or chronic.  Acute conditions appear suddenly and deteriorate rapidly.  Chronic conditions develop over time and may worsen gradually.

Worried About Your Dog’s Digestion?

Your dog’s gastrointestinal (GI) system helps support the rest of the body by properly digesting food and making sure to extract the nutrients needed for overall health. Your veterinarian is the expert on your dog, so you should always consult with this trusted advisor to find the best gastrointestinal health solutions and management options for your pet.

Know Your Dog’s GI System

  1. Stomach: the first part of the GI tract, where inflamation may lead to vomitting.
  2. Small Intestine and Pancreas: where the small intestine is responsible for absorption of nutrients within the diet and the pancreas aids in digestion; inflamation of the pancreas may be cause by a high fat diet or treats.
  3. Large Colon (Tranverse): which is responsible for forming stool.
  4. Large Colon (Descending): which is responsible for forming stool; any alteration to this process may lead to constipation or diarrhea.
  5. Rectum: where stool leaves the body

How Nutrition Can Help

Your veterinarian may recommend a Royal Canin GI formula that is

Easily digestible to help reduce the load on the gastrointestinal tract

Formulated with omega-3 fatty acids, EPA, and DHA to aid digestive health and antioxidants to support a healthy immune system

Highly palatable to encourage eating, even when appetite is decreased due to gastrointestinal upset

Balanced for good digestion, with a blend of fibers and prebiotics to support digestive health

Find The Perfect Balance

With a dry and wet feeding routine, dry food supports positive oral health while wet food supports healthy hydration.

Small kibble with big power!

My husky shepherd mix has had a bad tummy since the day we got him. I’ve tried everything possible, probiotics, pumpkin, changing food and nothing worked until this

My husky shepherd mix has had a bad tummy since the day we got him. I’ve tried everything possible, probiotics, pumpkin, changing food and nothing worked until this kibble. Whatever is in it, set his tummy right and he finally has formed stools. Yayyyy!!!

Dog Loves the Food

I would have given it 5 stars but the food is too expensive. I wish I could keep my dog in it but just can’t afford it.

Our puppy loves it!

Our puppy’s veterinarian prescribed this for her when she developed tummy issues. She loves the food and the tummy problem is resolved. I just wish it wasn’t so
