Feeding amounts vary depending on your dog's weight and activity level. Refer to the feeding guide on the packaging for specific recommendations. Always adjust the portion size to maintain a healthy weight.

Can I feed this to my puppy?

No, this food is specifically formulated for adult small breed dogs. Puppies have different nutritional needs. Consult your veterinarian for appropriate puppy food options.

Is this food suitable for dogs with allergies?

Royal Canin offers various formulas to address sensitivities. If your dog has allergies, consult your veterinarian to determine if this formula is appropriate, or if a specialized diet is needed.

How does this food support dental health?

The kibble's shape and texture promote mechanical brushing, which helps to reduce tartar buildup. Additionally, a calcium binder limits the availability of salivary calcium, delaying dental plaque calcification.
