The Golden Retriever has a straight muzzle and teeth that meet in a scissors bite. The kibble size, shape and texture of the GOLDEN RETRIEVER ADULT formula is designed specifically for this breed and encourages him to chew.

The skin and coat reflect the dog’s state of health. An appropriate food is important in maintaining healthy skin and coat. The GOLDEN RETRIEVER ADULT formula helps support the skin’s role as a barrier with an exclusive complex of nutrients and helps maintain skin and coat health (EPA and DHA).

Golden Retrievers can be prone to cardiac sensitivity. The GOLDEN RETRIEVER ADULT formula contains specific nutrients to help support healthy cardiac function: taurine, EPA and DHA.

Excess weight gain can affect the health of Golden Retrievers, and therefore an appropriately balanced food is necessary for their well-being. GOLDEN RETRIEVER ADULT helps maintain the breed’s ideal weight with an appropriate calorie and fat content.

Golden Retrievers are well-known for their happy personalities and luxurious coats. With targeted nutrients, GOLDEN RETRIEVER ADULT helps to promote an ideal body condition and strengthen skin, while the tailored kibble helps satisfy appetite.

Vet Recommended

As a practicing small animal veterinarian, I recommend Royal Canin breed specific diets to my clients looking for personalized nutrition for their pets. I personally feed my two Golden Retrievers the Golden Retriever Adult formula. I've found that it keeps my dogs' coats beautiful while managing their caloric intake. They love it, tolerate it well, and I am happy with Royal Canin's commitment to science and quality.

I have been giving my boy this food since he was a puppy and now I can’t find it any where! All the pet stores say that they are not getting the product from your company. I’m on 3 months of searching for my boys food. This is great dog food for my Golden, but now I have to change his food. Please help me understand why this is happing?

Good food for my Golden

My golden digest good some of the time but the chunks are just too big and occasionally will throw-up as it gets caught in the throat. Really these are the largest chunks out there, I would like to see, as others have mentioned the option for smaller pieces as my golden is on the smaller end of the spectrum. What I am doing now, is smashing the food up in a bag with a hammer to breakdown into bite size pieces. but this is a pain in the butt sometimes.
