Couldn't Ask For Better

I have 3 dogs, all small breed - 2 pekingese and a chihuahua. I have tried every single brand of food on the market, and then some. I started doing my own research and loved the research and quality control that goes behind every bag or can of Royal Canin food. I switched my crew over 6 months ago and couldn't be happier. Their coats are shiney and soft, their breath is improved and their poops are perfect! If I make any changes to my Small Breed Kibble/Adult Wet food combo, they get digestive upset. Love that my guys do so well. Thank you Royal Canin

Tasty goodness

I wanted to get a good quality dog food for my Pomeranian/chihuahua mix. He's a rescue dog, so he didn't have the best start and was 8 months old when I rescued him in Oct 2015. I had heard what a good brand Royal Canin is, so I purchased the smaller bag of small breed since Oliver is the only pet and doesn't eat massive amounts of food. He's happy, healthy, and full of energy. I feel like Royal Canin contributes to this.

Trust nothing else

Our Abby has never eaten anything else. As a pet owner with past veterinary employment history, I would never trust the fly by night pet foods. Royal Canin is tried and true!

Awesome food !!!

My Mattie has been on this dog food for about a year and a half. She has allergies and takes allergy shots. This is the dog food she has to eat due to ingredients. And she loves it.

Dogs love it!!

Use this as it settles well with my dachshund and it is S/O so I don't worry about bladder or kidney problems.

Beautiful Coat!

I started using Royal Canin Small Breed Adult dry food over 2 months ago for my pomeranian and since switching from Purina Pro Plan - I have noticed a huge difference in his coat. The coat is thicker and more luxurious than it was previously. Also, he has not been scratching since being on this food (which had been everyday - even with flea meds and allergy pills). I don't have to use the allergy pills anymore but still keep him on a flea and tick product from my vet. I am very happy we decided to pay a little more for a premium dog food.

Great food

I have been using this food for both my small dogs now for over a year and I have had great results; both dogs love the food and maintain great body condition. I love that this food has the s/o index; I am always concerned about bladder stones and I love having a food that aids in preventing a form of crystals from developing.
