DID YOU KNOW EVERY SIZE OF PUPPY HAS THEIR OWN SPECIFIC NEEDS?
A Dachshund reaches adult-hood at 10 months, while a Great Dane puppy is still growing and developing for 22 months.
As your puppy develops, every tiny detail makes an enormous difference to their development. It’s vital to understand your puppy’s needs at every stage of growth. That’s why Royal Canin pays particular attention to ensure every bite is packed with tailored nutrients that are vital to support their delicate digestive and immune systems, and to help them build up strength.
ROYAL CANIN® Junior Giant is formulated for the second growth phase of Giant puppies with a projected adult weight over 45kg. From 8 to 18-24 months old.
2ND GROWTH PHASE: MUSCLE DEVELOPMENT
Adapted energy, proteins, vitamins & minerals to support their intense growth period
IMMUNE SYSTEM SUPPORT
Immune system support thanks to specially selected antioxidants
BONE & JOINT SUPPORT
Adapted levels of omega 3's, glucosamine & chondroitin to support healthy development of bones and joints in Giant breed puppies.
ADAPTED KIBBLE SIZE
2nd growth phase: muscle development
An adapted protein and L-Carnitine content to help support muscle development in giant breed puppies during the second growth phase from 8 months old.
Adapted kibble size – easy to chew
Jaw size also depends on the dog’s adult size. A medium breed sized kibble can generate chewing issue for small breed dogs and waste issues for giant breed dogs.
Highly digestible composition
Combination of nutrients with high quality protein (L.I.P.*) and prebiotics (FOS) to support digestive health and balance of intestinal flora.
Immune system support
Royal Canin Puppy helps support your puppy’s natural defences thanks to a complex of antioxidants including vitamin E.
Bone & joint support
Contributes to good bone mineralisation in giant breed puppies thanks to a balanced intake of energy and minerals (calcium and phosphorus ), thus supporting one consolidation and joints.
