Nutrition is essential for skin and coat health – that's why Royal Canin Maltese Adult contains specially adapted nutrients – including essential omega-3 fatty acids – to keep your Maltese dog's coat sleek and beautiful.

They require a palatable diet, which is why Royal Canin Maltese Adult helps satisfy even the fussiest of appetites, thanks to a combination of exceptional flavours that your dog won't be able to resist! What's more, Royal Canin Maltese Adult helps reduce faecal smell and volume because its formula contains nutrients that help to support your dog's digestive health.The Maltese breed has a fine jaw set with strong, wide teeth.

Key Benefits:
- Coat health. Maltese dogs requires substantial grooming to maintain their silky coat and prevent matting. This breed is also genetically predisposed to skin allergies caused by environmental allergens such as pollen. Borage oil and biotin in our food help reveal and maintain the coat’s softness and sheen, and Omega 3 fatty acids (EPA & DHA) help reduce skin inflammation.
- Stool volume and odour reduction. Highly digestible ingredients, prebiotics and fibres help reduce the volume and odour of their stools. This helps keep your home fresh and the garden clean.
- Satisfies fussy appetites. This diet formula satisfies the fussiest of appetites thanks to a combination of exceptional aromas and a unique texture.
- Exclusive kibble design. The Maltese has a small snout and jaw with small teeth. This breed has a tendency to develop dental disease and needs extra support to help maintain oral health and hygiene. Royal Canin Maltese diet binds plaque and helps prevent it from forming hard tartar on the teeth.

Why Pure Breed Dogs Need Tailored Nutrition
From their personalities to their distinctive physiologies, pure breed dogs have unique characteristics that make them sought-after and beloved companions. When choosing a diet for your pet, it's important to keep in mind the unique characteristics of their breed including:
Face and Jaw: All dogs fall into two basic jaw types: Brachycephalic or Mesocephalic. Breeds with short, broad muzzles (like Bulldogs) are examples of a brachycephalic jaw. Breeds with a longer muzzle (like Labrador Retrievers) are examples of mesocephalic breeds. The jaw type, and even biting patterns can affect how a breed picks up kibble. All ROYAL CANIN® breed diets feature a tailor-made kibble shape to meet their unique needs.
Skin Types: The skin's most important function is to serve as a barrier of protection - but not all breeds have the same skin type. From wrinkled and folded (which traps heat and moisture) to sensitive or water resistant, precise levels of key nutrients are included in ROYAL CANIN® breed diets to help support their unique skin health needs.
Distinctive Coats: There's more to a coat than meets the eye. From the colour and texture to undercoats, each pure breed dog has a unique coat with unique needs which are catered for with ROYAL CANIN® breed diets.

"Great dry food!"
Posted byJulia Heeon26th Jan 2022My malteses loved it. They have a very fussy appetite but love this one. Their poop is smaller and almost not smelly at all. Recommend. I just wish they had a bigger pack.
