Suitable for dogs over 10 months old, ROYAL CANIN® Pug Adult is specially formulated with all the unique nutritional needs of your adult Pug in mind.
The Pug's short hair really shows off its folded skin, particularly around the face. Because the Pug's skin is folded, and the skin inside the folds can become warm humid, it's important that your dog's diet helps to support the health of its skin. ROYAL CANIN® Pug Adult's exclusive formula helps to support the skin's “barrier” role, as well as overall skin health – thanks mainly to the inclusion of omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA. The Pug breed is certainly a lot of dog in a small space! They have a compact form and a thick-set, square-like shape.
In order to maintain your Pug's muscle mass and definition, it needs gentle exercise in small doses. Your Pug's physical appearance can also benefit from a diet that contains particular nutrients. That's why ROYAL CANIN® Pug Adult contains a balance of nutrients that not only help to support your Pug's muscle tone, but that also help to maintain an ideal weight.
What's more, the kibble in ROYAL CANIN® Pug Adult is tailor-made exclusively for the Pug breed. Pugs have very specific features: a large head and a body with short, square muscles. Its jaws and flat face can make it difficult for it to pick up its food; Pugs also have a tendency to swallow their food without chewing it first. The shape and size of the kibble in ROYAL CANIN® Pug Adult is specifically designed to make it easier for your Pug to pick up. The adapted kibble also encourages your dog to chew it before swallowing.

Formulated for Pugs
ROYAL CANIN® Pug Adult Dry Dog Food is designed exclusively for pure breed Pugs over 10-months of age.
Healthy skin: Appropriate food plays an important part in maintaining the quality of the skin and coat. ROYAL CANIN® Pug Adult Dry Dog Food helps support the skin's role as a barrier with a tailored nutrient profile, and helps maintain skin and coat health with added EPA and DHA.
Muscle tone: This formula contains L-Carnitine and helps maintain muscle tone with an adapted protein content.
Ideal weight: Excess weight gain can affect the health of Pugs. A balanced meal is therefore necessary for their health. This formula helps maintain an ideal weight with adapted nutrients.
Exclusive Kibble: Pugs have a large, round head with a short square muzzle. Their characteristic jaw and very thick lips make it difficult to pick up food. ROYAL CANIN® Pug Adult Dry Dog Food features a cloverleaf-shaped kibble designed to make it easier for Pugs to pick up and encourages them to chew.
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.

"My girl loves it. "
Posted byHelen Jeffreyon2nd Oct 2023My girl loves it, the kibble is easy for her to eat even though she is almost toothless. Her coat has become softer and shinier.
