Suitable for Pugs up to 10 months old, ROYAL CANIN® Pug Puppy is specially formulated with all the nutritional needs of your puppy in mind.
During this key growth period, your puppy's immune system develops gradually. ROYAL CANIN® Pug Puppy contains a complex of antioxidants that helps to support its natural defences.
ROYAL CANIN® Pug Puppy's exclusive formula contains a specific complex and the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA to help nourish and support the skin's barrier role, this is important for optimal maintenance of your puppy's healthy skin.What's more, ROYAL CANIN® Pug Puppy is formulated with nutrients specifically selected for their very high quality protein (L.I.P.) and prebiotics (FOS) to support your young pug's digestive health.
The kibble in ROYAL CANIN® Pug Puppy is tailor-made exclusively for the Pug breed. The shape of the Pug's jaw and its thick lips can make it quite difficult for it to pick up its food. That's why the shape and size of the kibble in this formula is specially designed to make it easy for your dog to pick it up. The adapted kibble also encourages your puppy to chew thoroughly 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.
