From a nutritional perspective, it's very important that your mini breed dog and its young pups eat food that's specifically tailored to their unique nutritional requirements. That's why Royal Canin Mini Starter Mother & Babydog provides everything needed for small breed dogs weighing up to 10 kg, as well as for their weaning puppies up to 2 months old. This formula is built around Royal Canin's exclusive Start Complex — a combination of nutritional elements found in mother's milk, reinforced with specific nutrients that contribute to supporting the puppies' digestive health and natural defences. The nutritional profile is adapted to the mother's high energy requirements at the critical period during the end of gestation and the beginning of lactation. The kibble is also easy to rehydrate to a porridge-like consistency, which is not only very palatable for the mother, but also helps puppies transition smoothly from mother's milk to solid food. Available in a 1 kg bag.
