Royal Canin Mother & Babydog Maxi Starter Dry Dog Food 4kg

Newborn puppies have distinct nutritional requirements that are essential for the development of their senses and nervous systems. Feeding growing puppies is a challenging task that can affect the metabolism of your large dog. During the weaning period, when the litter is transitioning to solid food, your dog and her nursing puppies require a tailored diet to meet their unique nutritional needs.

ROYAL CANIN® Maxi Starter Mother & Babydog is specifically formulated to support the nutritional needs of new mothers and their puppies. This formula is suitable for large adult dogs weighing between 26 and 44kg and weaning puppies up to 2 months old. Large dogs often have a big litter, sometimes more than 10 puppies, which is very demanding on their metabolism. This tailored diet is adapted to meet your large dog's high-energy needs at the end of gestation and during lactation. It also supports the healthy development of nursing puppies.

The formula contains essential nutrients such as vitamins C and E to help support natural defences. Moreover, the combination of beneficial prebiotics, such as MOS, and highly digestible proteins helps maintain a healthy balance of intestinal microbiota (gut flora) for proper digestion. Additionally, this formula is enriched with Omega-3 fatty acids, including DHA, which supports the healthy brain development of young puppies.

The kibble in ROYAL CANIN® Maxi Starter Mother & Babydog is easy to rehydrate with water, giving it an appetising porridge texture that's ideal for weaning puppies. It's crucial to note that a puppy's nutritional needs change as they grow. In just 8 weeks, your puppies will require a diet that's specifically adapted to their nutritional needs during the next growth phase. At this stage, you can transition them to ROYAL CANIN® Maxi Puppy, available either as a dry kibble diet or with wet chunks in gravy.
