Royal Canin Chihuahua Dry Dog Food Information
Every breed is made different. The Breed Health Nutrition range from Royal Canin is developed to meet the needs and particularities of each breed, and your Chihuahua is no exception. The whole Breed Health Nutrition range benefits from the latest progress of Royal Canin’s research: selection of the best protein sources, unique ingredients and flavours, and tailor-made kibbles designed in their shape, texture and size to fit both different jaws and the dog’s age.
Key Benefits:
- Fussy Appetite: The Chihuahua's sense of smell is less developed than that of a larger breed dog. Intense flavours and aromas stimulate even the most delicate appetite.
- Heart Health: Royal Canin have combined L-carnitine, modified sodium levels and synergistic antioxidants for improved cardiac function supporting the long-life span of the Chihuahua.
- Tartar Reduction: Sodium tripolyphosphate and a specialized kibble create a "brushing" effect helping to reduce plaque and tartar.
- Stool Odour Reduction: Because of its small size, the Chihuahua is the ideal indoor dog and can live in smaller homes or apartments. Royal Canin include highly digestible proteins to help limit the amount and odour of stools.
Made Specifically For: Adult and mature Chihuahuas over 8 months old

Your Dog is Unique!
Just like humans every dog is different when it comes to their dietary needs, this means your pets feeding requirements will vary depending on their breed, environment, age and activity. The below table and the information on the bag is to be used as a starting point, it is important to monitor your dogs weight and adjust their rations as needed.
As it takes time for your dogs digestive system to adapt to the different nutrient levels in a new food it is important to transition your dog correctly from one food to the next to reduce the chance of your pet having an upset stomach. We suggest you take 7 days to transition your dog from the old food to the new food. Start with the majority of the old food and a small amount of the new food on day one and slowly increase the proportion of the new food while decreasing the old food until you are feeding 100% of the new food on day 7.
We also recommend feeding your dog twice daily and ensure that your dog always has fresh, clean water available to drink.

I have my 5 Chihuahuas on this food, ages ranging from 2yrs to 9yrs and have tailored with my vet's help the Royal Canin Adult Chihuahua biscuits amount with their treats to keep them at a healthy body weight. They are happy on it and their coats are remarkably softer and shinier after changing to this food.
Bottom Line
Yes, I'd recommend this product to a friend
