Royal Canin German Shepherd Dry Dog Food Information
Description
Your German Shepherd has specific needs. The Breed Health Nutrition range from Royal Canin is developed to meet the needs and particularities of each breed, and your German Shepherd is no exception.
The 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:
- Digestive System: German Shepherd tends to be more sensitive to digestive upset than other breeds. Our diet is made with highly digestible protein sources, like egg and soy.
- Sensitive Skin: German Shepherd 24 is formulated with a complex of B vitamins, amino acids, and chelated minerals to support the puppy’s alkaline skin.
- Immunity Booster: To support tnatural defences Royal Canin have added vitamins E & C, and mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS) to help stimulate antibody production.
- Joint Heath: Large breeds like the German Shepherd grow quickly and their active lifestyles can place stress on developing joints. Royal Canin have added glucosamine and chondroitin to help support growing bones.

Extremely grateful for the super-fast delivery - my 7-yr-old German Shepherd loves this product, her health is always good and she looks great. A faithful companion is worth every cent it costs to give them good nutrition.
