Complete dry food for small-breed dogs with chronic kidney disease: low in phosphorus, with a specialized flavor profile and custom-formulated kibble.
Chronic kidney disease is a complex condition that requires strict nutritional management to slow its progression and preserve the animal’s quality of life.
Small-breed dogs with kidney problems often experience loss of appetite, nausea, and food refusal. Royal Canin Renal Small Dog addresses this challenge by combining a therapeutic nutritional balance with high palatability. The reduced phosphorus content is essential for supporting impaired kidneys, while the selection of highly digestible proteins prevents toxic nitrogen buildup in the blood.
The shape, texture, and size of the kibble are tailored to the skeletal structure and dentition of small dogs, promoting chewing. The high energy concentration also allows daily caloric needs to be met with smaller portions, protecting the dog from unintentional weight loss.
