Complete dry food for giant-breed puppies from 8 to 18/24 months: specialized nutrition for muscle development, advanced joint support, and digestive health.
Giant-breed dogs have an exceptionally long growth period that is divided into two distinct physical phases. After 8 months, once the first stage of skeletal development is complete, the puppy enters the Junior phase, during which the body focuses its energy on building and defining muscle mass.
Royal Canin Giant Junior provides the ideal support for this delicate transition. The adapted protein content facilitates the development of strong, toned muscles, while the carefully balanced combination of calcium, phosphorus, glucosamine, and chondroitin ensures that the robust bone structure and joints can support the dog’s adult weight without trauma or strain.
The formula protects the digestive system thanks to highly digestible L.I.P. proteins and prebiotics (FOS and MOS) to promote a balanced gut flora and improve stool consistency. The large size of the kibble prevents gulping and encourages active chewing.
