Complete wet food for small-breed puppies aged 2 to 10 months: tender bites in sauce formulated to support natural defenses, cognitive development, and gut microbiota during the rapid growth phase of mini breeds.
Small-breed dogs complete their growth trajectory in a much shorter timeframe than large-breed dogs: between 2 and 10 months, their metabolism operates at a rapid pace, requiring nutrients with very high bioavailability.
During this delicate phase, the immune protection provided by maternal colostrum begins to wane, while the puppy’s immune system is not yet fully developed; at the same time, the immature gastrointestinal tract and small mouth size make a highly digestible, easy-to-chew diet crucial.
Royal Canin Mini Puppy Bites in Gravy addresses these specific needs with a balanced nutritional formula.
The combination of active antioxidants, including vitamins C and E, supports the development of natural defenses during the socialization phase and vaccinations. The targeted inclusion of DHA, an essential omega-3 fatty acid, supports the proper maturation of neurological and brain functions as well as visual acuity, facilitating learning during early training.
Digestive tolerance is promoted by a carefully balanced blend of prebiotics (such as fructo-oligosaccharides and mannan-oligosaccharides) combined with proteins selected for high digestibility, helping to maintain firm stools and reduce fermentation.
The recipe, featuring a velvety sauce and soft, bite-sized pieces, stimulates the sense of smell even in dogs with selective appetites, making it easier for them to grasp the food with their baby teeth and ensuring healthy hydration from the very first months of life.
