Very good product
As per usual, this Royal Canin food is amazing. Great for mums while they feed and as a first solid food for puppies. This has made buying separate bags for pregnancy and for the puppies completely obsolete. This really is an all-in-one

Super!
Four weeks ago, I took in a heavily pregnant dog (only 9 months old herself) from an animal rescue. She had significant issues with her milk, so I had to start supplementing very early. The little ones are tolerating the food perfectly. They’re growing and thriving beautifully.

Breeding Staffordshire Bull Terriers
As a rearing food and for the regeneration of the mother dog, this is certainly the best food on the market. Even malnourished dogs (from animal rescue, etc.) tolerate it very well and recover astonishingly quickly. I’ve been breeding for 10 years and haven’t found a better rearing food for the puppies yet.

They love it
My puppies really like these treats, and even though they are different breeds and therefore different sizes, they still prefer them!

Fantastic product. I breed Welsh Corgis and have been feeding them this fantastic product from as early as 25 days old (the day the mother hands them over to me).

Great food
this is great for my jack Russell , this is the second time I have used this when she is about to have her pups , this time I went for the medium one because you got 12.5kg , in the small type you only get 8.5kg but the small and medium kibble are the same size and have the same things in it
so I would buy the medium from now on as you are getting a 3.5KG extra and that SAVES ABOUT £15

Great Product for my Springer Spaniel and her Pups
I have fed both my Springers on the Royal Canin Medium brand since we got them as pups so thought i would use the Starter when my female got pregnant. The pups (and mum) love the product and they pups have had no problems with the food starting on it from 4 weeks old (with the puppy milk). I would recommend this product.
