Royal Canin Size Health Nutrition Small Aging 12+ Dry Dog Food, 2.5 lb bag

I have a senior cairn terrier dog and she had started to dislike her food, so I was looking at other high quality dog foods that are available. I purchased this one - intrigued by the concept of special formulations for breeds. They don't have a cairn terrier breed specific one that I could find, nut senior small dog definitely also fits the bill. My dog can be picky and she enjoys this. She lost a couple of teeth in an accident a year or so ago (bottom teeth) and doesn't seem to have any issues eating this at all. She also doesn't lay in front of her bowl staring at it, hoping it will suddenly change into salmon (she gets salmon in the mornings). That's what she had started to do with her last kibble.In addition to that, I've noticed she seems to have more energy. Noticeably more. Nothing else has really changed... besides her being on her second bag of this food (I waited to write the review).

Only kibble my senior jrt would eat. He has now crossed over. I trust RC products. My two senior rescues are now eating the xsmall 12+. Again, only kibble they will eat. And they have very few teeth left!! They eat lots of soft, fresh home cooking and veggies, but i can hear the munching.

My dog has lost weight and has better over energy coat and health. I believe I’m saving money in the long run compared to the other brands I was using.

I'm guessing it tastes good because my dog ate it but I can't vouch for the flavor or the ingredients. On the other hand, Royal Canin appears to be a good and reputable brand. My dog, a 13 year-old poodle-terrier mix, eats it up happily.

Great shape great quality, but very expensive. Definitely go with the 12 lb bag for the cheaper price

My 15 year old Chihuahua has congestive heart failure and Cushing's disease. After we got him on medication I took him in for a four week follow up and his kidney enzymes were off. So I was told to change his food to a type that would be good for his kidneys. I researched and researched and finally landed on this product. I would never ever have believed that a dog food could make such a difference for a dog. My Chihuahua has been on this diet for about two months. About two weeks ago I noticed that he is much more energetic and enthusiastic. He's doing little things like jumping over the door frame to get into the house rather then slowly stepping over it. He gets all waggy and happy when I'm petting him and talking nonsense to him .. whereas before he was just a little waggy. He wants to go on his walks again and he has some pep in his step. Don't get me wrong, he's still a 15 year old dog with congestive heart failure, but the difference in his energy and happiness is noticeable since we changed his diet to this product.

Godd

Before I got my dog, I was asking my friends what great dry dog food do they recommend. My friend, who's worked in Vet clinics and the like recommended me this brand Royal Canin. Royal Canin has many different nutrition profiles for all kinds of dogs. My dog was 12 years old when I adopted her and I know that senior dogs have special nutritional needs that pertain to aging. Surprisingly, I've had a difficult time finding this dog food in-person, but thanks to Amazon I was able to find this brand online.The kibbles are relatively small and, even with my dog's small amount of teeth, she is able to eat the kibble with ease and no bleeding (from gums). I mix Royal Canin with a spoon of wet food and add water. Even though she can eat dry kibble, I do like to add some water to soften it.The price is reasonable for what you get. Please do your dog a favor and buy this food! Royal Canin has a bunch of profiles for age and size of your dog. This dog food is definitely worth it.
