Royal Canin Maxi Puppy 4kg

Royal Canin Maxi Junior is a complete diet for Pups and Young dogs of Large Breeds (26 - 44 kg) from 1 month to 18 months of age.

Maxi Breeds

The term 'Maxi' refers to dogs whose adult weight is between 26kg and 45kg.

Maxi-sized dogs are typically faithful and affectionate, making ideal pets. They were traditionally treasured for their incredible working abilities, and are superb at herding, tracking, rescue and assistance.

As Maxi dogs are particularly prone to sensitive digestion, Royal Canin Maxi formulas contain ingredients such as prebiotics to help maintain a healthy digestive system. Due to their large body mass, Maxi dogs are also susceptible to joint problems, so Royal Canin Maxi food includes glucosamine and chondroitin to help support mobility throughout life.

Examples of Maxi breeds

Afghan Hound, Borzoi, Greyhound, English Pointer, German Short Haired Pointer, Weimaraner, Clumber Spaniel, Old English Sheep Dog, Belgian Shepherd, Doberman, Giant Schnauzer.

Royal Canin Maxi Junior

During their growth period, large breed puppies multiply their birth weight 70-90 times.They also need 14 to 18 months to fully develop. This longer growth period involves higher risks of bone or joint cartilage disorders.Large breed puppies require specifically adapted nutrition during their unique long growth cycle. Feeding them a diet that is too high in energy can accelerate growth without allowing enough time for proper bone and skeletal development. They need a diet with a controlled amount of energy to limit rapid weight gain, with fructo-oligosaccharides (chicory extract) for optimal digestion and with balanced levels of calcium and phosphorus to promote optimal skeletal development.

Maxi Junior is formulated to meet the specific needs of large breeds during the growth phase, containing high-quality animal protein (chicken, turkey, fish, egg, casein). The balanced mix of essential fatty acids promotes a thick, shiny coat, while the fibre content ensures healthy digestive functions. Maxi Junior is ideally sized to fit the mouths of large-breed puppies.
