Royal Canin Dog Food Maxi Starter

Royal Canin Maxi Starter

Description

Royal Canin Maxi Starter is a complete dry dog food specially formulated to support large-breed bitches (26–44 kg adult size) and their puppies during critical early life stages — late pregnancy, birth, lactation, and the transition from mother’s milk to solid food (weaning up to approximately 2 months old).

🐾 Who It’s For

• Large-breed pregnant or nursing mothers — provides tailored nutrition to meet increased energy and nutritional demands during gestation and lactation.

• Weaning puppies (up to ~2 months) — ideal transitional food as pups move from milk to solid eating.

🍽️ Key Features

✔ Complete nutritional support: Formulated to provide balanced nutrients for both the mother dog’s health and her puppies’ development.
✔ Start Complex: Includes a blend of nutrients similar to those in mother’s milk to help support digestive health and natural immune defenses in young puppies.
✔ Easy rehydration: The kibble can be mixed with water to create a porridge-like texture that’s highly palatable and easier for puppies to eat during weaning.
✔ High energy content: Nutrient and calorie density supports the high energy needs of lactating mothers and rapidly growing puppies.
✔ Digestive support: Prebiotics and highly digestible proteins help promote a healthy gut microbiome in both mothers and puppies.

🧬 Typical Ingredients

Royal Canin Maxi Starter’s formula typically includes high-quality ingredients such as rice, dehydrated poultry protein, animal fats, hydrolysed proteins, beet pulp, soya oil, fish oil, fibres and prebiotics to support digestion and overall health.
