ROYAL CANIN – Giant Junior

The growth cycle of a giant dog is very sensitive and needs careful control. Dogs who will weigh more than 45 kg in adulthood have different and particular nutritional needs as they grow. Royal Canin specially formulated a kibble targeted at the giant junior between 8 months and 18 – 24 months old. The formula is adapted to suit their growth at this specific age. Royal Canin Giant Junior promotes strong muscles and healthy joints, with L.I.P proteins for high digestibility.

Puppies of giant dog breeds grow in two stages, with muscle growth occurring mainly in the second phase from 8 to 18/24 months of age. Giant dog breeds shouldn’t grow too fast, as this can have a negative impact on the healthy development of their outsized morphology.

Why should I buy this product?
The kibble of Royal Canin Giant Junior was formulated to help junior giants in their second growth stage to develop healthy, strong muscles. The kibble is highly palatable and contains high-quality protein, energy and balanced levels of calcium and phosphorus for joints and bone consolidation. Royal Canin Giant Junior also includes manno-oligosaccharides for better immunity.

The kibble’s shape, size, and consistency of Royal Canin Giant Junior encourage intensive chewing and may thus slow down food intake. It also promotes tooth and mouth hygiene. Prebiotics such as dried beet shavings and fructo and mannan oligosaccharides foster a balanced gut flora; psyllium supports the digestion. A measured supply of high-quality L.I.P. proteins together with an increased L-carnitine content (300 mg/kg) promotes harmonious muscle growth. Chondroitin sulphate and glucosamine together with EPA and DHA from fish oil support bone and cartilage health. A patented antioxidant complex (taurine, lutein, vitamins C and E) contributes to active cell protection.
