Royal Canin X-Small Aging +12 Dry Dog Food anticipates the effects of time on the cells and vital organs of the older small breed dog. Even though small breed dogs typically live longer than large breeds, they experience the same digestive and cardiac difficulties that affect all dogs, large or small, as they age. But you can help your small breed dog by feeding him/her some of Royal Canin X-Small Aging +12 Dry Dog Food. It has superior digestibility, with high quality protein sources and the correct balance of fibers, along with complete balanced nutrition. Optimal levels of Vitamin E and C may help inhibit cellular deterioration, another result of aging. Special flavors stimulate a delicate appetite and satisfy even the most demanding palates. The specialized kibble in this food also helps reduce dental plague and tartar formation for better dental health.

The ethos of the Royal Canin brand is based on its unique vision of the dog and the cat: The conviction that dogs and cats are not human beings but animals, and as a result true respect obliges us to treat them as such. True respect implies certain obligations, one of which is the pursuit of knowledge. To truly know the animal and understand its specific physiological and nutritional requirements, and--in consequence--guarantee it a "tailor made" food in line with its real nutritional needs. Royal Canin's philosophy is therefore deliberately non-anthropomorphic. In the field of canine and feline nutrition, some manufacturers put the owners first and use them as the basis of all innovation. At Royal Canin, we put the dog and the cat at the heart of our research process; this is a radically different approach.
