General
Royal Canin MAXI Large Breed Adult 26 - Even during adulthood, large breed dogs are subject to the effects of early aging such as joint sensitivity, and heart and digestive troubles. Research indicates that glucosamine hydrochloride and chondroitin sulfate, compounds naturally produced by the body, help maintain healthy joint cartilage. Vitamin E and Vitamin C, key compounds with a natural anti-oxidant function in cells, help large breed dogs maintain optimal health throughout their entire life. A diet with an optimal amino-acid profile promotes overall health and vitality.
The term “Maxi” includes dogs weighing from 55 to 100 pounds at adulthood. Most of them were originally bred as working dogs, and still today excel as sheep dogs, trackers, emergency rescue dogs, guard dogs or as guide dogs for the blind. They are faithful and affectionate and make ideal pets.
Digestive Safety - Help Prevent the Appearance of Digestive Disorders of the Large Breed Dog. Because of their reduced digestive capacity, large breed dogs are very sensitive to their food. Heavy meals and indigestible food can lead to diarrhea, abdominal distension (bloat) and other digestive disorders.
Concentrated Food To Help The Digestive Tract - In proportion to their weight, large breed adult dogs have a smaller digestive tract than that of small breeds. This may explain their relatively low digestive capacity and their high digestive sensitivity. They are also more predisposed to gastric dilatation volvulus (bloat).
Body Condition - Maintain the Ideal Weight of the Large Breed Dog. The energy requirements of large breed adult dogs can vary greatly, depending on their lifestyle. Today, 30% of dogs suffer from being overweight - the direct consequence of a sedentary lifestyle and a food too rich in energy. To keep them in good health for as long as possible, it is essential to choose a diet adapted to the size and activity of the dog.
Joint Maintenance - Help Protect the Joints of the Large Breed Dog. The large dogs body weight combined with an active temperament puts their joints under stress day after day. A food rich in the antioxidant vitamins E and C associated with natural sources of Glucosamine and Chondroitin help protect the joints.
• For large breed dogs from 15 months to 5 years of age.
