Royal Canin Yorkshire 28
-
The Yorkshire terrier possesses and incredibly silky coat that can become oily and lead to skin conditions if not maintained by diet and grooming. With an expected life span of 15 years and a particularly difficult palate to please, the Yorkshire Terrier also requires a diet that addresses the affects of old age, such as cardiac, renal and joint conditions. Royal Canin's Yorkshire 28 diet is rich in Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, in addition to calcium and taurine to promote bone density and cognitive functions.
Royal Canin Bulldog 24
-
Its flat head and upturned muzzle make chewing difficult for the English bulldog, hence the size and shape of the dog's food is just as important as the food's nutritional content. In addition, the Bulldog's short but heavy stature places tremendous pressure on the heart and joints; hence a diet lower in fat and rich bone-supporting vitamins, such as calcium, is required.
Royal Canin German Shepherd 24
-
Despite their size, German shepherds have a smaller digestive tract than many breeds and so require and easily digestible nutrition source. Like the Yorkshire terrier, this breed is prone to skin and coat conditions, hence a diet rich in Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids is beneficial.
Royal Canin Poodle 30
-
Similar to the Yorkshire terrier in size and life expectancy, a toy or miniature poodle needs a diet that addresses the effects of old age. Royal Canin Poodle 30 contains additional vitamins C and E, and taurine, to promote cognitive functions; it is appropriate for toy and miniature poodles only.
Royal Canin Labrador Retriever 30
-
Prone to skin allergies and weight-control issues, the Labrador retriever requires a diet low in fat, high in protein, and rich in Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids.

Royal Canin Breed Health and Nutrition
Royal Canin is a brand of pet food that caters to the specific needs of your pet. While all breeds are different and have differing nutritional requirements, Royal Canin has identified eleven breeds whose requirements are so vastly different as to warrant the development of a diet specific to their breed. These include--but are not limited to--the Yorkshire terrier, the English bulldog, the German shepherd, the poodle and the Labrador retriever. The number at the end of the label indicates the protein percentage of that particular diet. A German shepherd, for instance, requires less protein than a Labrador retriever requires, due to the shepherd's natural leanness, as opposed to the labrador's natural stoutness.
