Key Benefits

• Nutritional ratios are specifically designed for large and maxi breed puppies, ensuring their unique developmental needs are fully met at every stage of growth.
• A carefully selected blend of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals actively strengthens the developing immune system, giving puppies a healthy foundation for life.
• Highly digestible proteins combined with prebiotic fibres support a healthy digestive system and improve the absorption of key nutrients from every meal.
• Balanced calorie and nutrient content promotes steady, controlled growth, reducing the risk of developmental bone and joint issues often seen in fast-growing large breeds.
• Moderate energy content is calibrated to meet the high activity needs of large breed puppies while avoiding excess caloric intake that could contribute to unhealthy weight gain.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I switch my puppy from Royal Canin Maxi Puppy to an adult formula?
Large and maxi breed dogs typically complete their growth phase later than smaller breeds. Royal Canin recommends transitioning to Maxi Adult food at around 15 months of age for large breeds. Always transition gradually over 7 to 10 days by mixing increasing proportions of the new food with the puppy formula.
