German Shepherd 5+ Dry Food For Dog

Benefits of ROYAL CANIN® German Shepherd 5+

1. Healthy Ageing Complex
ROYAL CANIN® German Shepherd 5+ is specially formulated to support healthy ageing in mature German Shepherds. This recipe includes an exclusive combination of antioxidants to maintain cellular health, and a carefully adjusted phosphorus content to help protect kidney function as your dog ages.

2. Joint Function Support
As German Shepherds mature, their joints can experience increased stress. This formula provides advanced nutrients, including collagen, EPA & DHA (omega-3 fatty acids), to support cartilage health and maintain strong bones and joints throughout the ageing process.

3. Digestive Health
German Shepherds are prone to digestive sensitivity, and this formula is precisely balanced to support their delicate digestive system. It features highly digestible proteins (L.I.P.*), along with specific fibres and prebiotics to help promote a healthy intestinal flora, improve digestive health, and maintain optimal stool quality.
*L.I.P.: Protein selected for its very high digestibility.

4. Tailor-Made Kibble
The kibble in ROYAL CANIN® German Shepherd 5+ is specifically designed for mature German Shepherds. Its size, shape, and texture cater to the needs of older dogs, while the kibble can be softened with warm water, making it easier for your dog to eat and digest.
