Description
PRODUCT DETAILS
The ROYAL CANIN® Great Dane Adult dry food is specifically designed for Great Danes aged 24 months and older, meeting their unique nutritional needs. Known as the largest dog breed in the world, Great Danes are characterized by their impressive stature and long growth period, making them require special care in terms of nutrition.
Digestive Health Support:
This formula includes highly digestible L.I.P. proteins and a selection of specific fibers that help support healthy digestion. It reduces intestinal fermentation and promotes a balanced gut flora, contributing to overall digestive well-being.
Joint & Bone Health:
Great Danes place significant strain on their joints due to their massive size. ROYAL CANIN® Great Dane Adult is enriched with an optimal amount of calcium, phosphorus, and essential fatty acids like EPA and DHA to support healthy joints and strong bones, reducing the risk of joint discomfort.
Energy Needs:
Great Danes have a high muscle mass—approximately 80% of their body composition—which means they require more energy than other breeds of similar size. This formula provides the right balance of energy to meet their higher caloric needs without overloading their stomach, ensuring that they stay active and healthy.
Ideal for Large, Powerful Dogs:
This specially formulated food meets the unique needs of the Great Dane, ensuring that it supports their growth, muscle mass, and overall vitality, helping them thrive as they continue to mature.
BENEFITS
Concentrated Energy
Great Danes have uniquely high energy requirements due to their large muscle mass and active nature. This formula provides a concentrated energy content that meets their needs without overloading the stomach, which is especially important for preventing digestive issues such as bloat (gastric dilatation-volvulus). To further reduce the risk, it is recommended to divide the daily ration into at least two meals.
Digestive Performance
Great Danes are known for their sensitive digestive systems. This formula includes highly digestible L.I.P. proteins and specific dietary fibres to promote optimal digestive health. These ingredients help reduce intestinal fermentation and support a balanced intestinal flora, contributing to better stool quality and overall gastrointestinal comfort.
Bone & Joint Health
Due to their massive size and skeletal structure, Great Danes place considerable stress on their bones and joints. This formula supports joint and bone health with an adapted level of calcium and phosphorus, and is enriched with omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA, known for their anti-inflammatory properties. It also helps maintain an ideal weight, further reducing joint strain.
Exclusive Kibble Design
The kibble has been meticulously designed for the Great Dane’s large, square-shaped jaw. Its shape, size, and texture encourage thorough chewing, slowing down food intake and improving digestion. The formula also matches the breed’s specific nutritional requirements, ensuring complete and balanced nourishment.
