Overview
Royal Canin's Size Health Nutrition dry kibble formulated specifically for extra-small breed dogs age seven and up, sold in a 2.5 lb bag with a chicken-based recipe.
The formula targets extra-small kibble sizing and senior-specific needs at the same time, setting it apart from a general small-breed formula. Because the bag is sized for extra-small dogs specifically, it would run through quickly if fed to anything larger.
- Extra-small breed sizing
- Age 7+ senior formula
- Chicken flavor
- Teeth-scrubbing kibble shape
Who it's for
Owners of senior extra-small breed dogs, roughly toy and teacup sizes, looking for kibble scaled to both jaw size and age.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Kibble sized specifically for extra-small breeds
- Formulated for dogs age 7 and up
- Includes prebiotic fiber for digestion
- 2.5 lb bag is a small supply, meaning frequent reordering
- Not suited to non-senior or larger dogs
Performance notes
The kibble is shaped for a teeth-scrubbing action as the dog chews and uses proteins Royal Canin describes as easy to digest, paired with prebiotic fiber intended to support digestion in older dogs.
