He won't eat anything else!

I rescued my chihuahua when he was 4 months old and the shelter was feeding him Royal Canin. I've stuck with it throughout the years and now that he is 9yrs old thats all he wants to eat! Great price and great quality of food.

Packed with Nutrition

My youngest Chihuahua was introduced to royal canin chihuahua adult dry dog food as he was being weaned from puppy dood to adult food. I've never sewn anything like it before! We mixed the two foods together to gradually change over his food from one to the other, but the first feeding of mixed foods brought something we never expected... Bandit had never been fed royal canin before that day. We watched after we set down the bowl. Bandit smelled the food and proceeded to use his nose to push his pyppy food out of e bowl onto the floor, one piece at a time, until the only food in the bowl was royal canin chihuahua adult dry dog food! After picking out all of the old food, Bandit ate only the Royal Canin Chihuahua adult dry dog food that remained in his bowl! We had to add more food to replace what he had picked out of his bowl, of course. Bandit won't eat anything else ever since! Bandit is a very smart Chihuahua, and it's quite obvious he knows what the good stuff is! Thank you Royal Canin!

Picky Chihuahua's Agree...

I buy Royal Canin Chihuahua dry dog food for my picky, toothless senior Chihuahua. It has been the only dog food he will eat for many years. In addition to the dry food (which I leave down for him all day/night), he also gets boiled chicken, sweet potatoes, and vegetables daily. I cannot tell you how many times he chooses to eat the Royal Canin dry food over his freshly cooked chicken. I think that says a lot. This 15 year old Chihuahua gives Royal Canin Chihuahua Adult dry dog food all 4 paws up.

Not entirely satisfied

My dog was fed this her first year and a half of life. I notice her coat is shiny but she has no muscle and only “goes number 2” every two days. I do not know if this is normal. Since switching my dog off of this food to a more meat and potatoes type diet she has been regular. Maybe not as shiny but her health means more to me than a shiny coat. I have to say I do like how the company advertises though. Coming from the agriculture industry I do appreciate it.
