The formula is designed so that the owner does not need to include any additional supplements in his dog's diet.

In some expert reviews, there is information about the content of wheat and other plant components in ROYAL CANIN feed and a small amount of fiber. According to veterinarians, this does not add any benefits to the feed and may cause health problems for some pets.

Against the backdrop of negative forecasts on the network, one can also find extremely positive responses from veterinarians. Experts credit the French food with restoring the energy expenditure of dogs. They believe that it contains enough elements for the development and healthy growth of animals.

MMany veterinarians prefer to prescribe this brand of diets to their four-legged patients. And there are those who do not recommend its use. The opinions of dog owners are also controversial.

A lot of controversy among specialists and breeders is caused by the presence of beet pulp in dry dog ​​food. Someone considers it an additional supplier of fiber in the diet, according to others, it is a useless component. Dog lovers also argue about additives such as yeast. Some believe that this is a set of useful vitamins to improve metabolism in the body. And other dog owners give the yeast allergen status.

In the line of medicated feeds, the products are somewhat more expensive in comparison with the most demanded series.
