Product Description

Product Overview

Royal Canin Anallergenic Veterinary Dry Dog Food – 3kg is a complete dietetic food formulated for adult dogs with ingredient and nutrient intolerances. It uses an extensively hydrolysed protein source made up of very small oligopeptides and amino acids, helping minimise the risk of adverse reactions to dietary proteins.

The formula uses maize starch as the selected carbohydrate source and is produced using a manufacturing process designed to minimise potential allergen contamination. It also contains nutrients that help support the skin's natural protective barrier.

Royal Canin Anallergenic may be recommended by a veterinarian for dogs requiring a carefully controlled elimination diet or nutritional management of suspected food intolerance.

This is part of the Royal Canin Veterinary Nutrition range and should only be fed under veterinary recommendation.
