Royal Canin Maxi Starter Dry Dog Food supports large breed mothers and their puppies during gestation, lactation, and weaning. This specialized formula caters to the high energy needs of mothers and aids in the healthy development of puppies transitioning from milk to solid food. The kibble easily rehydrates to a porridge-like consistency, making it palatable and easy to consume for both mothers and weaning puppies. Enriched with the Start Complex, it combines nutrients present in mother's milk with specific elements to support digestive health and natural defenses. This ensures both mother and puppies receive optimal nutrition during critical growth stages.
