Royal Canin Maxi Adult 15kg

For Large Breed Adults 15months - 5yrs; 26 - 45kg.

Maxi Breeds

The term 'Maxi' refers to dogs whose adult weight is between 26kg and 45kg.

Maxi-sized dogs are typically faithful and affectionate, making ideal pets. They were traditionally treasured for their incredible working abilities, and are superb at herding, tracking, rescue and assistance.

As Maxi dogs are particularly prone to sensitive digestion, Royal Canin Maxi formulas contain ingredients such as prebiotics to help maintain a healthy digestive system. Due to their large body mass, Maxi dogs are also susceptible to joint problems, so Royal Canin Maxi food includes glucosamine and chondroitin to help support mobility throughout life.

Examples of Maxi breeds

Afghan Hound, Borzoi, Greyhound, English Pointer, German Short Haired Pointer, Weimaraner, Clumber Spaniel, Old English Sheep Dog, Belgian Shepherd, Doberman, Giant Schnauzer.

Royal Canin Maxi Adult

To keep an adult dog in ideal shape, the food must take into account its activity levels, prevent digestive disorders and anticipate the effects of ageing. Maxi dogs are active by temperament or by the job they are asked to do, so they expend a great deal of energy and are often outdoors. This lifestyle implies increased stresses on the joints and high energy requirements (lowering the ambient temperature from 15C to 8C increases requirements by 25%). Because of their body type and physiological characteristics Maxi dogs have a more sensitive digestion. This lower digestive tolerance requires a reduced dietary volume and an increased energy content. Even during adulthood, large breed dogs are subject to the effects of early aging such as joint sensitivity, and heart and digestive troubles. Research indicates that glucosamine hydrochloride and chondroitin sulfate, compounds naturally produced by the body, help maintain healthy joint cartilage. Vitamin E and Vitamin C, key compounds with a natural anti-oxidant function in cells, help large breed dogs maintain optimal health throughout their entire life. A diet with an optimal amino-acid profile promotes overall health and vitality.
