Complete feed for dogs - For the small breed bitch (up to 10 kg) and her puppies: bitch at the end of gestation and during lactation - Weaning puppies up to 2 months old.

Newborn puppies have unique nutritional requirements to help support their developing senses and nervous systems. What's more, feeding growing puppies is a strenuous task that can take its toll on your small dog's metabolism. During the weaning period when the litter are transitioning to solid food, your dog and her nursing puppies need a tailored diet to meet their unique nutritional needs.

Royal Canin® Mini Starter Mother & Babydog is specially formulated to support the nutritional needs of new mothers and their puppies. This formula is suitable for small adult dogs that weigh up to 10 kg, and weaning puppies up to 2 months old.

This tailored diet is specially adapted to meet your small dog's high energy needs at the end of gestation and during lactation. It's also formulated to support the healthy development of nursing puppies.

This formula contains nutrients such as vitamins C and E to support natural defences.

Thanks to a combination of beneficial prebiotics (such as MOS) and highly digestible proteins, Royal Canin® Mini Starter Mother & Babydog also helps to support a healthy balance of intestinal microbiota (gut flora) for good digestion.

This formula is enriched with omega-3 fatty acids (such as DHA) to help support healthy brain development in young puppies.

The kibble in Royal Canin® Mini Starter Mother & Babydog is easy to rehydrate with water, giving it an appetising porridge texture that's ideal for weaning puppies.

Did you know that a puppy's nutritional needs change as they grow? In the short span of 8 weeks, your puppies will need a diet that's specially adapted to meet their nutritional needs during the next growth phase. At this stage, you can transition them onto Royal Canin® Mini Puppy, available either as a dry kibble diet or with wet chunks in gravy.

At Royal Canin, we're committed to creating a better world for cats and dogs. For more than 50 years, we've worked closely with breeders, vets, and pet experts, sharing specialist knowledge and scientific research to create a dedicated approach to individualised, precise nutritional solutions.

All of our products undergo an extensive quality control process to guarantee the optimal quality of food. When your small dog and her puppies eat Royal Canin® Mini Starter Mother & Babydog, they're getting a complete and balanced diet.

Mother & Babydog's Health Support: Mini Starter is a unique nutritional solution which is adapted to the mother's high energy needs at the end of gestation and during lactation for nursing puppies' optimal growth.

Immune System Support: Supports the development of the puppy's healthy immune system with the inclusion of a complex of nutrients, including vitamins E and C.

Microbiome Support: Combination of prebiotics (MOS) & highly digestible proteins to help support a healthy balance of intestinal microbiota for digestive health.

My dog has loved this since he was a pup

We�ve been ordering this since my dog was just 3 months old and honestly he still loves it. He�s 4 years old now and still won�t eat anything else. It�s been his favourite from day one.

The quality is really really good. Never had any issues. He�s healthy, active and happy so I guess that says a lot about the food.

We�ve stuck with it for years and don�t plan on switching. If your dog is picky like mine, give this one a try. Worked brilliantly for us.

Fantastic food!

Love this food, start giving it to the mum to be a few weeks before shes due. It boosts her ready for whelping and the pups are already used to it when they start after 4 weeks. The kibble is small and easily hydrated and smells good too!

Excellent product

My Cavalier King Charles went completely off her food most of her pregnancy, I tried everything, I was very worried & after reading up on this food I ordered a bag & like magic as soon as I put the bowl of food in front of her she ate the lot , she has never stopped eating since & has a lovely healthy litter of 7 puppies , needless to say I will be weaning them onto this food & sending them off to their new homes with a bag of this food

Happy Mum and Pups

I've been feeding this to our Norfolk Terrier bitch while she's been feeding her 3 pups, and she certainly seems to have kept her weight on (and is loving getting 4 meals a day!!). After 4 weeks, I soaked some of the biscuits in a little water and was amazed when the pups ate them without hesitation. Success all round.

Review

We've been feeding our Smooth Fox Terrier Bitch on this food 2-weeks before whelping. Now we're well into weaning this food is readily digestible by the Pups. Soak it to slush for very young babies, then reduce the water content as they get older, they LOVE IT! Mum hasn't done too badly on this product either. Coat and teeth are in near pre-whelping condition. Recommended.
