Key benefits
Supports pregnant dogs and puppies
The specially-tailored recipe supports the health of pregnant dogs and their puppies. It can contribute to strong bodily defences and promotes a balanced microbiome - the vital basis for good development in early growth phases.
Adapted kibble
Rehydratable kibble in tailored size
The approx. 1cm large kibble pieces can be soaked in water and turned into a soft mash. This is ideal for supporting food changes and weaning from mother's milk to solid foods.
Mixed feeding
Perfect combination of wet and dry food
To increase acceptance at mealtimes, it can be beneficial to combine wet and dry food. Crunchy kibble and tender chunks bring more variety and appeal to your dog's every meal.
Royal Canin range
Extensive assortment of dog food
Royal Canin offers a wide range of dog food, tailored to support different life stages and individual needs. From extra-large puppies to adult dogs to pets with special nutritional needs, you will find a suitable recipe to provide species-appropriate nutrition.
 
  • Tailored energy content: tailored for medium dogs and nursing puppies
  • Supports the immune system: promotes healthy immune system function with a proven complex with vitamins C and E
  • Healthy digestion: thanks to prebiotics such as MOS and highly-digestible proteins
  • Brain development: with omega-3 fatty acids (e.g. DHA) to support healthy brain function
The kibble in this Royal Canin Medium Starter Mother & Babydog can be easily rehydrated by mixing with water, creating an appetising pulp texture that is ideal for weaning puppies.

Very good product

As per usual, this Royal Canin food is amazing. Great for mums while they feed and as a first solid food for puppies. This has made buying separate bags for pregnancy and for the puppies completely obsolete. This really is an all-in-one

Great food

this is great for my jack Russell , this is the second time I have used this when she is about to have her pups , this time I went for the medium one because you got 12.5kg , in the small type you only get 8.5kg but the small and medium kibble are the same size and have the same things in it so I would buy the medium from now on as you are getting a 3.5KG extra and that SAVES ABOUT £15

Great Product for my Springer Spaniel and her Pups

I have fed both my Springers on the Royal Canin Medium brand since we got them as pups so thought i would use the Starter when my female got pregnant. The pups (and mum) love the product and they pups have had no problems with the food starting on it from 4 weeks old (with the puppy milk). I would recommend this product.
