PUPPY NUTRITION: Meets the nutritional needs of extra-large dogs in their second growth stage (after 8 months)

MUSCLE SUPPORT: Adapted protein levels and L-carnitine support muscle development

BONE AND JOINT: An adapted energy intake and balanced mineral content promote healthy bone and joint support

IMMUNE SUPPORT: An exclusive blend of antioxidants and prebiotics aids healthy development of immune systems and digestive health

Your giant puppy is destined for big things—and as they grow, they have big nutritional needs. Giant breed dogs have the longest growth period out of other sized dogs—that’s why Royal Canin growth formulas for giant-sized dogs come in two stages: Giant Puppy and Giant Junior. This Giant Junior dry dog food diet is made specifically for that second stage of growth. At around 8 months, they start to fill out their long and lanky body, developing muscles to support their large frame long into adulthood. What you feed them now sets them up for a healthy, happy life as an adult.

Royal Canin Giant Junior is a nutrient-dense diet formulated for your puppy’s healthy growth: Adapted protein levels and added L-carnitine help build strong muscles. Balanced energy content and precise amounts of calcium and phosphorus support healthy bones and joints. Highly digestible proteins and prebiotics promote healthy digestion and optimal stool quality. Key antioxidants and minerals support developing immune systems to help your dog keep growing strong. Transitioning from Royal Canin Giant Puppy to Giant Junior is easy, because both formulas have an exclusive kibble designed specifically for these growing dogs’ large jaws, so they chew their kibble thoroughly. With the targeted nutrition of Royal Canin, your lovable giant can grow up and live their best, most magnificent life.

Great Food

I am so glad I found this food as it was highly recommended by my Vet. I am impressed with all the research the company does to make sure each breed gets what they need, from nutriments, to the size of the kibble. While my dogs do not have a specific breed food, the Giant Breed is perfect for my English Mastiffs.

Trusted for Boerboel development

I use Royal Canine Puppy and Junior for all my new pups during the critical development stage and I am extremely happy with their health. My oldest male is stud registered and has been health testes with clean hips and elbows. Genetics and diet play and important role in the health which is key.

3 steps for growth stages.

My vet recommended this for my pup that is made of 2 large breeds and 2 giant breeds. He loves it, I like the size of the kibble, he actually chews it instead of inhaling, and I find his poops aren't big so there isnt a lot of waste.

Beautiful Coat

My Rottweiler is 13 months old and has been on this line of food since I brought him home. He looks gorgeous compared to his litter mates. He has no digestive issues and he loves the food. I would never feed anything other than Royal Canin to any of my pets.
