Product Details & Features

Royal Canin Giant Junior Dog Food represents the pinnacle of breed-specific nutrition, formulated exclusively for the unique needs of giant breed puppies during their extended growth period.

Precise Nutritional Balance for Giant Breeds
Giant breed puppies face unique challenges—they grow rapidly yet have a prolonged growth period lasting up to 24 months, putting tremendous stress on developing bones and joints. This formula provides precisely calibrated levels of protein (32%), fat (14%), calcium (1.0%), and phosphorus (0.8%) to support steady, healthy growth without the excessive weight gain that can lead to skeletal problems.

Joint Health Support
Enriched with glucosamine and chondroitin, natural compounds that support cartilage health and joint function. Combined with controlled mineral content, this formula helps protect your puppy's developing joints from the stress of carrying their substantial frame—reducing the risk of hip dysplasia and other joint issues common in giant breeds.

Digestive Care Complex
Features highly digestible L.I.P. (Low Indigestible Protein) proteins that are 90% digestible, ensuring maximum nutrient absorption with minimal digestive stress. Prebiotics (FOS) and balanced fiber content promote beneficial gut bacteria, support healthy digestion, and produce firm, well-formed stools—important for puppies with sensitive digestive systems.

Immune System Support
An exclusive antioxidant complex including vitamin E, vitamin C, taurine, and lutein helps strengthen your puppy's natural defenses during the critical growth period when their immune system is still developing. This nutritional support helps your puppy stay healthy and resilient.

Skin & Coat Health
Omega-3 fatty acids (EPA & DHA) and omega-6 fatty acids support healthy skin and a lustrous coat, while also contributing to brain development and cognitive function—helping your puppy learn and thrive.

Exclusive Giant Kibble
The extra-large, specially designed kibble is perfectly sized for giant breed jaws, encouraging thorough chewing that slows eating pace and improves digestion. The kibble texture also provides gentle abrasive action that helps maintain dental health from an early age.
