Royal Canin Medium Mature

The term "Medium" includes dogs weighing from 11 to 25 kg when adult. Adult dogs over 7 years Medium-sized dogs frequently live to the age of 14 or 15 years. From the age of 7 years, a correct diet can slow the effects of ageing. The signs of ageing: Lowered vitality and exercise intolerance, so the dog uses less energy and is at risk of obesity. Weakened immune defences related to cellular oxidative phenomena caused by free radicals. The coat turns white, dull and rough to the feel and skin becomes less elastic. Increased risk of kidney failure. Decreased sense of smell and taste, leading to a gradual loss of appetite. The digestive system also becomes less efficient. Available in 4 kg/ 8 kg/ 15 kg bags. Helps maintain vitality in the older dog due to a reduced phosphorous content to help maintain kidney function, a high protein content (25%) to maintain muscle mass and vitamins E (500 mg/kg) and C (200 mg/kg) to neutalise free radicals.
