Royal Canin Dog Starter Mousse Tin 195g
Overview
Royal Canin Starter Mousse Mother & Babydog is a complete wet starter food designed for the earliest stages of life, when nutrition needs are changing fast. It is suitable for adult bitches at the end of gestation and during lactation, as well as weaning puppies up to 2 months old.
The smooth mousse texture makes it easy to serve and helps puppies move from milk to solid food with less fuss. Its soft consistency is also useful when puppies are first learning to eat from a bowl. For mothers, it provides a practical wet food option during the demanding late-pregnancy and nursing period.
With support for digestion, immune development and early brain development, this recipe is built to suit the needs of both mum and litter during a short but important stage.
