Nutrition for the Growth Stage

A German Shepherd puppy grows fast and finishes big, so the calcium and phosphorus balance matters as much as the protein level. This food is set for that growth curve, from 8 weeks to 15 months. At 15 months, move on to Royal Canin German Shepherd Adult.

Promoting Digestive Health

The breed has a tendency to poor stool quality. The recipe answers that with highly digestible proteins and a specific fibre blend, including beet pulp, pea fibre and psyllium seed husk.

Enhancing Immune System Function

The antioxidant complex includes vitamin E and a source of vitamin C. Both back up a puppy's natural defences over the months when it is still building them.
