Royal Canin Canine Dental Small Dog is a veterinary-exclusive dry dog food specially formulated to support your small dog??s oral health. It??s been awarded the Veterinary Oral Health Council (VOHC) ??Helps Control Tartar?? seal of approval, as it??s clinically proven to effectively reduce tartar buildup. It contains calcium and phosphorus to help support healthy teeth, and the uniquely designed kibble size and shape encourages chewing, which creates a tooth-brushing effect to help reduce plaque accumulation and tartar buildup. Plus, because small dogs have a tendency to have lower urinary tract health concerns, this diet is formulated to promote a diluted urine which helps reduce the risk of crystal formation.

Pets can be sensitive to sudden changes in their diets. For this reason, it is extremely important to follow a gradual transition plan to best support your pet's health and product effectiveness. It is recommended to follow at least a 7-day transition plan before exclusively feeding your pet a new food. Start by mixing 75% of your pet's current diet with 25% of the new diet on Day 1 and Day 2. On Day 3 and Day 4, mix 50% of the current diet with 50% of the new diet. On Day 5 and Day 6, mix 25% of the current diet with 75% of the new diet. On Day 7, you can feed your pet the new food exclusively. Ask your Veterinarian about the best way to transition your pet to a new food.
Transition Day | Current Diet | New Diet |
---|---|---|
Days 1-2 | 75% | 25% |
Days 3-4 | 50% | 50% |
Days 5-6 | 25% | 75% |
Day 7 | 0% | 100% |
