Overview

A canned, loaf-textured dog food from Royal Canin's Veterinary Diet line, formulated for gastrointestinal support with a low fat profile. It ships as a 13.5 oz can, 12 to a pack.

As part of Royal Canin's Veterinary Diet range, this is typically fed under a vet's direction for a dog with a diagnosed digestive or fat-sensitivity issue, rather than chosen as a general everyday food. It currently ranks #13 among veterinary diet dog foods and #162 among canned dog foods overall.

  • Low fat gastrointestinal formula
  • Loaf texture canned food
  • 12-pack of 13.5 oz cans
  • #13 in Veterinary Diet Dog Food

Who it's for

Dogs under veterinary care for gastrointestinal issues that call for a low fat diet. Not intended as a routine food for a dog without that specific need.
