Overview

Royal Canin's Size Health Nutrition line for medium breed adult dogs, a chicken-flavored dry kibble sold in a 17 pound bag.

The formula is built around brewers rice, chicken by-product meal, and added omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil, targeted at medium-sized adult dogs rather than a universal size range. Royal Canin backs it with a policy that covers replacement or a refund if a buyer isn't satisfied.
