Royal Canin Gastrointestinal Adult Dry Dog Food

Royal Canin Canine Gastro Intestinal has been specially formulated to ease the symptoms of gastrointestinal disorders and help your dog recover from their effects.

How it works

The food uses only highly digestible ingredients, meaning it's gentle on your dog's digestive system whilst still delivering all the nutrients it needs. Because each serving is high in energy, you can feed your dog less often and ease the strain on its digestion without leaving it hungry. This high energy content also makes it easier for your dog to regain any weight it may have lost as a result of its condition.

High quality fibre is important for good digestion, so the food uses fermentable beet pulp to help create an ideal environment for healthy gut bacteria. The right level of bacteria in your dog's system will help to stabilise its gut and protect against the recurrence of digestive issues.

It's common for dogs with gastrointestinal issues to lose their appetites, so with this in mind, the food has been created to taste and smell as irresistible as possible.

Key benefits

• highly digestible ingredients ease digestive workload and provide nutrients
• high energy content promotes weight gain
• quality fibre encourages growth of healthy gut bacteria
• suitable for short or long term feeding 
• great taste to reduce effects of appetite loss.

When to use it

The first signs that your dog is suffering from a gastrointestinal issue are likely to include vomiting, diarrhoea and loss of appetite. Your first step after noticing any new symptoms in your pet should be to make an appointment with your vet. Digestive issues can have a number of causes, so it's important to gain an expert opinion and diagnosis as soon as possible.

Gastrointestinal issues can occur in dogs of any age and may not have any obvious cause. Common illnesses associated with digestive symptoms include IBD (inflammatory bowel disease), colitis, gastritis and EPI (exocrine pancreatic insufficiency). Depending on the diagnosis, your vet might suggest further tests or medication. Alongside this, nearly all gastrointestinal problems can be treated to some extent through a temporary or permanent change of diet.

Because veterinary diets are formulated for the nutritional support of pets with specific clinical conditions, we recommend that you only use them under professional advice. For more information on feeding Royal Canin Canine Gastro Intestinal to your dog, please consult your veterinary surgeon.
