Redditch, Worcestershire -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/23/2011 -- Dog owners will be aware of the fact that dogs come in all shapes and sizes and as man’s best friend, it is important that we treat them in the way that they deserve. Just as humans are more prone to illnesses and infections when they are not eating the correct diet, so are dogs. Making sure that dogs gain the correct nutrients, without too much unwanted fat and energy, is just as important as humans making sure that the food they eat meets their body’s nutritional needs.

Royal Canin Dog Food products are based upon Royal Canin’s extensive knowledge of dogs, obtained through numerous studies at their own centre, as well as through partnerships with leading veterinary schools and universities, and continued advice from breeders and vets across the world. Royal Canin UK makes all of its food to the strictest of quality requirements, ensuring that it is absolutely safe. One food does not fit every dog – Royal Canin recognises this and, as a result, takes into account age, breed, activity and lifestyle when creating their canine diets.

The wide range of Royal Canin Dog Food is divided into three main categories: Royal Canin Veterinary Diets, Canine Vet Care Nutrition and Canine Breed Nutrition – which are available from online pet pharmacy. Royal Canin Veterinary diets for dogs are formulated for the nutritional support of dogs with specific clinical conditions and are designed to be used under the recommendation of a veterinarian. One of the most popular dog foods in this range is the Royal Canin Veterinary Diet: Sensitivity Control Canine which helps dogs who have food hypersensitivity and food intolerance issues – this product must be recommended by a vet. Royal Canin’s Canine Vet Care Nutrition range offers an exclusive lifestyle diet that is suited to your dog’s nutritional needs, whatever their size or stage in life. In addition, Royal Canin’s Canine Breed Nutrition is a range of breed-specific dog food that has been developed to meet the needs and particularities of different breeds.

The main source of energy and nutrition that dogs have is the dog food that their owners buy them. As a result of this, choosing the correct pet food for the dog in question is crucial. In the same way that choosing the cheapest food from the supermarket shelf is unlikely to give people all of the nutrients that they need, cheap dog food is also unlikely to hold all of the nutrients, vitamins and minerals that a dog needs to stay happy and healthy. It is critical that dogs receive a healthy, balanced diet, in order for them to maintain optimal health and Royal Canin dog food can help to achieve this.
