Chihuahua Adult is formulated for purebred Chihuahuas 8 months and older. Its first five ingredients by pre cooking weight are corn, chicken by-product meal, wheat gluten, oat groats and brewers rice, four plant based ingredients around the one rendered chicken meal. Royal Canin describes the kibble as customized and small sized for the breed's pointed muzzle and tiny jaw. The product page provides two feeding tables, one for dry food alone by weight from 2.2 to 7.7 lb, and a second for mixed feeding that combines this kibble with canned food at the same weight range. Bag sizes are 2.5 lb and 10 lb. A separate Chihuahua Adult 8+ senior formula exists on the manufacturer's site but is outside the size and breed list for this article set. Dogs who lose interest in a rotation often take it again with a single ingredient freeze dried topper crumbled over the top.
