Great Dane Adult is formulated for purebred Great Danes 24 months and older. Its first five ingredients by pre cooking weight are chicken fat, chicken by-product meal, tapioca, brewers rice and corn, a named fat leading ahead of the rendered meal, an ordering not seen elsewhere in this slice. This recipe carries the highest fat minimum, 23 percent, and the highest calorie density, 4,152 kcal/kg or 390 kcal per cup, of any formula in the set. Royal Canin states the energy needs of Great Danes run about 50 percent higher than other dogs of similar size due to their muscle mass, and that the large, textured kibble is designed for the breed's very large jaw. Feeding runs from 6 3/4 to 11 5/8 cups daily for dogs 110 to 176 lb, given in at least two meals. It ships in a 30 lb bag. Dogs who lose interest in a rotation often take it again with a single ingredient freeze dried topper crumbled over the top.
