Medium Puppy is formulated for medium breed puppies, expected adult weight 23 to 55 lb, up to 12 months old. The first five ingredients by pre cooking weight are chicken by-product meal, chicken fat, brewers rice, corn and wheat, a rendered meal and a named fat ahead of three grains. Royal Canin publishes an age based feeding table on the product page for 2, 4, 8 and 12 month old puppies, with separate cup and gram amounts for three target adult weights, 24, 40 and 55 lb, rather than one number. Bag sizes are 4 lb, 17 lb and 30 lb. The recipe carries a DHA guarantee alongside vitamin E and a vitamin C source, guarantees the manufacturer prints for growth stage foods. Sniff and Shift makes single ingredient freeze dried treats, which are treats rather than meals, and they pair with any complete diet on this list.
