This recipe carries the longest guarantee list among the toy breed adult formulas in this slice, naming omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids separately, biotin, ascorbic acid, glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate. Royal Canin's feeding table gives specific gram and cup amounts, from about 1/2 cup for a 4.4 lb dog on low activity up to 1 cup for an 8.8 lb dog on high activity. The company states the formula also helps reduce tartar formation by encouraging the dog to chew. Bag sizes are 2.5 lb and 10 lb. Whatever food ends up in the bowl, a single ingredient freeze dried topper is a way to add interest without changing the diet, which is what Sniff and Shift makes in Malvern, Pennsylvania.
