Royal Canin Yorkshire Terrier Adult Dog Food

Royal Canin Yorkshire Terrier Adult Dog Food

Royal Canin Yorkshire Terrier Adult Dog Food is a breed-specific dry dog food formulated for adult and mature Yorkshire Terriers from 10 months of age. Developed to meet the particular nutritional needs of this small, distinctive breed, it supports coat condition, dental hygiene, appetite appeal and everyday vitality.

Yorkshire Terriers have characteristic long, continuously growing hair, small jaws and a distinct bite, while some may also be selective about food. This Royal Canin formula provides targeted nutrition designed around these breed traits, with a kibble format adapted for small mouths and a nutrient profile tailored for adult Yorkies.

Key Benefits

• Supports the condition of the Yorkshire Terrier’s long, silky coat with nutrients selected to nourish the skin and hair.
• Contains omega-3 fatty acids, including EPA and DHA from fish oil, to support healthy skin.
• Includes omega-6 fatty acids and borage oil, a source of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), to help nourish the coat and support softness and shine.
• Provides biotin, a B-vitamin associated with hair strength and skin health.
• Features a highly palatable recipe with selected aromas, enhanced flavour and tailored kibble to appeal to fussy eaters.
• Helps support dental hygiene with calcium chelators that bind calcium in saliva, helping to reduce its deposition as tartar on teeth.

• Offers complete and balanced nutrition for adult Yorkshire Terriers aged 10 months and older.
