Feeding Guidelines / Directions:

Feeding Transition Directions:
To transition to Royal Canin X-Small Puppy, gradually mix it with your puppy's current food over a 7-day period to avoid digestive upset. Begin with 75% old food and 25% new food for the first 2 days, move to a 50/50 mix for the next 2 days, then 75% new food with 25% old food for days 5 and 6. By day 7, switch entirely to the new food. This gradual change helps ensure a smooth adaptation to the new diet.
