Title: My Go-To Kibble for Picky Small Dogs – A Must-Try!
Okay, let’s talk about this dog food. As someone with a very opinionated 8-pound Maltese (hello, Princess), finding kibble she actually finishes has been a years-long battle. Treats? She’ll beg. Chicken? Obsessed. Dry food? Total snob. But Royal Canin’s Small Adult formula? Game. Changer.
Why It Works for Us:
First off – the pieces are TINY. Like, smaller than a pea. Perfect for little mouths! Princess used to leave half her bowl untouched because bigger kibble stressed her out (yes, dogs can be drama queens). Now? She cleans her plate every time. Finally.
The smell? Mild and kinda fresh, not that weird chemical odor some brands have. I swear her breath even improved after a month! No more “doggy toothpaste” battles – huge win.
Energy & Weight Stuff:
Princess isn’t exactly a marathon runner (her idea of exercise is barking at squirrels from the couch). But this food keeps her playful without making her pudgy. I used to worry about overfeeding, but the portions are super clear on the bag. Two months in, her vet said her weight’s perfect – and her coat looks glossier.
What I Didn’t Expect:
- Less begging between meals – Turns out the “stays full longer” claim isn’t just marketing.
- Easy to digest – No more upset tummy episodes (you know the ones).
- No weird ingredients – No corn syrup or mystery meat here.
Who Should Try This:
- Small breed owners (under 22 lbs)
- Dogs that turn their nose up at boring kibble
- Anyone tired of vacuuming uneaten food off the floor
