Royal Canin Canine Care Nutrition XS Adult Light Weight Care Dry Dog Food 1.5 KG

Royal Canin Canine Care Nutrition X-Small Adult Light Weight Care is a complete and balanced dry dog food formulated specifically for extra small breed adult dogs weighing up to 4kg that have a tendency to gain weight or need to lose a little weight. Available at PetCentral, a trusted dog food shop serving dog owners across Dubai and the UAE, this formula by Royal Canin combines a significantly reduced calorie content, adapted protein levels, and L-carnitine at 140mg per kg to support healthy fat metabolism while preserving lean muscle mass. Backed by a Royal Canin internal study showing that the majority of dogs can achieve a healthier weight within just two months when following the X-Small Weight Care programme combining both the dry and wet formulas, this is one of the most targeted and proven weight management diets available for extra small breed dogs in the UAE.

Key Benefits

• Formulated exclusively for extra small breed adult dogs weighing up to 4kg, recognising the unique physiology, metabolic rate, and weight management challenges of XS breed dogs including Chihuahuas, Yorkshire Terriers, Pomeranians, and Miniature Pinschers commonly kept across the UAE
• Significantly reduced calorie content at 3,407 kcal per kg compared to standard XS adult formulas, allowing extra small breed owners to serve satisfying portions that match their dog's appetite without the excess caloric intake that drives weight gain in low-activity indoor dogs
• Adapted protein content at 24% minimum is precisely calibrated to maintain lean muscle mass during weight loss, addressing the critical challenge of preventing muscle degradation alongside fat reduction in small and extra small breed dogs
• L-carnitine at 140mg per kg actively supports healthy fat metabolism by facilitating the conversion of stored body fat into usable energy, helping extra small breed dogs across the UAE achieve a leaner and healthier body condition more efficiently
• An ideal fibre blend using both soluble and insoluble fibres, including psyllium husk and beet pulp, promotes a satisfying sense of fullness between meals, helping extra small dogs feel satiated on a reduced caloric intake and reducing persistent food-seeking behaviour
• Glucosamine at 371mg per kg and chondroitin sulphate at 4mg per kg support joint health and cartilage integrity, important for overweight extra small breed dogs whose excess body weight places disproportionate stress on small joints and limbs
• EPA and DHA from fish oil support healthy skin condition and coat lustre, as well as cardiovascular health, particularly valuable for extra small indoor dogs in the warm and dry UAE climate
• A precise blend of antioxidants including vitamins C and E supports a healthy immune system, helping extra small breed dogs maintain robust immune function throughout the weight management phase
• Fructooligosaccharides provide natural prebiotic fibre that nourishes beneficial gut bacteria, supporting a healthy digestive microbiome and consistent gut health throughout a weight management feeding programme
• Tiny XS kibble size is designed specifically for the petite mouths and small jaws of extra small breed dogs, making it easy and comfortable to pick up and chew at every meal
• Can be combined with Royal Canin X-Small Weight Care wet dog food as a complete mixed feeding programme that delivers 100% complete and balanced nutrition across both formats
• Free from added colourings, developed using science-based nutrition with Royal Canin's trademark attention to breed and size-specific nutritional detail
