It’s very important that your large breed dog and her puppies receive the right level of nutritional support to maintain continued good health for the mother, and the best start possible for her puppies. ROYAL CANIN® Maxi Starter Mother & Babydog is suitable for your dog throughout the gestation and lactation periods, as well as for large breed puppies that will have an adult weight between 26kg and 44kg. As the puppies’ transition from mother’s milk onto solid food, ROYAL CANIN® Maxi Starter Mother & Babydog provides a suitable intermediary formulation of nutrients to facilitate this first period of growth and change. When mixed with water, the kibble is easy to rehydrate to a porridge-like consistency which is very palatable for your dog, as well as the puppies. ROYAL CANIN® Maxi Starter Mother & Babydog is suitable for your dog throughout the gestation and lactation periods, as well as large puppies that will have an adult weight between 26kg-44kg.

Transition Instructions
We recommend at least a 7 day transition before you begin feeding the new food exclusively.
Start by mixing 75% of the old diet with 25% of the new diet on Day 1 and Day 2.
On Day 3 and Day 4, mix 50% of the old diet with 50% of the new diet.
On Day 5 and Day 6, mix 25% of the old diet with 75% of the new diet.
On the 7th day, you can feed the new food exclusively.
This allows your pet’s digestive system to smoothly adapt to the new food.
