When it comes to kibble, paws down, Paddy is a Royal Canin gal. We've tried different brands over the years, but we always come back to Royal Canin's Yorkie mix. Not only does it keep Paddy's coat looking super shiny, but her teeth look great and this is the only formula she seems to have any interest in eating. (Funny story, we tried switching brands by mixing a new kibble into her Royal Canin-- she picked it out and left it on the floor... for a week... so special.)
Thus, our ears definitely perked up when we heard that Royal Canin is introducing a new X-Small nutrition line for dogs under 8lbs. After hearing what huge fans we are, they kindly sent us a bag to check out-- and so far, Paddy is a huge fan! While she loves her Yorkie mix, the size of the X-Small pieces is definitely better for her, and we like that it's formulated with a dog of her weight in mind. We tried out the Adult version, but it also comes in Puppy, Mature Adult and Aging. Also, love that there is an extra emphasis on digestive health. Paddy can have a sensitive tummy, so the extra digestible proteins and fiber level will hopefully help!
So, two very important things. First, to celebrate, we've got one extra Royal Canin Spa Day Package to give to a lucky Barkzilla reader! That's right-- this package contains $80 worth of goodies to pamper your pooch including our favorite Natural Dog Grooming Wipes and some handy micro-fiber towels. Here's how to enter:

Is your dog a Royal Canin fan?
Domino is also a Royal Canin fan. Though he's only half yorkie, we've been feeding him the Yorkie puppy formula (which he loves). Thanks to your review, I think we'll test drive a bag of X-Small puppy. Thanks for the tip!
ReplyDeleteShe deserves it because there is nothing in the world she would not do for me or someone else! My pup is my best friend!!
ReplyDeleteThanks :)
Addie is a royal canin fan! Their hypoallergenic food was the only thing that she could eat for a long time!
ReplyDeleteLuna totally deserves a day of pampering! As a dog recently adopted from the SPCA with no known history, who knows the troubles she may have been through in her life. She deserves all the care in the world so that she feels she's finally loved in her forever home.
ReplyDeleteWe adopted Dumpling in the beginning of the year from a nearby shelter. He is a shih tzu mix and is 1 year and 7 months young. He was in the shelter for more than 2 months and we do not know anything about his past life, so we think he deserves some pampering!
ReplyDeleteMy little Moe deserves to win because he is a growing puppy who loves his spa time with mommy. Thanks for the great Royal Canin review. It will be the next brand that we try!
ReplyDeleteMy dear Bebe deserves a doggie day of pampering after having a near death experience last week, Suffered an anaphylaxis shot with a rabies vaccine. My poor baby was places in an oxygen tank, took a steroid shot, and had a dripping IV inserted in her arm. She's OK now but was very weak and ill for 3 full days.
ReplyDeleteMy tiny Itsy deserves a day of pampering. She's my 4 lb Chihuahua ......and it's a hard job being so tiny in a big world. :) Her 3 bigger (5 - 6 lb) sisters sometimes take advantage of her size and take her toys from her and can play too rough. She also can't aways go where the "big" dogs can and can be left out. I'd love to pamper her and give her some special feel good time : )
ReplyDeleteAlso the dogs would love to try the new Royal Canin X-small dog food!! Thanks for the chance!
Snoopy greets us enthusiastically every day when we get home from work. We would love to reward her enthusiasm with a day of pampering, just for her!
ReplyDeleteMing deserves a day of pampering because she is a shelter dog...had some hard beginnings! She works hard everyday to please us!
ReplyDeleteAw these items would be perfect for my doggy. I sually bring my pup for a dog grooming in long island and I know when I groom him at home, I can be as good as they are.
