Large dogs are known for their working abilities, and prove to be wonderful herding, tracking, rescue guards and assistance dogs. Large dogs use a lot of energy. Their lively temperament, combined with a large body mass, puts stress on their joints.

Maxi dogs are also particularly prone to sensitive digestion. Their digestive tract is proportionally much smaller than a small dog’s one (around 3.3% of the Maxi dog’s bodyweight, compared to around 7% for a Mini breed dog). Moreover the increased permeability of the small intestine, a reduced ability to absorb sodium and an increased fermentation due to a longer transit time within the colon can lead to wet, soft and bad smelling stools. A good quality diet, highly digestible will support digestive tolerance. Royal Canin Maxi addresses the needs of the large dog throughout their growth period. The nutrients help limit inflammation of the joints and improve their digestive system.
